Abstract
Stable radiation-induced changes of electrical conductivity in strong electric fields in soda-lime-silicate glasses is explained using the concept that the accumulation of volume charge creates a high-voltage polarization in the presence of electrons excited by gamma irradiation. It is assumed that the processes of recombination of electrons and sodium cations, and their dissociations, are controlled by the strong electric field.
