Abstract
Following the development of intrinsically radiation-hard scintillators, we exposed various scintillators tiles to gammas from a 137Cs source at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics up to 1.4 and 14 Mrad. The results are within expectations and exhibit sufficiently high performance for implementations in the future/upgrade hadron/lepton collider detectors. Here we report on the nature of the irradiation tests and present the results of the laboratory measurements performed continuously for more than 60 days following the irradiation under various recovery conditions.
