Abstract

In MgO irradiated at high dose rates and high temperatures with 1.8 MeV electrons, a suppression of the Fe3+ optical absorption band at 290 nm is observed. This suppression, a function of both dose rate and temperature, is consistent with a reduction process induced by oxygen displacement damage. Both thermal and radiation enhanced diffusion are involved and lead to the formation of iron containing precipitates. Similar results have been obtained for Ni2+.
