Abstract


The stored energy in the form of color centers is released during dissolution of ?-irradiated crystalline   potassium bromide in aqueous potassium iodide solution. Various parameters like dose, amount and storage time of irradiated potassium bromide which control the yield of iodine have been studied. Similarly, the effect of concentration of potassium iodide has been investigated. The energy transfer parameter has been determined as the ratio of G/I2 obtained by the addition of irradiated crystalline potassium bromide on the basis of oxidation of iodide.

Key words: - Irradiation, F-centre, Oxidation, Yield.
