Journal ArticleDOI
Dating a stalactite by electron paramagnetic resonance
TL;DR: In this article, the presence of a radiation-induced defect in the growing stalactites of Japan's main calcite caverns was reported and an estimation of the accumulated defect concentration at several positions, using EPR, makes it possible to determine the age and growth rate of stalactite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dating of a fault by electron spin resonance on intrafault materials.
TL;DR: The total dose of natural radiation and the age were determined from paramagnetic defects in quartz grains at a fractured fault zone, indicating that the accumulated defects in rocks were destroyed by high stress or high temperature at the time of the last fault movement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron Spin Resonance Dating of Animal and Human Bones
Motoji Ikeya,Toshikatsu Miki +1 more
TL;DR: Ages of fossil bones were determined by electron spin resonance spectroscopy, which has the advantage that the sample need not be ground or heated, and it should be useful for dating biological materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dating of Fossil Shells with Electron Spin Resonance
Motoji Ikeya,Kazuo Ohmura +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used ESR signals of defects in sea shells from northern Japan whose ages are known from the sediments or from the radioisotope dating to determine the age of shells from a few thousand to a million years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of ESR ages of corals from marine terraces with 14C and 230Th/234U ages
Motoji Ikeya,Kazuo Ohmura +1 more
TL;DR: The ages of corals from marine terraces in the Ryukyu Islands of Japan have been determined by electron spin resonance (ESR) ages deduced from the total dosage of natural radiation taking the time-dependent dose rate due to 238 U-series disequilibrium into account agreed fairly well with those determined by 14 C and 230 Th/ 234 U dating as discussed by the authors.
