Thermoluminescence and optically stimulated luminescence properties of natural barytes
(Elsevier Ltd, 2010-12)
Heavy, baryte-loaded, concrete is commonly used as radiation shielding material around high energy particle accelerators. Concrete samples received from a shielding block located at CERN cite contain many crystalline ...
Component-resolved thermal stability and recuperation study of the LM-OSL curves of four sedimentary quartz samples
(Elsevier Ltd, 2007-09)
Thermal stability as well as recuperation stands among the crucial general characteristics of different OSL components in quartz. Through a series of thermal stability and recuperation experiments, in conjunction with curve ...
Equivalent dose in quartz from young samples using the SAR protocol and the effect of preheat temperature
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2006-09)
Major concerns in the dating of samples younger than a few hundred years by the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) technique are thermal transfer and partial bleaching. Thermal transfer during preheating enhances the ...
Component resolved OSL dose response and sensitization of various sedimentary quartz samples
(Elsevier Ltd, 2007-02)
The structure of the linearly modulated optically stimulated luminescence (LM-OSL) signal was studied for four sedimentary quartz samples, collected from different sites around Istanbul, Turkey. Applying a computerized ...
TL/OSL properties of crystalline inclusions from heavy, barytes loaded, concrete
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010-03)
In the present work, we report the luminescence data obtained from heavy, barytes loaded, concrete containing many crystalline inclusions, extracted from a shielding block located at CERN. The use of both Thermoluminescence ...
Optical stimulated luminescence dating study of eolianite on the Island of Bozcaada, Turkey: Preliminary results
(The Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2010-07)
In the present paper, eolianite exposed on the south coast of the semiarid island of Bozcaada, Turkey, was investigated on the basis of geomorphologic and petrographic data, and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) ...
A new late holocene eolianite record from Altinkum Beach, North Cyprus
(Scientific technical research council Turkey-Tubitak, 2012-06)
In this study, we investigated the main depositional characteristics and obtained Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) ages of coastal eolianite on the north coast of Cyprus, where this occurrence had not previously ...
In-homogeneity in the pre-dose sensitization of the 110 degrees C TL peak in various quartz samples: The influence of annealing
(Elsevier Science BV, 2012-03-01)
The pre-dose sensitization effect of the 110 degrees C TL glow-peak of quartz is a basic tool in thermoluminescence and optically stimulated luminescence dating and retrospective dosimetry. In the present work, a homogeneity ...
The correlation of fast OSL component with the TL peak at 325 degrees C in quartz of various origins
(Elsevier Science BV, 2010-02)
The fast component of the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signal in quartz is the basic tool for the optical dating. Its relation with the thermoluminescence (TL) glow-peak at about 325 degrees C is well established ...
Dissolution and subsequent re-crystallization as zeroing mechanism, thermal properties and component resolved dose response of salt (NaCl) for retrospective dosimetry
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011-09)
In the present study we report dosimetric properties of iodized salt aiming at using it as an accidental luminescent dosimeter. It was found that the very good sensitivity of its main dosimetric peak is strongly affected ...
