Abstract
The 1 MV AMS system of Laboratorio Nacional de Espectrometría de Masas con Acelerador (LEMA) has been used to measure the meteoric 10Be. The preliminary results of 10Be/9Be ratios in PM10 from Mexico City are presented. The aim of this work is to provide new data for meteoric 10Be/10Be ratios in this kind of samples. The radiochemical procedure to extract the 10Be in aerosols collected in quartz filters has been modified and adapted in LEMA laboratory.
