Abstract
It has been reported that the dissolution of some irradiated solids in certain liquids results in the emission of light. Accordingly, different materials were studied including γ-irradiated alkali halides and saccharides with water or some fluorescent systems as solvents. Doses ranging between 1 and 107 rads were measured, using NaCl, with an accuracy of ± 5% and high reproducibility. Some thermoluminescence experiments were made to optimize the conditions affecting the retention of the stored energy. A few spectroscopic experiments were also done to study the emission spectra of the light produced in the process of dissolution.Keywords
