摘要
Decay of the radiation-induced stable free radicals in L-alanine single crystals and powders at the temperatures from 379 to 476 K was examined by electron paramagnetic resonance. For single crystals, the calculated activation energy of the radical decay is 104.3 +/- 1.7 kJ/mol (i.e. 12 538 +/- 202 K) and the frequency factor lnv(o) is 24.1 +/- 0.4 min(-1). The lifetime of the radical in single crystals at 296 K is 162 years. The results confirm the long-term stability of the radicals, but the decay was found to be faster in large crystals than in powders. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
