## Abstract The anomalous fading (AF) of the Thermoluminescence (TL) signal has been observed in Durango apatite, and is believed to be caused by electrons transferred to the recombination sites via a tunnelling effect. The AF factor is a property unique for each glowβpeak of a glowβcurve and shows
The thermoluminescence (TL) method can be used to discriminate irradiated and non-irradiated paprika. This study reports the polymineral composition of the dust adhered to paprika ; radiation-speciΓc luminescence is emitted by the inorganic material (mainly quartz, feldspars and calcite). On the bas
Almraet--Many of the minerals used for archaeological dating employing thermoluminescence (TL) exhibit anomalous fading to some extent. It is known for zircon that radiation damage, caused by the decay of uranium and thorium present in it as impurities, adversely affects the TL sensitivity as well a
