Abstract

The DosiVox software allows modeling various situations of dosimetric interest for trapped charge dating methods. Simulation of alpha, beta and gamma dose rates are considered here in adapted modeling. The results of numerical simulations are compared with tabulated data of dose attenuation in layers and grains usually used in the dating community. Good agreements are found with the tabulated data, and some limits of usual approximations are highlighted.
