Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to describe some effects of beta radiation on the conductivity σ of good insulators (i.e. σ<; 10-17mho/cm) as a function of radiation rate, total irradiation time and temperature. The historical background will first be given; then, some recent measurements will be described and related to theory; and, finally, some practical applications will be discussed.
