The cosmogenic nuclide Be-10 was analyzed by using accelerator mass spectrometry on an ice core drilled at the Dome Fuji station, inland Antarctica, for 700-1900yr CE. The measured concentration of Be-10 in the Dome Fuji ice core and the derived Be-10 flux show similar fluctuations, with both increasing at known solar-activity minima over the last millennium in agreement with earlier observations of Be-10 and C-14. Based on the similar nature of the Be-10 flux to the reconstructed C-14 production rate patterns, a Be-10-C-14 correlation age model for the Dome Fuji ice core was successfully constructed. This age model agrees well with the initial version of the tephrochronology of the core. The Be-10-flux record contains information on variability in the amount of cosmic radiation incident on the atmosphere, which is mainly attributable to high-frequency change in solar activity and low-frequency background intensity adjustment of the geomagnetic field. High-resolution Be-10 analyses of the Dome Fuji ice cores promise to provide potentially important information on the history of cosmic radiation intensity over the past several hundred thousand years.
