We review the current stage of research of track formation processes and mechanisms in
materials irradiated by swift ions. We show that the nature and morphology of tracks depend …

Minerals are solid state nuclear track detectors—nuclear recoils in a mineral leave latent
damage to the crystal structure. Depending on the mineral and its temperature, the damage …

Since a few breakthroughs in the fundamental understanding of the effects of swift heavy
ions (SHIs) decelerating in the electronic stopping regime in the matter have been achieved …

LiF and NaCl crystals were irradiated at 8 K and 300 K with various light and heavy ions (C,
Ti, Ni, Kr, Sm, Au, Pb, and U) of kinetic energy between about 50 and 2600 MeV, providing …

The event-by-event Monte Carlo code, TREKIS, was recently developed to describe
excitation of the electron subsystems of solids in the nanometric vicinity of a trajectory of a …

In this brief review we discuss the transient processes in solids under irradiation with
femtosecond X-ray free-electron-laser (FEL) pulses and swift-heavy ions (SHI). Both kinds of …

Investigation of radiation defects induced by the irradiation of LiF crystals with 5-or 10-MeV
Au ions (fluences of 10 11–2× 10 14 ions∕ cm 2; flux varies by 2 orders of magnitude) at …

A Monte Carlo approach was applied for simulations of the early stage (first tens of
femtosecond) of kinetics of the electronic subsystem of silica (SiO 2) in tracks of swift heavy …

Приведён анализ современного состояния исследований процессов и механизмов
трекообразования при облучении материалов быстрыми ионами. Показано, что …

In this research we verify the applicability of the temperature and heat diffusion conceptions
for the description of subpicosecond lattice excitations in nanometric tracks of swift heavy …
