A major challenge for heat transfer in nuclear materials is to ensure thermal mobility after high amounts of neutron irradiation. Tungsten is widely selected as a heat transfer material in fusion reactors. In metals, thermal conductivity is dominated by electrons’ ability to transfer energy. Neutron irradiation generates point defects, c…
The mechanism of four nonlinearly interacting drift or Rossby waves is used as the basic process underlying the turbulent evolution of both the Charney-Hasegawa-Mima-equation CHME and its generalized modification GCHME. Hasegawa and Kodama’s concept of equivalent action or quanta is applied to the four-wave system and shown to control the distrib…
