N2 - The paper reviews the basic concepts of accelerator mass spectrometry and presents new areas of research investigated in various disciplines. Recent biomedical studies are described. Measurements of cosmogenic 59Ni in samples of extra-terrestrial material at different AMS facilities equipped with large-size accelerators are reviewed. Comparison is made between the different experimental methods used for 59Ni detection. Exploratory experiments in accelerator mass spectrometry combined with selective excitation of ions by a laser are described.
