PRELIMINARY OSL STUDIES ON BEIGE SEPIOLITES

2008-09-01
Radiation-induced luminescence signals in beige sepiolite samples were investigated using optically stimulated luminescence. A thermally stable, light-sensitive radiation-induced signal was detected, and radiation dose response and thermal properties of this signal were studied. The thermal stability and dose sensitivity of the signal implies the potential of the material for dating and retrospective radiation dosimetry.

Experimental determination of the dose deposition profile of a Sr-90 beta source
GAZA, R; Bulur, Enver; McKeever, S. W. S.; Soares, C. G. (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2006-09-01)
Three different methods for characterising the dose deposition profile of a Sr-90/Y-90 radioactive source are described: GAFChromic film dosimetry, Thermoluminescence (TL) and Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL). For the film measurements, GAFChromic film samples were stacked at different depths between polyethylene terephthalate (PET) foils. For TL, the thickness of a TLD-500 dosemeter was gradually reduced by polishing and the TL from chips of different thickness was used in conjunction with a mathema...
Forward problem solution of electromagnetic source imaging using a new BEM formulation with high-order elements
Gençer, Nevzat Güneri (IOP Publishing, 1999-09-01)
Representations of the active cell populations on the cortical surface via electric and magnetic measurements are known as electromagnetic source images (EMSIs) of the human brain. Numerical solution of the potential and magnetic fields for a given electrical source distribution in the human brain is an essential part of electromagnetic source imaging. In this study, the performance of the boundary element method (BEM) is explored with different surface element types. A new BEM formulation is derived that m...
Time-resolved OSL studies of YAlO3:Mn2+ crystals
Zhydachevskii, Ya.; LUCHECHKO, A; MARABA, DİREN; MARTYNYUK, N; GLOWACKİ, M; Bulur, Enver; UBİZSKİİ, S; BERKOWSKİ, M; SUCHOCKİ, A (2016-11-01)
Time-Resolved Optically Stimulated Luminescence (TR-OSL) from single crystalline YAlO3:Mn2+ samples was investigated using a green light emitting diode (lambda- 525nm) as stimulation light source. The TR-OSL decay curve of the material can be described with a single exponential decay function with a lifetime about 80 ms that does not depend on irradiation dose in the range from 50 mGy to 1 kGy. This OSL decay is superposed on a photoluminescence signal with a much shorter (3.5 ms) decay lifetime. The Mn2+ p...
Experimental results for 2D magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (MR-EIT) using magnetic flux density in one direction
Birgul, O; Eyüboğlu, Behçet Murat; Ider, YZ (IOP Publishing, 2003-11-07)
Magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (MR-EIT) is an emerging imaging technique that reconstructs conductivity images using magnetic flux density measurements acquired employing MRI together with conventional EIT measurements. In this study, experimental MR-EIT images from phantoms with conducting and insulator objects are presented. The technique is implemented using the 0.15 T Middle East Technical University MRI system. The dc current method used in magnetic resonance current density imaging...
ESTIMATION OF TISSUE RESISTIVITIES FROM MULTIPLE-ELECTRODE IMPEDANCE MEASUREMENTS
Eyüboğlu, Behçet Murat; WOLF, PD (IOP Publishing, 1994-01-01)
In order to measure in vivo resistivity of tissues in the thorax, the possibility of combining anatomical data extracted from high-resolution images with multiple-electrode impedance measurements, a priori knowledge of the range of tissue resistivities, and a priori data on the instrumentation noise is assessed in this study. A statistically constrained minimum-mean-square error estimator (MIMSEE) that minimizes the effects of linearization errors and instrumentation noise is developed and compared to the c...
