SCALING LAWS FOR IONIZATION EFFECTS IN INSULATORS,

Abstract

A new formulation is presented for radiation-induced conductivity in insulators which takes cognizance of the fact that the ionization is formed along particle tracks rather than being uniformly distributed throughout the material. This leads to a linear dependence of conductivity on dose rate with, however, a possibility of an additional dependence on dose for high doses. Data are presented demonstrating this linear dependence. (Author)
