We investigated the combined effects of steady state irradiation and temperature on the transmission properties in the UV-visible spectral domain of a solarization-resistant (SR) multimode fiber from Polymicro. Nature, growth, decay kinetics and temperature dependencies of the Si-related defects involved in the fiber degradation are introduced .
