Illumination of a sodium chloride crystal at liquid nitrogen temperature after x-ray irradiation at a higher temperature or higher temperature annealing has two effects upon its thermoluminescence: Glow peaks stable at the temperature of x-ray irradiation or annealing are diminished in intensity. Missing glow peaks, unstable at the temperature of x-ray irradiation or annealing, reappear in the glow curve. Both effects are greatest for illumination in the F band. The results are not consistent with existing models of the thermoluminescence process.
