2001) Radiation-induced effects in soda-lime silicate glasses of different origin, Radiation Effects and Defects in Solids, 156:1-4, 353-358,Correlated measurements of optical absorption and thermoluminescence of g-irradiated sodalime silicate (SLS) glasses were performed to detect and characterize the induced radiation damage in these materials. Three kinds of hole-type defect centers have been distinguished in glasses which differ with respect to the content of the glass-network modifiers and some multivalent transient metal cations. The main features of the related absorption bands are compared and discussed in terms of the purity and pre-irradiation histoty of samples.
