Abstract
ABSTRACTS Single crystals of lithium fluoride were cleaved along the plane and fission fragments from a U3O8 film 1 mm distant were allowed to enter a portion of the crystal surface at room temperature. The crystals were then etched in an acid bath and photographed in a projection microscope. The damage produced in the crystals by recoiling fission fragments is demonstrated.
