Impact of dose and heating rate on thermoluminescence kinetics in aquamarine (BeAl(SiO):Fe).

The study of a thermoluminescent (TL) material begins with the response of the material to different doses of radiation and different rates of heating (Bos, 2006a), For this reason, the present work deals with the possible variations of the kinetic parameters for two groups of glow curves of beryl in its variety known as aquamarine. (BeAl(SiO): Fe). The exposure and reading process was performed in a RISO TL/OSL DA-20 reader at room temperature.
