Kinetic modeling of thermoluminescence, optical absorption and bleaching in LiF:Mg,Ti

Abstract

In this paper we describe some aspects of our recent work which treats via kinetic simulations the experimentally observed linear/supralinear/saturating dose response of the thermoluminescence, optical absorption and behavior of optical bleaching at various photon energies in irradiated LiF:Mg,Ti (TLD-100) system in a physically realistic scenario. The results of the simulations are in good agreement with the experimental observations and this can be considered as a validation of the details of the proposed models.
