The light yield, light yield longitudinal non-uniformity, scintillation decay times, energy resolution and timing resolution of a set of spare crystals from the BABAR and Belle experiments are studied as a function of these doses. In addition, a model that describes the plateau observed in the light output loss as a function of dose in terms of increase in concentrations of absorption centres with irradiation is presented. 000000422 6531_ $$aCsI(Tl) 000000422 6531_ $$aradiation hardness of CsI(Tl) 000000422 700__ $$aJ.
