Chronometric dating methods in geosciences and archaeology — Part 1: Single aliquot regenerative dose procedure and optically stimulated luminescence (SAR-OSL) of quartz — Reporting of equivalent doses and dating results ISO/NP TS 18420

Scope

This document specifies requirements for the reporting of equivalent dose (De) determinations and luminescence dating results deduced from such equivalent doses. The most commonly employed technique in geosciences and archaeology is the SAR-OSL protocol for quartz mineral separates. However, such data reporting requirements applies to luminescence dosimetric method.
