✦ Synopsis

Contrary to a recent report, no evidence has been obtained for the ESR spectra of HaO" and D30-radicals in UV-irradiated glasses. It is suggested that the previously observed spectrum which was assigned to 1430. is that of the CH5 radical, presumably formed by" photo-oxidation of impurities.
