Conclusions 1. Irradiation of specimens with high-energy electrons and γ-quanta to a level of damage of 0.01 cNa causes a reduction in the characteristics of heat resistance, which is an indication of low-temperature radiation embrittlement of the material. 2. The shift in the ductile-to-brittle transition temperature caused by irradiation (ΔTC=14–25°C) correlates well with the results obtained in testing specimens irradiated with low densities of neutron flux to an equivalent fluence. 3. The use of e-γ-beams for investigation of the crack resistance of housing steels may significantly simplify and accelerate obtaining of the necessary information both in the area of radiation material science and in evaluating the life of reactor housings.
