the radiolysis can only occurs in insulators or wide band-gap semiconductors.
The excitation must be localised on one atomic (or molecular) site
Non-radiative transitions, allowing an efficient kinetic energy transfer to an atom, must prevail over radiative transitions

1) Radiolysis is not universal, not easily predictable
2) Is in essence temperature dependent
3) Spans over a wide time scale
4) Occurs generally on one sub-lattice (anions)
5) Radiolysis occurs occasionally when it occurs, it is with a good energetic efficiency.
Elastic damage occurs every time but with a relatively poor energetic efficiency.
