Bene�tting tremendously from the development of luminescence dating equipment during the last decade and accompanied by improved measurement proto-cols, nowadays luminescence data is produced more and more rapidly. Especially for non-standard dating routines proprietary software solutions are limited. Due to increasing complexity, newly introduced measurement protocols and coping with the needs of �exible data handling, Kreutzer et al. (2012) introduced an R pa-ckage called ‘Luminescence’, designed for luminescence data analysis and visualisation. The package provides a set of tools for this purpose and is continuously under development.

The
R.L
uminescence Bulletin Board
A place where you can ask
questions and discuss problems, con-cerning the luminescence package, with
other users. If you got stuck with an age model or need some help to adopt the functions serving your
needs, place your request at the bulletin board.All you have to do, is to register and post your concern.
You will get access to the board via the R.Luminescence-website, by clicking the button Board in the menue.

The R-Package Luminescence
Based on the open source
statistic software R , the Luminescence package provides a large number of func-
tions to analyse, calculate, model and visualise all kind of data produced by a large variety of measure-
ment protocols. One of its major advantages is the possibi-lity to generate high quality plots which can be adopted to
almost any kind of user requirements.
The main parts of the package are:
• data import (bin-, csv- and txt-files)
• data analysis (analyse_xxx functions)
• data modelling (linear modulation)
• data calculation (e.g. age models)
• data visualisation (plot functions)
• data sets (a few examples for a quick start)
http

• Get into contact with the team• Access to the bulletin board• Manuals• Glossary (a link to the most important topics in luminescence dating, concerning the world of R.Luminescence)
A gateway to all you have to know about the R.Luminescence project
Upcoming Version 0.3.0
Release: October 2013
There will be a lot of new functions, like
and much more, e.g. analysis-, calculation- and visualisation-
functions.
• mergeRisoeBIN�leData• calc_CosmicDoseRate• analyse_SAR.TL• RLum-class (approach in object-oriented programming)
• writeR2BIN (the inverse function of readBIN2R)
plot_FunctionsTo visualize your data,
the luminescence package pro-vides various plotting-functions.
• plot_RisoeBIN�leData• plot_GrowthCurve• plot_KDE
• plot_Histogram• plot_RadialPlot• plot_RLum
analyse_FunctionsTo evaluate your data
the luminescence package sup-ports your work with a bundle of ana-lyse functions, e.g. for SAR-protocols.
• analyse_IRSAR.RF
• analyse_SAR.CWOSL
• analyse_SAR.OSLdata
• analyse_SAR.TL
• �t_CWCurve
• �t_LMCurve
• others

To start with R.Luminescence, all you have to do is to install the Software R and load the package
Luminescence. We recommend to use a gra-phical interface like RStudio , to make your
work much easier. A detailed installati-on guide can be found on our
website. Have fun!
