Abstract
Paper discoloration and its tensile strength degradation caused by 2.1 MeV external proton beam bombardment under low beam current density ( < 10 nA/cm 2) were measured as a function of the number of incident protons. The target temperature reached during bombardment was measured using an infrared thermometer. Under low beam current density, paper heating is negligible and the paper deterioration depends only on the total beam fluence. Some of the experimental results are presented and discussed for several types of paper, including one used for traditional Chinese paintings.
