Track effects in water radiolysis with high energy heavy ions

  • 1. Radiation Lab., Univ. of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556

Description

While the differential yield for HO/sub 2/M production in the radiolysis of water with 100-200 MeV carbon ions (-- 0.05 molecules/100 eV) is more than twice the yield observed for fast electrons, there is little dependence of yield on particle energy. This observation suggests that the density of initial events in the spurs produced by highly charged ions is somewhat greater than in electron radiolysis. Detailed examination of the effect of particle charge on track structure is in order
