RLumCarlo-package.Rd
A collection of functions to simulate luminescence production in dosimetric materials using Monte-Carlo methods. Implemented are models for delocalised, localised and tunnelling transitions. Supported stimulation modes are TL, CW-OSL, LM-OSL, LM-IRSL, and ITL (ISO-TL).
Funding
The development of RLumCarlo benefited from the support by various funding bodies:
The initial work by Johannes Friedrich, Sebastian Kreutzer and Christoph Schmidt was supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, 2015–2018, SCHM 3051/4-1, "Modelling quartz luminescence signal dynamics relevant for dating and dosimetry", SCHM 3051/4-1).
Later work (2018-2019) was secured through the project "ULTIMO: Unifying Luminescence Models of quartz and feldspar DAAD: Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (German Academic Exchange Service). Framework: DAAD PPP USA 2018, ID: 57387041.
The work of Sebastian Kreutzer as maintainer of the package was supported by LabEx LaScArBx (ANR - n. ANR-10-LABX-52) between 2017 and 2019.
From 2020, Sebastian Kreutzer received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 844457.
