A new multi-isotope plutonium standard for isotopic ratio measurements with Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) was created by gravimetric mixing of different single-isotope standards provided by IRMM (Pu-239, Pu-240, Pu-242, Pu-244). This standard material has been measured at the AMS facilities at Canberra (Australia), Cologne (Germany), Caserta (Italy), Sevilla (Spain) and Zurich (Switzerland). Additionally, the material was characterized using a Neptune MC-ICPMS (multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry) at the joint Cologne-Bonn isotope facility. The results of this laboratory intercomparison are presented and consensus values for the isotope compositions of the standard material are proposed.
