title: Advanced multistage deconvolution applied to composite glow peak 5 in LiF:Mg,Ti (TLD-100).
abstract: The effects of 'slow-cooling' on the structure of composite peak 5 following low-ionisation density beta/gamma irradiation are described and analysed in both 'slow-cooled' and 'normally-cooled' samples. Computerised glow curve deconvolution is employed with constrained 'peak-shape' parameters deduced from anciliary studies using 4 eV and 5 eV optical excitation.
