Abstract
Optical radiations were observed from optical fibers under irradiation in a fission reactor, JMTR. A major part of the observed optical radi ations is thought to be composed of broad optical radiation in the who le wavelength range studied in the present experiment. This broad opti cal radiation will be generated by the process of so-called Cherenkov radiation. Also, a sharp optical radiation peak was found at 1270 nm o n -a F-doped fiber. This peak is thought to relate with doped fluorine ions and ionizing gamma-ray irradiation.
