Abstract
Use of magnetic separation for purifying quartz for luminescence dating
Naomi Porat
33 - 36
The article looks at magnetic separation as a method for removing heavy minerals and most feldspars from quartz.

The luminescence effectiveness of alpha particles in silt-sized quartz originating from different regions in Europe and North America is presented. Single aliquot regenerative dose (SAR) protocols were used along with the a-value system. The study shows that a-values are independent of a sample's origin, but dependent on the alpha- and beta-doses administered. Sensitivity changes induced by alpha-doses administered during a SAR procedure are not corrected by the beta dose induced test dose OSL. For samples displaying a linear beta-dose response an average a-value of 0.03 was found. For samples exhibiting exponential saturating beta-dose response the a-values determined are higher confirming the dose dependence of the alpha effectiveness in quartz.

Summary of a PhD thesis which investigates whether certain geological natural minerals, such as quartz and/or natural calcium fluoride, could be effectively used as Time--Integrating Luminescence Detectors for setting bounds on the strength of interaction of dark matter particles with ordinary matter.
