[ $CaSO_4$ ] thermoluminescent phosphors was made by sintring the $CaSO_4$ after doping the transition elements Tm, Pd, Dy, V, Mo, Zr. The maximum Peaks are found in the measured $CaSO_4$(Tm, Pd, Dy, V, Mo, Zr) TL glow curve at $130^{\circ}C,\;110^{\circ}C,\;140^{\circ}C,\;100^{\circ}C$, and $120^{\circ}C$ when the heating rate is $5^{\circ}C/sec$. The activation energy of the main peak has been estimated by the peak shape method. The estimated activation energies are 1.02eV, 1.32eV, 1.12eV, 0.80eV, and 1.17eV, respectively. The thermoluminescence process in $CaSO_4$(Tm, Pd, Dy, V, Mo, Zr)are found to the 2nd order when the main peak of the glow curve is analyzed by peak shape method. The dose responses of $CaSO_4$(Tm, Pd, Dy, V, Mo, Zr) phosphors are linear within $4{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}1Gy$ of X-rays.
