Popis: The thermoluminescence (TL) image reading technique by the TL spatial distribution readout system is improved 1) to obtain a quantitative glow curve in any part of the TL image, 2) to get fine structure of a TL image and 3) to heat a sample to a higher temperature. This technique is applied to measure the natural and artificial TL glow curves of chondrules in ordinary chondrites, ALH-77294 (H5) and ALH-77216 (L3.8). The fluctuation in the natural LT/HT (region) ratios (LT(region); photons counted in a low temperature region, HT (region); in a high temperature region) of the equilibrated chondrite ALH-77294 is small though that in the unequilibrated chondrite ALH-77216 is large. The equivalent doses of ALH-77294 and ALH-77216 can be estimated from the correlation between natural LT (region) and artificial LT (region) to be about 240krad and 16krad respectively, and are consistent with isotopic ages.
