Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) age and supporting data for sample JQ200-OSL1. by Rémy Crassard (118552)

“…Of the 2951 grains rejected, 2640 were discarded because the OSL signals were too dim to discern above background, and 311 were rejected on the basis of feldspar contamination, high ‘recuperation’ or a poor ‘recycling ratio’. The weighted mean D_e was calculated for the remaining grains using the Central Age Model <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0068061#pone.0068061-Galbraith1" target="_blank">[70]</a>, after discarding three values (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0068061#pone-0068061-g005" target="_blank">Figure 5</a>) that differ from the weighted mean by >2σ and have normalised median absolute deviations of >1.5 <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0068061#pone.0068061-Powell1" target="_blank">[126]</a>. …”
