Abstract

Several methods have been developed in the analysis of the thermoluminescence glow peaks, and in particular when applied to thermoluminescence (TL) dosimetry and TL dating of archaeological and geological minerals. Some of these methods are identical to those developed for the study of thermal desorption. Such a method is called half-width method where a shape factor is introduced. Recently TL decay and thermal desorption process have been studied using a nonextensive formalism, namely Tsallis thermostatistics. In the present work, we consider the half-width method because it is the easiest one to estimate the activation energy. Importantly, we give the generalized form of the activation energy for all order of kinetics. We also investigate the influence of the nonextensivity on the shape factor parameter and on the activation energy.
