Abstract
The function describing the temperature dependence of radiation swelling in the context of the mechanism of diffusion-deformation instability of quasi-equilibrium excess vacancies in a metal under irradiation is suggested. The functions calculated for a number of metals are compared with the available experimental data. It is concluded that the mechanism of diffusion-deformation instability adequately describes the processes of forming radiation pores.
