The new 14C dating system of the Geological Survey of Finland consists of three CO2 proportional counters of conventional size, a liquid scintillation anticoincidence guard, and a passive shield of about 90-year-old iron. The counting room is an air-conditioned Faraday cage constructed of concrete with aggregate of crystalline Precambrian limestone. We apply pulse-shape discrimination that greatly improves the precision of our 14C analyses - the reduction of background is over 70%, while the modern count rate is reduced only by 15 to 20%. The purity of the counting gas is monitored by recording the cosmic muon pulse-height spectrum. At present, the dating limit for a two-day measurement is 57 ka. We summarize here the most significant results and aspects of pulse-shape discrimination

AbstractThe experiment SONG (SOlar Neutron and Gamma rays) for the low altitude satellite CORONAS-I is described. The instrument is capable to provide gamma-ray line and continuum detection in the energy range 0.1 – 100 MeV as well as detection of neutrons with energies above 30 MeV. As a by-product, the electrons in the range 11 – 108 MeV will be measured too. The pulse shape discrimination technique (PSD) is used.
