Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the isothermal bleaching process of γ-irradiated borosilicate glass at elevated temperatures using real-time optical microspectroscopy for the first time.
  • The research focuses on two specific doses of γ-irradiation (0.83 and 1.99 MGy) of International Simple Glass, a nuclear waste simulant produced by Mo-SCI Corporation.
  • It introduces a new method for assessing activation energy during this bleaching process, finding that the Urbach energy decay rates yield similar activation energies of approximately 0.24-0.26 eV for both irradiation doses.
