mod_align.peaks: Aligning the TL peaks

In dstreble/TLdating: Tools for Thermoluminescence Dating

Description

This function detects the peak position for each TL curve of the object and aligns them. It uses the average of the testdose maximum positions as reference for the new peak position.

Usage

mod_align.peaks(object, aligning.parameters = list(peak.Tmin = 0, peak.Tmax =
  NA, no.testdose = FALSE), plotting.parameters = list(plot.Tmin = 0,
  plot.Tmax = NA, no.plot = FALSE))

Arguments

object	TLum.Analysis (required): object containing the TL curves that have to be aligned.
aligning.parameters	list (with default): list containing the aligning parameters. See details.
plotting.parameters	list (with default): list containing the plotting parameters. See details.

Details

Aligning parameters
The aligning parameters are:

peak.Tmin

numeric: Lower boundary for looking at the peak maximum position.

peak.Tmax

numeric: Upper boundary for looking at the peak maximum position.

no.testdose

logical: If TRUE, the function will use the Lx curves rather than the Tx curves as reference for the peak maximum position.

Plotting parameters
The plotting parameters are:

no.plot

logical: If TRUE, the results will not be plotted.

Value

This function provides a new TLum.Analysis object with the same TL curves but aligned.
It also plots the original TL curves, the TL curves used to determine the peak maximum position, and the shiffted TL curves using plot_align.peaks.
