Diffusion kinetics in radiation chemistry. I. Generalized formulation and criticism of diffusion model

Abstract

A generalized formulation of the diffusion-kinetic model of track effects in radiation chemistry is presented and criticized. It permits consideration of complex mechanisms, arbitrary initial distributions and radical correlation effects. Methods for the numerical integration of the associated differential equations on high-speed electronic digital computers are given and their accuracy is examined. Several applications are suggested.
