LED2023 Conference in Copenhagen

Vom 25.Juni bis zum 30.Juni 2023 reisten viele unser Teammitglieder mit AG-Chef Tony Reimann nach Kopenhagen in Dänemark zur 17. LED, der International Luminescence and Electron Spin Resonance Dating conference. Die LED ist die wichtigste Fachkonferenz für die Präsentation neuster Forschungen aus der Lumineszenz- und ESR-Datierungs Community. Von der Arbeitsgruppe wurden spannende Beiträge gehalten:

Während des Konferenz Workshops zu "Rock surface luminescence dating", hielt Svenja Riedesel einen Vortrag über: "Dose rate across rock interfaces" und hielt außerdem zusätzlich einen Vortrag über: "Linking feldspar luminescence phenomena and mineralogy using spatially resolved techniques".

CLL-Laborleiter Dominik Brill stellte ein Poster zu: "Luminescence-based chronology and transport dynamics of tsunami backwash deposits from the shelf of Portugal" vor.

PhD-Student Arindam Biswas aus dem ANR-DFG-Projekt "Wearing Down" päsentierte ein Poster mit dem Titel: "Understanding sediment transport using pIRIR signal from feldspar single grain supported by terrestrial cosmogenic radionuclides" , zu ersten Ergbenissen seines Promotionsvorhabens. Auch PhD-Studentin Lousie Karman-Besson von der Projektpartneruni aus Toulouse, stelle ein Poster vor: "Alongstream single-grain luminescence signal along a pluvio-metric gradient in Chile: A preliminary dataset".

Ebenfalls mit dabei war Anne Guyez von Projektpartner Uni aus Toulouse, die einen spannenden Vortrag über ihre angeschlossene Doktorarbeit hielt: "Using single-grain feldspar luminescence to decipher river landscape and sediment dynamics". Mit unserer Arbeitsgruppe verbunden ist auch: Anna-Maartje de Boer, Doktorandin an der Universität Wageningen. Auch mit ihrer Präsentation zum Thema: "Testing the performance of an EMCCD camera in measuring single grain feldspar (thermo)luminescence" konntet sie die Konferenzteilnehmenden begeistern.

Auch die beiden PhD-Studentinnen Linda Maßon und Aline Zinelabedin aus dem CRC1211 ("Earth evolution at the dry limit") zeigten spannende Ergebnisse aus ihren Projekten. Anregende Diskussionen wurden an Alines Poster zum Thema: "Testing the attenuation of light in evaporite-dominated sediments from the Atacama Desert" geführt.

Linda gewann mit ihrem Poster: "Testing the applicability of standardised growth curves (SGC) for single-grain pIRIR measurements of chemically heterogenous feldspars from the Atacama Desert, Chile.", sogar den Vagn-Mejdahl-Preis für die beste Posterpräsentation der Tagung. Herzlichen Glückwunsch!

------------------

From June 25 to June 30, 2023, many of our team members traveled with working group leader Tony Reimann to Copenhagen, Denmark for the 17th LED, the International Luminescence and Electron Spin Resonance Dating conference. The LED is the most important conference for presenting the latest research from the luminescence and ESR dating community. Exciting contributions were given by the working group:

During the conference workshop on rock surface luminescence dating Svenja Riedesel  gave a presentation on: "Dose rate across rock interfaces" and also gave a talk on: "Linking fieldspar luminescence phenomena and mineralogy using spatially resolved techniques".

CLL lab manager Dominik Brill presented a poster on: "Luminescence-based chronology and transport dynamics of tsunami backwash deposits from the shelf of Portugal".

PhD student Arindam Biswas from the ANR-DFG project "Wearing Down" presented a poster entitled: "Understanding sediment transport using pIRIR signal from feldspar single grain supported by terrestrial cosmogenic radionuclides" , on first results of his PhD project. Also PhD student Lousie Karman-Besson from the project partner University of Toulouse, presented a poster: "Alongstream single-grain luminescence signal along a pluvio-metric gradient in Chile: A preliminary dataset".

Also participating was Anne Guyez from project partner Uni from Toulouse, who gave an exciting talk about her PhD thesis: "Using single-grain feldspar luminescence to decipher river landscape and sediment dynamics". Also associated with our research group is: Anna-Maartje de Boer, PhD student at Wageningen University. She also impressed the conference participants with her presentation "Testing the performance of an EMCCD camera in measuring single grain feldspar (thermo)luminescence" .

The two PhD students Linda Maßon and Aline Zinelabedin from CRC1211 ("Earth evolution at the dry limit") also showed exciting results from their projects. Stimulating discussions were held at Aline's poster on: "Testing the attenuation of light in evaporite-dominated sediments from the Atacama Desert".

Linda even won the Vagn-Mejdahl-award for the best poster presentation of the LED with her poster: "Testing the applicability of standardised growth curves (SGC) for single-grain pIRIR measurements of chemically heterogeneous feldspars from the Atacama Desert, Chile.". Congratulations!
