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 effect of impurity atoms on the efficiency of formation and accumulation of radiation defects in the metals and alkali halide crystals is considered. Interaction of impurities with radiation defects can both promote stabilization of the structural disorder, and suppress the radiation-defect formation. Especially the complex processes take place in the irradiated alkali halide crystals, where a wide variety of the radiation-induced defects is possible.
