THE EFFECT OF IRRADIATION ON THE CONTACT FUSION OF CRYSTALS,

Abstract

Conducted tests on the effect of irradiation on the contact of fusion crystals were: (1) irradiation of crystals by x-rays, neutrons and gamma-rays from a Ra-alpha-Be source and electrons increases the contact fusion rate; (2) the greatest change the contact fusion rate occurs at temperatures close to the temperatures of the start of contact fusion; (3) the phenomenon of saturation in the dependence of the contact fusion rate upon the dose was observed; (4) radiation-induced defects have unidentical structures and are removed in different temperature intervals; (5) the activation energy of contact fusion of irradiated crystals immediately after irradiation is less than the activation energy of unirradiated crystals.
