Abstract
The spectral character of the optical absorption produced by ionizing radiation in several fibers and fiber materials has been measured. The nature of the damage has been identified in some of the samples and preliminary work has been successful in synthesizing radiation‐protected soda lime silicate glasses for fiber applications.Keywords
