Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

The models and thermal stability of the impurity radiation defects in the metals and alkali halides are reviewed. Due to the ionic lattice structure and presence of two sublattices in alkali halides, the formation of much larger number of types of impurity radiation defects than in metals is possible. The most important in the radiation processes are the complexes of self-interstitial-impurity and vacancy-impurity.
