Description

The effect of crystallographic structure on the activation energy of fission track annealing apatites is reported. The activation energy is found to vary with the crystallographic orientation, being maximum (0.71 eV) for 1010 plane and minimum(0.57 eV) for 0001 plane of the crystal. The plane parallel 100-axis(1010) is found to be the most resistant to track annealing. (author). 9 refs
