Context. Carbonaceous chondrites have undergone alteration in their parent bodies and display oxidized secondary phases, including sulfates CI CM chondrites. The cause of the formation these is yet to be determined. Aims. This study investigates potential endogenous radiolysis water (i.e., caused by radionuclides present rock) on carbonaceous Radiolysis may contributed enhanced degree oxidation...

volatile compounds generated from two types of polymeric laminated films, irradiated by gamma radiation at 8, 10 and 15 kgy, were investigated. activated carbon was used as a dry food simulant to trace the migrating compounds by gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (gc/ms). the resulting data showed that the polyethylene terephthalate (pet)/polyethylene terephthalate (pet)/linear low density po...

Nanoporous gold was used as a high specific surface material to describe the water radiolysis in the vicinity of metal surfaces. Porous gold monoliths were prepared by electrolytic dissolution of silver in Au-Ag alloys and characterized by small angle neutron scattering. The hydroxyl radical production under gamma irradiation was measured by benzoate scavenging in water confined in 50 nm porous...

By assuming that HO2 ● radical production in water and H2 production in benzene are 2 hit processes, and applying the concepts of track physics, we are able to obtain a parametric fit to the yields of these reactions by heavy ion radiolysis from knowledge of the radial dose distribution about a heavy ion’s path. We make no use of the concept of a track core, for no clearly definable track core ...

The dependence of Gi(-M) values of histidine on the concentration of irradiated 10(-4) - 10(-1)M solutions, pH and the presence of O2, N2O and sec-butyl alcohol was investigated. In oxygen-free medium the maximum radiation sensitivity of histidine was found at pH 5--8; in oxygenated solutions it was shifted to the 6--1 pH range. The formation of radiation products was also studied. The course o...

In the study, heterogeneous radiolysis of water in adsorption and liquid form was studied (RaO)x(SiO2)y+H2O system. The effect radioactivity radium cations process temperature on release molecular hydrogen determined (T=300‒673K). mechanism with participation system has been proposed.

The formation of Co(3)O(4) nano-scale colloid particles by gamma irradiation of CoSO(4) solutions was investigated. Solutions of 0.2-0.3 mM CoSO(4) at pH 6.0 and 10.6 (air-saturated and Ar-purged) were irradiated at an absorbed dose rate of 5.5 kGy h(-1). The resulting concentrations of H(2), H(2)O(2), Co(II) and Co(III) species in solution and the chemical composition and sizes of particles th...
