title: Irradiated lithium formate and amino acids.
abstract: Radiation-induced free radicals in solids show a microwave saturation effect when studied by electron spin resonance. A comparison is made between such effects in lithium formate and amino acids. The relative effectiveness of neutrons against high-energy photons is also considered.
