Abstract
centers were produced in KCl and KBr by x-irradiation at temperatures near liquid helium. The symmetry of these centers was determined by observing the dichroism produced in the absorption band after bleaching with polarized -band light. It was found that the optical dipole moment of the center is parallel to . The polarized bleaching light tends to reorient the centers as well as to bleach them. The oscillator strength of the center was found to be greater than about 0.3 that of the center in KCl and greater than about 0.5 that of the center in KBr.
