Lumineszenzlabor

Das Heidelberger Lumineszenzlabor wurde im Sommer 2007 von der ehemaligen Forschungsstelle Archäometrie der Heidelberger Akademie der Wissenschaften in die Trägerschaft der Universität Heidelberg überführt. Das Labor dient der optischen Datierung von Sedimenten und Gesteinsoberflächen sowie der wissenschaftlichen und technologischen Weiterentwicklung der Methode der optisch stimulierten Lumineszenzdatierung.
