The positron lifetime spectra in iron defected with a beam of Bi+51 and Kr+27 ions of energies 670 MeV and 240 MeV, respectively, were investigated. These spectra were analysed by an appropriate separation in 1, 2 or 3 components. It has been found that the experimental data best fit to the assumed model if only two components are taken into account. For comparison, we investigated both irradiated and non-irradiated surfaces of the sample. We have taken into account the fact that the range of penetration of iron by Bi and Kr ions is small. The dependence of the positron lifetime spectra on the absorbed dose and kind of the bombarding ions is presented.
