[en] Tabulations of decay data and dose rate calculations that are necessary for TL dating are presented. An effort has been made to collect the latest evaluated data and to catalog them in a form that is easily accessible, so that they may be updated as new revised values are reported. It is suggested that the largest error in thermoluminescence dating will come from sources other than the tabulated particle energies and branching ratios. These include: (a) the alpha to beta thermoluminescence efficiency determination; (b) concentration measurements of K, Rb, Th, and U; (c) all departures from secular equilibrium in the uranium and thorium decay chains; and (d) the imprecise calibration of laboratory radiation sources
