Abstract
Several primary radiation products produced by ionizing radiation in the nucleoside thymidine have been stabilized at 4.2°K; two have been identified by ESR−ENDOR spectroscopy. One of these products is formed by reduction of the thymine ring. The other product results from the loss of a hydrogen atom from the 5′−hydroxy group.Keywords
