Measurements of ionizing and nonionizing particles are performed during the rupture tests of steel rods having different diameter. A ZnS(Ag) alpha detector, a Geiger counter and a 3He proportional counter for neutrons are used. From the distributions of the recorded intensity maxima, different particles emissions are suggested to occur in broken and nonbroken samples. A hint for the emission of neutrons at rupture is also obtained. Such neutron emissions are predicted in the framework of the piezonuclear theory.

Abstract
Measurements of ionizing and nonionizing particles are performed during the rupture tests of steel rods having different diameter. A ZnS(Ag) alpha detector, a Geiger counter and a 3He proportional counter for neutrons are used. From the distributions of the recorded intensity maxima, different particles emissions are suggested to occur in broken and nonbroken samples. A hint for the emission of neutrons at rupture is also obtained. Such neutron emissions are predicted in the framework of the piezonuclear theory.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
