Scientific paper

Thermoluminescence (TL) from silicate minerals has been used by planetary geoscientists to investigate a variety of topics such as: transient lunar phenomena, lunar heat flow characteristics, space radiation exposure and thermal history of meteorites, and terrestrial residence time of meteorites. Recently an advanced related technique, optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), has been proposed as an age-dating method for sedimentary deposits on Mars. Dating applications of TL and OSL can be complicated by a property, notably present in feldspars, known as anomalous fading. A functional definition of anomalous fading is a loss of charge from thermally stable defect sites via athermal mechanisms, resulting in a decrease in dose-related luminescence over time.
