Dynamic Radiation Effects Induced by Short-Pulsed GeV U-Ion Beams in Graphite and h-BN Targets

Figure 11

h-BN sample after irradiation with 1.14 GeV U-ions to an accumulated fluence of 5 × 10¹³ ions/cm². The sample fractured around the beam spot area and is visibly bent. The beam darkened the sample. The black horizontal line originates from a carbon paint applied for thermal camera monitoring during irradiation.
