Conclusions

  1. 1.

    In the short-lived absorption spectra of pulse-irradiated MgO single crystals the authors have identified absorption bands belonging to V centers and manganese impurity ions.

  2. 2.

    The radiation-chemical yields of V centers in pulse-irradiated specimens are higher than those in gamma-irradiated ones.

  3. 3.

    The authors have studied the kinetics of destruction of color centers in pulse-irradiated MgO single crystals. They have calculated the rate constants and effective activation energies.
