Abstract
Ionising radiation leaves radicals and pairs of radicals in irradiated solids. The distance between observed radicals in a pair is between 0 .3 and 1.0 nm. Pairs are identifiable by their electron spin resonance spectra and a method is described to calculate the distance between s pins. Observations of pairs in dense polyethylene and thymine (at 77K) are described as a function of dose, for irradiations with gamma rays and with 32 MeV protons.
