I'm looking for information pertaining to the effects of radiation (gamma and neutron) on fiber optic cables/strands.  In particular, I am interested in optical signal degradation in fiber optics as a function of exposure.  The exposure levels of greatest interest are those present in Nuclear Reactors.  I will appreciate any and all information forwarded to me.  Since I do not routinely use VNEWS, please forward any comments to the following address:
