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 ...
Investigation of OSL signals from very deep traps in unfired and fired quartz samples
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010-03-15)
This paper presents an attempt to isolate experimentally optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signals which may originate from very deep traps (VDT) in quartz samples. As VDT we consider those traps which are responsible ...
Relative response of TL and component-resolved OSL to alpha and beta radiations in annealed sedimentary quartz
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011-10)
Knowledge of the relative luminescence response to alpha and beta radiation is very important in TL and OSL dating. In the present study the relative alpha to beta response is studied in a sedimentary quartz sample, ...
Preliminary TL And Osl Investigations Of Obsidian Samples
(UNIV AGEAN, DEPT MEDITERRANEAN STUD, 2010)
Obsidian is a volcaniclastic mineral extremely hard to break, which was used in prehistoric Greece (and elsewhere in the World), in order to provide tools, weapons, knives and arrowheads. The present work aims to characterize ...
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 ...
Preliminary results towards the equivalence of transformed continuous-wave Optically Stimulated Luminescence (CW-OSL) and linearly-modulated (LM-OSL) signals in quartz
(VERSITA, 2011-10)
The present paper presents a comparative experimental study of two commonly measured Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) signals in quartz. The experimental study measures both the continuous wave OSL (CW-OSL) and the ...
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 ...
IRSL dating of a deep water core from Pylos, Greece; comparison to post ir blue osl and tl dating results
(UNIV AGEAN, 2011)
The 'double SAR' protocol procedure permits the determination of two equivalent dose (De) values for each polymineral aliquot; an IRSL De resulting mostly from feldspars along with a post-IR OSL De for a mixed signal for ...
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 ...
Thermal quenching of thermoluminescence in quartz samples of various origins
(UNIV AGEAN, DEPT MEDITERRANEAN STUD, 2010)
The effect of thermal quenching plays an important role in the thermoluminescence (TL) of quartz on which many applications of TL are based. In present work it is investigated that the thermal quenching parameters i.e. the ...
