COMPLEMENTARY STUDIES ON REACTIVITY OF RADIATION PRODUCED SPECIES IN CONDENSED MEDIA BY LOW-TEMPERATURE SPECTROSCOPIES AND PULSE TECHNIQUES

The problem of consistency of results provided by low-temperature spec troscopies and pulse techniques on the kinetics of radiation produced intermediates is discussed in terms of a recently developed stochastic model [Plonka A. and Paszkiewicz A. (1992) J. Chem. Phys. 96, 1128] r ationalizing the dependence of reaction patterns in condensed media on their time scales in relation to those of structural relaxations. The results of both approaches are seen to be consistent in terms of this model applied to the transitions from ''solid-like'' to ''liquid-like '' kinetics in numerous systems.
