Application of the blob model to aqueous solutions

In spite of some important distinctions in the structure of the terminal positron blob and spurs, ionization columns and blobs of 5-electrons, where reactions of radiolytic hydrogen (H2) formation take place, these processes have much in common and it is natural to describe them in the framework 

During the last 50 years a great deal of experimental data has been accumulated on the yields of Ps, H2 and e-q in various aqueous solutions. Here, we apply the blob model to calculate these yields in solutions of NOJ, H202, HCIO4, Cl-, Br-, I- and F-. They were selected to embrace the greatest possible variety of solute properties with respect to intratrack reactive species. 

Formation probabilities of H2, e-q and Ps are determined as integrals from the corresponding terms in Eq. (22)  

In the calculations we used an approximate relationship, Ph2o 3Ph2I between the formation probability of excited water molecules and molecular hydrogen [4, 48].
