OSL dates for the ancient geometric earthworks of Kazakhstan
Archaeological Research in Asia, 2016Abstract Large-scale earthworks ranging from 90 m to over 400 m in length, recently discovered in northern Kazakhstan, have come to be commonly named as the “Geoglyphs of Turgai”. These monuments mainly have been found in northern Kazakhstan within the Turgai deflection.

OSL properties of NaCl relative to dating and dosimetry
Radiation Measurements, 2000Abstract The luminescence properties of NaCl are discussed. Attention is focussed predominantly upon the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signal (UV emission) of NaCl (420–560 nm stimulation). The results from experiments relevant to geological dating applications, such as signal resetting, dose response and thermal stability, are described ...

Simultaneous OSL and TL dating of sediments
Quaternary Science Reviews, 2001Abstract This paper presents examples of application of simultaneous OSL and TL dating to samples from two different sedimentary environments that usually give rise to a number of interpretation problems. The presented method provides means of quantifying the effectiveness of bleaching of grains during depositional processes and consequently enables ...

Progress towards a polymineral single-aliquot OSL dating procedure
Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2006Published single-aliquot regenerative-dose (SAR) procedures for quartz use a 'cutheat' different from the pre-heat. In contrast, previous work has shown that the SAR procedure can be used to correct for sensitivity changes exhibited by feldspars if the cutheat is equal to the pre-heat. In this paper, a procedure that corrects for sensitivity changes in

OSL dating of sediments from the Gobi Desert, Southern Mongolia
Quaternary Geochronology, 2010Abstract The present study focuses on the chronological relationship between alternating dune sand and silty water-lain sediments in the central part of the Khongoryn Els dune field in the Gobi Desert, Southern Mongolia. The 23 m high section evolved from the construction of a natural dam by west–east moving sand dunes and fluvial inundation by a ...

Application of OSL dating on coastal sediments
2011The main aim of this research work is the application of contemporary techniques in optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating to reveal the chronology of coastal deposits from various geographical and geological settings and to investigate the relationship between periods of sediment accumulation and climate change.

Towards the development of a preheat procedure for OSL dating of quartz
Radiation Measurements, 1998Abstract Isothermal decay data for the natural optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) of a quartz sample from the Kimberley region of Western Australia are presented. These show that >99% of the initial OSL signal measured using a broad-band blue/green-light stimulation source is derived from a single trap.
