University of Texas Radiocarbon Dates III

Abstract

This list reports measurements made at this laboratory since the preparation of the last list (Texas II). About twenty measurements are not reported because they are from series which are incomplete. Ages were calculated using a C¹⁴ half-life of 5568 yr and 1950 as the reference year. The modern standard used was 95% of NBS oxalic acid activity. The deviations reported are based on the counting statistics of the sample, background, and modern, and are ±1σ except that when the sample count approached either the modern standard or the background, 2σ limits are reported.
