Luminescence Dating

2021
Luminescence dating is part of a suite of trapped charge dating techniques used in Quaternary research. It is a geochronological technique which provides absolute dating for geological events and archeological artifacts from the late Quaternary and, with a dateable age range between a few years and a few hundred thousand years, has become a broadly ...

Luminescence Dating Relevant to Human Origins

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1992
Luminescence dating provided the first direct and independent evidence that anatomically modern humans had a presence in western Asia earlier than is consistent with the ‘regional continuity’ model. The reliability of the result concerned, 92 ( ± 5) ka for burnt flints from Qafzeh Cave, is excellent and consistent with isochron analysis of the data ...

Luminescence Dating Protocols and Dating Range

2013
Half a century after the publication of the first Thermoluminescence (TL) ages, the field of Luminescence Dating has reached a level of maturity. Both research and applications from all fields of archaeological science, from archaeological materials to anthropology and geoarchaeology, now routinely employ luminescence dating.

Luminescence Dating, Uncertainties and Age Range

2014
Luminescence ages have an uncertainty of at least 4–5 %, mainly due to systematic errors in both dose rate (conversion factors) and equivalent dose (source calibration) estimation. In most cases, the uncertainty will be higher, due to random errors (e.g., spread in equivalent doses) or uncertainty in assumptions (e.g., water content fluctuations ...

Dating Stone Alignments by Luminescence

Advances in Archaeological Practice, 2015
AbstractStone alignments, including tipi rings and drive lines, are abundant on the northern Plains and adjacent Rocky Mountains, but they have been notoriously difficult to date. This paper applies luminescence dating to sediments directly underneath the rocks to estimate the age of placement of the rock.

A portable luminescence dating instrument

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 2011
Abstract We describe a portable luminescence reader suitable for use in remote localities in the field. The instrument weighs about 8 kg and is based around a 30 mm bialkali photomultiplier detecting signals through a glass filter centered on 340 nm. Stimulation is by 470 nm blue LEDs (24 W in total) operating in both continuous wave and pulsed mode;
