Description

Dose recovery tests using a single aliquot and regenerative dose protocol (SAR) have been performed for sedimentary quartz samples from Ounjougou, a West African Middle Stone Age site. As an underestimate was observed for most samples, the origin of this inaccuracy and solutions to correct it have been investigated
