Radiocarbon Dating
Nowadays scientists can answer many questions about the past through a technique called radiocarbon (放射), or carbon-14, dating. One key to understanding how and why something happened is to discover when it happened.
Radiocarbon dating was developed in the late 1940s by physicist Willard F. Libby at the University of Chicago. An atom of ordinary carbon, called carbon-12, has six protons (质子) and six neutrons (中子) in its nucleus(原子核). Carbon-14,or C-14,is a radioactive,unstable form of carbon that has two extra neutrons. It returns to a more stable form of carbon through a process called decay(衰减). This process involves the loss of the extra neutrons and energy from the nucleus.
In Libby’s radiocarbon dating technique, the weak radioactive emissions (放射)from this decay process are counted by instruments such as a radiation detector and counter. The decay rate is used to determine the proportion of C-14 atoms in the ’sam
