Abstract
A liquid nitrogen cryostat, suitable for the recording of thermoluminescence glow curves and for the spectral analysis of these curves is described. The necessity of maintaining isothermal conditions within the samples during both irradiation at 77 K and subsequent heating to 273 K is emphasized. Some results are presented for polyethylene and polystyrene.Keywords
