Abstract
A very peculiar effect occurring when an amorphous material is irradiated with swift heavy ion is the giant plastic deformation phenomenon discovered in the eighties by KlaumunzerDD(-8/9¨ It is macroscopically visible atomic rearrangements induced by electronic energy loss. This effect occurs only in truly amorphous solids and can not occur in a crystalline material. This phenomenon gives rise to a wide ranging and lasting research in the field of the interaction of swift heavy...
