Abstract
Recent experimental evidence seems to indicate that interstitials in alkali halides are formed by ionizing radiation. The validity of the so-called Varley mechanism depends on several factors such as the lifetime of the positive halogen ion, lattice geometry, etc. These are evaluated and found favorable.Keywords
