Thermoluminescence dating

In thermoluminescence dating, a sample of the material is heated, and the light emitted by the sample as a result of the de-excitations of the electrons or holes that are freed from the traps at luminescence centers is measured providing a measure of the trap population density. This signal is compared with one obtained from the same sample after a laboratory irradiation of known dose. The annual dose rate for the clay is calculated from determined concentrations of radioisotopes in the material and assumed or measured environmental radiation intensities. [Pg.419]

Trace-element analysis of metals can give indications of the geographic provenance of the material. Both emission spectroscopy (84) and activation analysis (85) have been used for this purpose. Another tool in provenance studies is the measurement of relative abundances of the lead isotopes (86,87). This technique is not restricted to metals, but can be used on any material that contains lead. Finally, for an object cast around a ceramic core, a sample of the core material can be used for thermoluminescence dating. [Pg.421]
