Center for Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (CAMS) at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory; Center for Applied Isotope Studies (CAIS) at University of Georgia. DirectAMS (D-AMS) radiocarbon labs in Bothell, WA & Seattle, WA; Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan
As a laboratory, part of its aim is to function as a research center, training center, and general community resource. Its stated mission is conducting original research in cosmogenic isotopes. The AMS laboratory was established in 1981 at the University of Arizona. [1] [2] This laboratory is used primarily to provide radiocarbon measurements
The facility has a custom-made 3 mega-volt tandem accelerator mass spectrometer. [2] It also has a 200 sample ion source, a high resolution, 120° injection magnet, a 90° high energy analysis magnet (mass-energy product 350 MeV-AMU), a 65°, 1.7 m radius electric analyzer and a 2 channel gas ionization detector.

Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) is a form of mass spectrometry that accelerates ions to extraordinarily high kinetic energies before mass analysis. The special strength of AMS among the different methods of mass spectrometry is its ability to separate a rare isotope from an abundant neighboring mass ("abundance sensitivity", e.g. 14 C from 12 C).

DEVCOM Aviation & Missile Center is currently headquartered at the Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. DEVCOM Aviation & Missile Center has over 1.9 million square feet of laboratory space that is devoted to improving sensors and electronics, propulsion system, aerodynamic structures, modeling and simulation, life cycle software development, and technical testing.
A number of US Geological Survey employees were assigned to the US Army Corps of Engineers 29th Engineers, a map organization, during World War I. Major G.S. Smith commanded part of the 29th Engineers, a map making and topographical unit, with 53 officers and 146 men transferred from the US Geological Survey.
The Wadsworth Center, originally the New York State's Antitoxin Laboratory, was established in 1901. Its mission was to standardize and manufacture antitoxin, which was for the treatment of communicable diseases such as diphtheria and anthrax. In 1914, the Antitoxin Laboratory was designated the Division of Laboratories and Research.
