<x-charset Windows-1252>Yes, it is the same.  The effects of radiation are cumulative, minor damage
over time builds up, so it can be nearly the same as higher rates of
exposure over shorter periods of time.  There are, of course, limits.  To
much heat will incinerate the paper, something that wouldn't happen even if
it was exposed to very high heat below its ignition point for a long period
of time.  But what counts here is mimicking the type of long-term damage
with high levels of short-term exposure.
The problem with respect to the current thread concerning ozone is that only
so much ozone exists in any environment.  As another poster remarked, that
ozone will react with the dyes quickly and is then depleted.  Unless more
ozone is introduced, the damage due to ozone will have ended.  Wilhelm needs
to devise a method to continuously introduce ozone and other oxidizing
pollutants (to replace those consumed by reactions with the dyes and papers)
in order to simulate long-term exposure to these contaminants.
