Theory of Radiation-Induced Attenuation in Optical FibersA new mathematical model for describing radiation-induced attenuation in optical fibers ispresented. Unlike the existing empirical power law, the new expression is dose- rate dependent andcan be used to predict low-dose-rate induced fiber loss occurring in space from the normally high-dose-rate results obtained in a ground-based laboratory. The new theory is in good agreement withthe experiment.
