The diamagnetic susceptibility of sodium chloride crystal decreases on irradiation with x rays and gamma rays. This is due to the induced paramagnetic centers in the crystal. The difference in diamagnetic susceptibility of the crystal be fore and after irradiation obeys Curie law. On thermal bleaching the diamagnetic susceptibility recovers its original value. The changes in magnetic susceptibilities which occur at different stages of thermal bleaching are found to have correspondence with the integrated intensity of thermoluminescence. It is concluded that the destruction of F centers alone can not account for the intensity of thermoluminescence or changes in magnetic property.
