Whilst there is a clear scientific and technological need for the technical capabilities of transmission electron microscopes with in-situ ion irradiation, it also requires a collaborative community of international researchers to support such facilities in successfully meeting this demand. Instruments of this type serve to provide fundamental u…
Titanium and chromium beryllides, TiBe12 and CrBe12, are materials of potential future importance as neutron multipliers for tritium breeding in nuclear fusion reactors. Beryllium experiences extremely high transmutation according to a n →2n transmutation reaction in which both tritium and helium are produced, which norma…
