Abstract
The γ- and α-radiolysis of cyclohexane, cycloheptane and cyclooctane was investigated in the absence and presence of iodine scavenger. Comparison of the distributions of products formed revealed considerable differences between γ- and α-radiolysis, and the decomposition of strainless cyclohexane and strained cycloheptane and cyclooctane.
