Simulating feldspar luminescence phenomena using R

Kinetic models have been used extensively for modeling and numerical simulation of luminescence phenomena dating techniques various dosimetric materials. Several comprehensive implemented quartz, which allow complex sequences irradiation thermal/optical events in nature the laboratory. In this paper, we present a simple accurate way simulating similarly feldspars. We introduce open-access R scripts Feldspar Simulation Functions (FSF) kinetic model These functions offer useful tools to perform simulations user-friendly manner. The mathematical framework four different types previously published is presented uniform way, are simulated with FSF. While versions these require integration differential equations, FSF circumvent need by using summations over finite range parameters. process can be understood easily creating transparent consisting compact functions. key physical concept that treatments feldspars change distribution nearest neighbor (NN) distances donor-acceptor pairs. changes described analytical equations within examined paper. NN at end one stage becomes initial next being simulated. practical examples possible applications extensions discussed.
