Abstract :
The processes of the radiation damage and recovery of PbWO4 crystals were studied in the present paper. The crystals had different faults and were subjected to the effect of γ-irradiation with the dose power of 30 rad/min and 500 rad/min. At low radiation doses, measurements were made directly in the irradiation process and just after it
