All fibres were exposed to electron pulses of 500 rd, 3 krd, 10 krd and 100 krd as well as to the continous gamma radiation of a Co-60 source up to 10 krd and 100 krd. At 10 krd additonal measurements with fibre temperatures of +100 degrees C and -50 degrees C were made at both irridiation facilities. After some brief comments on experimental details we present a small fraction of the results and refer to some interesting details we found til now, e.g. the enormous photobleaching in a SM fibre with pure SiO2 core or the reverse temperature dependence of the induced loss after pulsed irradiation of a P containing fibre at very short and longer times after irradiation. Furthermore, induced losses after pulsed and continuous irra diation are compared, as well as their dependence upon wavelength and temperature.encontinuous irradiationgepulste BestrahlungKernstrahlungkontinuierliche BestrahlungLichtwellenleiternuclear radiationoptical fibrespulsed irradiationradiation induced lossstrahlungsinduzierte Dämpfung620Induced loss after pulsed and continuous irradiation of single mode and graded index fibresconference paper
