Computer Modeling of Radiationally and Thermally Stimulated Processes in a Crystal

Abstract

The processes of radiation defects formation and evolution have been simulated in cubic dielectric crystals by the computational method of cellular automata. If suppose that the defects concentration as a parameter, which characterizes a system state, reaches some critical value at the irradiation process, in this case there would be collective effects in the system that lead to self-organization phenomena and demonstrate a formation of one-type defect clusters. The fractal theory is used to detect synergistic effects and described the spatial and temporal transformation of defect structure in a crystal.
