Abstract

Ion tracks were generated in crystalline San Carlos olivine (Mg,Fe) 2SiO 4 and Durango apatite Ca 10(PO 4) 6F 2 using different heavy ions ( 58Ni, 101Ru, 129Xe, 197Au, and 238U) with energies ranging between 185 MeV and 2.6 GeV. The tracks and their annealing behavior were studied by means of synchrotron based small angle X-ray scattering in combination with in situ annealing. Track radii vary as a function of electronic energy loss but are very similar in both minerals. Furthermore, the annealing behavior of the track radii has been investigated and preliminary results reveal a lower recovery rate of the damaged area in olivine compared with apatite.
