Abstract

Microdosimetric phenomenae, not addressed by conventional kinetic calculations in the framework of "conduction band/valence band" atomic models, play an important role in the thermoluminescence (TL) dose response and the relative TL efficiency of various types of radiation fields of different microscopic patterns of ionization density (1). In this paper we discuss Track Interaction Model (TIM) calculations of the heavy charged particle (HCP) induced TL linearity and supralinearity of the various glow peaks of LiF:Mg,Ti,OH.
