calRcyRcp: Recycling ratio and recuperation calculation

In numOSL: Numeric Routines for Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dating

Recycling ratio and recuperation calculation

Description

Calculating recycling ratio, recuperation, and associated standard errors.

Usage

calRcyRcp(Curvedata, Ltx)

Arguments

Curvedata	matrix(required): a three-column matrix (i.e., regenerative doses, sensitivity-corrected regenerative-dose signals, and associated standard errors)
Ltx	vector(required): a two-element vector consists of sensitivity-corrected natural-dose signal and its error

Value

Return a list that contains the following elements:

RecyclingRatio1	the first recycling ratio and its standard error
RecyclingRatio2	the second recycling ratio and its standard error
RecyclingRatio3	the third recycling ratio and its standard error
Recuperation1	the first recuperation (i.e., ratio of the sensitivity-corrected zero-dose signal to natural-dose signal) and its standard error in percent
Recuperation2	the second recuperation (i.e., ratio of the sensitivity-corrected zero-dose signal to maximum regenerative-dose signal) and its standard error in percent

Note

If the sensitivity-corrected signals for the frist, second, and third repeated regenerative doses are R1, R2, and R3, respectively, then RecyclingRatio1=R2/R1, RecyclingRatio2=R3/R1, and
RecyclingRatio3=R3/R2.
