Simultaneous in situ Analysis of U-Pb Age and Hf Isotopes of Zircon by Laser Ablation´Sector-Field (MC-) ICP-MS

[todd-linden]

In comparison to quadrupole ICP-MS instruments3 the ELEMENT XR sector-field ICP-MS is at least one order of magnitude more sensitive and as a consequence the statistical uncertainty on 204 Pb is significantly improved.
