Infrared spectra of the HDO absorption band (top) and H2O absorption bands (bottom) of a 6.18 × 1018 H2O cm−2 (2.17 μm) crystalline sample during irradiation with 10 keV electrons at 50 K, compared to an amorphous H2O-ice sample of similar thickness grown at 50 K. The curves (from top to bottom in both panels, displaced vertically for clarity) correspond to fluences of 0, 0.95, 2.61, 6.95, 28.0, 101, 341, 510, and 1590 × 1014 electrons cm−2. The bottom panel has been adapted from M. J. Loeffler et al. (2020).
