Using "apaugasm" as my search term, the TLG returned these hits:
Philo Judaeus Opif 146.3; Plant 50.4; Spec 4.123.10
Plutarch, Quomodo quis suos in virtute sentiat profectus 83.D.8; De facie
in orbe lunae 934.D.10

Testament of Abraham 16.27
Septuaginta Wisdom 7.26
Pseudo-SphrantzesChronicon 572.9; Chronicon 572.22
For definition, LSJ notes:
apaug-asma , atos, to, radiance, effulgence, of light beaming from a
luminous body, phôtos aïdiou LXX Wi.7.26 ; doxês Ep.Hebr.1.3 , cf.
Ph.1.337, al., Hld.5.27, Dam. ap. Simp. in Ph.775.15.
Hope this helps.
