Terrestrial ages of Antarctic meteorites measured by thermoluminescence of the fusion crust

The acquired doses of 14 Antarctic meteorites were measured using the thermoluminescent (TL) intensity of the fusion crust. It was found that there is a good correlation between the acquired TL doses and the terrestrial ages, which were previously measured by the cosmogenic radionuclide abundance.
