Bl. Berman et al., CHANNELING RADIATION FROM LIH AND LID, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section B, Beam interactions with materials and atoms, 119(1-2), 1996, pp. 71-78
We have obtained channeling-radiation spectra for both electrons and p
ositrons incident along the major planes of LIH and LID crystals. Anal
ysis of the data yields two significant results: (1) the thermal-vibra
tion amplitude of LiD is smaller than that of LiH, as one would expect
for this isotopic effect, but in contradiction with tabulated values;
and (2) a tunneling transition was observed for 54-MeV electron chann
eling along the (111) planes of both LiH and LiD.
