Abstract
Self-irradiation effects due to α-radiation in plutonium/IV/ hydroxo phenyl acetate, Pu/OH/3/C6H5CH2COO/ and hydroxo α-naphthyl acetate, Pu/OH/3/C10H7CH2COO/ have been studied by EPR technique. OH and C6H5CH2COO. species are identified in the phenyl acetate while the C10H7CH2COO. species is detected in α-naphthyl acetate. The values of the efficiency parameter, η, determined for OH, C6H5CH2COO. and C10H7CH2COO. species are 0.8, 1.31 and 2.18, respectively. The results are interpreted on the basis of the thermal spikes associated with the alpha particle interaction with the lattice.
