Abstract
Using both low microwave power and weak magnetic field modulation, we have shown that the asymmetric signal arising in X-irradiated tooth enamel as well as in A-type carbonated apatite exposed to X-rays or to excited oxygen has an orthorhombic character and must be attributed to CO 2 − . Effectively, the mean values found for the three g-tensor components are comparable to those quoted for this defect in single-crystal specimens of calcite and sodium formate.Keywords
