Luminescence from quartz is commonly used in retrospective dosimetry, in particular for the
dating of archaeological materials and sediments from the Quaternary period. The …

This paper reviews recent research on the application of the physical dosimetry techniques
of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and luminescence (optically stimulated …

Herein, porous nano-silicon has been synthesized via a highly scalable heat scavenger-
assisted magnesiothermic reduction of beach sand. This environmentally benign, highly …

Luminescence dating is a tool frequently used for age determination of Quaternary materials
such as archaeological artefacts, volcanic deposits and a variety of sediments from different …

The decline of several of the world's largest deltas has spurred interest in expensive coastal
restoration projects to make these economically and ecologically vital regions more …

Loess deposits preserve important records of Quaternary climate change and atmospheric
dust flux; however, their full significance can only be revealed once a reliable chronology is …

The common view that frequent overbank flooding leads to gradual aggradation of alluvial
strata on floodplains and delta plains has been challenged by a variety of studies that …

Time and circumstances for the disappearance of Neanderthals and its relationship with the
advent of Modern Humans are not yet sufficiently resolved, especially in case of the Iberian …

The effect of the presence of feldspars that can be shown to exhibit anomalous fading is
investigated using the double-SAR protocol. This protocol has been suggested as a method …

Luminescence dating has truly transformed the science of deserts and drylands and has
