Abstract

The method of folding the replica of tracks has been shown to be a useful tool to analyze nuclear tracks at submicroscopic level. To date, this methodology was applied only to organic SSNTD. In the present study its applications are extended to an inorganic material. Muscovite mica was irradiated with fission products and replicas of track profiles were evaluated by TEM up to 10 Å resolution. The tracks showed a central, amorphous damaged region and an external bulk zone where the crystalline nature of the mica was presented.
