Fig. 5: Actual and predicted age for different types of glasses.

From: Ultra-slow aging dynamics of glass and its application to geological dating

Fig. 5

The age of a Ce-based MG, b Baltic amber, and c Chang’E-5 lunar glass are estimated from the changes in their physical properties, according to the KWW decaying function \(\phi (t,{T})=\exp \left[-{\left(t/{\tau }_{{{{\rm{eff}}}}}\right)}^{{\beta }_{{{{\rm{eff}}}}}}\right]\) (τeff values are in Fig. 3d). The error bars in (a-c) represent the standard deviation. d shows the comparison between the actual age and predicted age. The black solid squares, red solid circles, and violet solid triangles represent the predicted ages of Ce-based MG, Baltic amber, and Chang’E-5 lunar glass, and Gorilla glass12 respectively, and the error bars in (d) indicate the confidence interval.
