This work presents the results following the first irradiation of ITER materials samples in a tokamak D–T plasma environment operating at significant fusion power. The materials exposed to this nuclear environment at the Joint European Torus include representative ITER samples from various components such as poloidal field (PF) coil jacket…
ITER is of key importance in the European fusion roadmap as it aims to prove the scientific and technological feasibility of fusion as a future energy source. The EUROfusion consortium of labs is contributing to the preparation of ITER scientific exploitation and operation and aspires to exploit ITER outcomes in view of DEMO. The paper provides …
Spectrum unfolding is a key tool used together with diagnostics in the determination of nuclear fields that are associated with a range of nuclear technologies spanning fusion, fission, nuclear medicine and accelerator domains. The underlying process requires a mathematical method for solving the Fredholm integral equation of the first kind. This p…
