✦ Synopsis
Depth-dose distributions in PMMA and polyethylene for a 10 MeV electron beam under typical radiation processing conditions were measured using radiochromic films. Due to the accumulated charge, the measured depth<lose distribution depends strongly on irradiation geometry. Also, the extent to which the observed distribution is affected depends on material, its radiation history and absorbed dose.

The lifetimes of the highly mobile positive ions formed on ionization of cyclohexane and transdecalin solvents are extremely sensitive to radiation dose due to build up of reactive products. In cyclohexane a radiation dose of 2 x 10' J m-3 reduces the halflife to less than 50 ns mainly due to build-
Attenuation curves and photopeak ratios of 159 keV and 28 keV photons emitted in the decay of 123I have been studied using a scintillation camera equipped with an extra ADC for recording the pulse height distribution of the energy signal.

## Abstract Specific‐ion effects are ubiquitous in nature; however, their underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Although Hofmeister‐ion effects on proteins are observed at higher (>0.3__M__) salt concentrations, in dilute (<0.1__M__) salt solutions nonspecific electrostatic screening is considered
