Abstract

Measurements of ionizing and nonionizing particles are performed during the rupture tests of steel rods having different diameter. A ZnS(Ag) alpha detector, a Geiger counter and a 3He proportional counter for neutrons are used. From the distributions of the recorded intensity maxima, different particles emissions are suggested to occur in broken and nonbroken samples. A hint for the emission of neutrons at rupture is also obtained. Such neutron emissions are predicted in the framework of the piezonuclear theory.
