Abstract: | Solid state radiation chemistry is briefly reviewed with attention to some important features that distinguish it from liquid state radiation chemistry: (i) reactions of primary products of radiolysis in the solid state can proceed via a path different than that of the same material in liquid phase (example: very slow reaction of dry electron with N2O); (ii) “molecular products” of radiolysis appear in any aqueous system, also in the solid state due to the always identical physical mechanism of heterogenous energy deposition; (iii) there are basic differences in transportation of products of radiolysis, transient and stable, in solid matrices (example: CH3C√HCO−2 decay in liquid and solid state); (iv) specific behaviour of systems of high macro- but low micro-viscosity (example: gels); (v), independence of radiolysis products formation in single and multi-ionization spurs, especially at higher LET values (example: crystalline alanine); (vi) quantitative determination of the yield of multi-ionization spurs in alanine during low LET irradiation shows similar participation of single- and multi-ionization spurs as in water. |
