Unique Research Facility “Gammatok-100”

Аннотация

The main results of successful 30-year’s working on the Gammatok-100 radiation research facility at the Institute of Problems of Chemical Physics to study various radiation-induced chemical transformations are summarized. The advantages of the unique radiation facility, the design features of which allowed its continuous operation during the entire time of its existence, are noted. Reloading gamma-radiation sources in the facility has made it possible to increase the efficiency of its use by increasing the radiation dose rate (more than 50 times) and intensifying scientific research. The prospects for the development of new basic and applied areas of radiation chemistry are presented.
