RLumModel - v0.2.8

CRAN release

by Sebastian Kreutzer and Johannes Friedrich (April 8, 2021)

A few minutes ago, we released a new version of RLumModel; or famous luminescence modelling package. Do I need to upgrade? Not really, except you have encountered problems with the package and an older R version (<3.6.0). The update was mainly for keeping the code basis young and adding a tiny new feature, returning the modelling parameters in the @info slot. This way, you can verify the applied settings without reading the original articles (still always recommended) or searching in the source code: Example:

library(RLumModel)

output <- model.output <- model_LuminescenceSignals(
  sequence = list(
    IRR = c(20, 10, 1),
    TL = c(20, 400, 5)
  ),
  plot = FALSE, 
  verbose = FALSE,
  model = "Bailey2001"
)
