OSL technique for studies of jasper samples
نویسندگان
چکیده
Jasper samples (green, red, brown, ocean and striped) were studied in relation to their optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dosimetric properties, in this work. Since 2000, the radiation metrology group of IPEN has studied different stones as new materials for application in high-dose dosimetry. The jasper samples were exposed to different radiation doses, using the Gamma-cell 220 system (Co) of IPEN. Calibration curves were obtained for the jasper samples between 50 Gy and 300 kGy. The reproducibility of the OSL response and the lower detection doses were determined. All five types of jasper samples showed their usefulness as irradiation indicators and as high-dose dosimeters, using the OSL technique. & 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Study of agate using the OSL technique and application in
The possibility of using Brazilian stones in gamma high-dose dosimetry was investigated at IPEN using the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) technique. Agate samples were studied in relation to their OSL dosimetric properties, in this work. The samples were irradiated at a Gamma-Cell system (Co). The calibration curves show a sublinear behavior between 50 Gy and 300 kGy, and the lower dete...

Onyx samples were studied in this work to verify their dosimetric properties. The Onyx stone is considered nobler than marble. At IPEN, the radiation metrology group has studied new materials for application in highdose dosimetry. The Onyx samples were exposed using a Gamma-Cell 220 system ( 60 Co), for doses of 50 Gy up to 300 kGy. The lower detection doses, the reproducibility of the OSL resp...
متن کاملEPR and OSL emergency dosimetry with teeth: A direct comparison of two techniques
The OSL dosimetry technique with teeth has been validated against the EPR dosimetry technique through a measurement comparison performed on the same teeth. The OSL reconstructed doses were found to be in agreement with corresponding EPR doses. Minimum measurable doses for the OSL technique were estimated to be in the range 0.9e1.5 Gy for measurements made within 24 h post-exposure if OSL signal...

Several table vitamins, minerals and L-lysine amino acid have been preliminarily tested as potential emergency dosemeters using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) techniques. Radiation-induced EPR signals were detected in samples of vitamin B2 and L-lysine while samples of multivitamins of different brands as well as mineral Mg demonstrated promine...

Thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) techniques are known as a research tools for the study of phosphor materials and for their applications in radiation dosimetry in particular [1]. Although TL technique is known since several decades, OSL is relatively newer technique. The TL or OSL emission from an irradiated sample arises upon stimulation with heat or light re...
