Abstract
In a previous paper by Razdan, Brennan, and Grossweiner, it was shown that theoretical thermoluminescence (TL) glow curves for first‐order kinetics and the temperature‐independent preexponential factor can be successfully generated using an analog computer. The present work was undertaken to extend the computer program to include second‐order kinetics as well as the temperature dependence of the preexponential factor in both the first‐ and second‐order kinetics. The theoretical TL glow curves obtained with the new programs are reported here. Also reported are the details of the programs developed: the amplitude and time scaling procedures, sample calculations of the initial conditions, and potentiometer settings.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
