Abstract
THE effect of ionizing radiation on steady-state conductivity of polymeric dielectrics has been already examined by several authors. I have shown1 that radiation affects not only the steady-state conductivity of polytetrafluoroethylene but also the transient conductivity, deduced from the current flowing through the specimen after the application of d.c. voltage. Recently I have carried out measurements of dielectric permittivity and dissipation factor under irradiation.
