Radiation Damage in Ice at Low Temperatures Studied by Proton Channelling
Abstract 100 keV protons with fluxes between 3 × 10 15 and 3 × 10 16 m -2 s -1 and in doses up to 4 × 10 20 m -2 have been used in ice between - 191°C and -87°C to create damage and to analyse it. The Rutherford backscattering minimum yield along the c-axis (about 0.05 in good monocrystals) increase...
