Popis: >Results are reported from a study of the G value as a function of radiation dose of gases produced when cellulose was exposed in vacuum at ambient temperature to a radiation dose of 1.3 plus or minus 0.02 M rad/min by means of a 4-Mev linear accelerator. Yield curves for CO, CO/sub 2/, and H showed that the gas was almost entirely H. Results indicate that the G value of H was dependent on total dose and that the reaction products depended critically on the efficiency of the outgassing of the cellulose. (C.H.)
