Fission track dating of natural glasses
International Journal of Radiation Applications and Instrumentation. Part D. Nuclear Tracks and Radiation Measurements, 1988Abstract The chief advantage of fission track (f.t.) technique is that it can be used for dating of young volcanic glasses (obsidians) where most other well- established techniques fail. Lipari obsidians from three different lava flows have been dated to check the hypothesis of their historic origin. F.T.

Advances in fission track dating
World Archaeology, 1975Abstract Recent advances in fission track dating have to do with dating of past exposures to thermal chemical or mechanical effects. The latter two effects exist but have yet to be used. In contrast methods of recognizing thermal effects and correcting for them are well developed for glasses.

Fission track dating of apatites
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1968Abstract Fission track dating was applied to a large number of apatites for the first time. In apatite it is easy to identify fission tracks on the (0001) face if one uses the oil immersion technique. Fission tracks in apatite survive 1 m.y. only if the temperature does not exceed 100°C. Apatites taken from different types of rocks from the Odenwald (

Fission-track dating in paleoanthropology
Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, 1996During the last 30 years, fission-track dating has become a versatile geochronological tool.1 Fission-tracks, discovered in the early 1960s,2 were subsequently used to determine the age of minerals and glasses.3 Although low track densities can make fission-track dating tedious and time-consuming, the technique can provide important data for material ...

Standardization of fission track dating methods
International Journal of Radiation Applications and Instrumentation. Part D. Nuclear Tracks and Radiation Measurements, 1988Abstract In order for Fission Track Dating methods (F.T.D.) to be improved and definitively recognized, all laboratories need to agree upon the standards to be used. The first step in this standardization, which has now been repeated several times, was to collect from different laboratories the results of the samples to be dated with all the ...

Fission-Track Dating and Geologic Annealing of Fission Tracks
1979Fission-track dating is one of the newest methods that geologists have to help them determine the ages of minerals and natural glasses. Fission tracks are stable over different temperature intervals in different minerals and glasses,and by dating several different minerals present in a rock it is possible to obtain a better understanding of its thermal
