Abstract
Some experimental data on the radiation-stimulated diffusion in metals and alkali halides are presented. The diffusion mechanisms in the crystal solids under irradiation and the effect of temperature irradiation on the diffusion are discussed. It is noted that the super-equilibrium point defects play a major role in the radiation-stimulated diffusion.
