Paleodose of Quartz in Volcano Ash beside Huguang Maar Lake

Article Preview

Abstract:

Quartz grains were extracted from volcano ash beside Huguang Maar Lake, and the thermoluminescence (TL) of the grains was measured. Based on the thermoluminescence data of quartz the paleodose of volcanic ash beside Huguang Maar Lake was calculated with sensitized revise technique. The calculated TL dose depending on TL about 315C is 75.3±4.8Gy, while the calculated dose depending on TL about 407C is 115±8Gy. A physical model is set up to analyze the difference of the two calculation doses, and it can be seen that the latter is relatively veracious.
