Abstract: A phenomenon of spontaneous release of energy accumulated in some hydrogenous materials under fast neutron irradiation at low temperature was studied at a cryogenic irradiation facility of the IBR-2 reactor in Dubna for the purpose of cold neutron moderator development. Spontaneous release of energy occurred in water ice after 5–11 h of fast neutron irradiation at temperature
