LOW-TEMPERATURE KINETIC BEHAVIOR OF HYDROGEN ATOMS IN GAMMA-IRRADIATED ICE

Abstract

The rate of disappearance of trapped hydrogen atoms in gamma-irradiated ice as been studied at temperatures up to 60 K. H atoms produced by gamma-irradiation of ice at 4.2 K appear to be trapped in a variety of different sites, withACTIVATION ENERGIES FOR DE-TRAPPING RANGING FROM LESS THAN 1.0 TO MORE THAN 2.0 KCAL/MOLE. The results are discussed in terms of various models; the preferred model involves an initially nonisotropic spatial distribution. (Author)
