Experimental investigation of the impact of irradiation damages on the mechanical properties of tungsten

Tungsten (W) is considered the preferred plasma-facing material (PFM) in future magnetic confinement fusion reactors. There it will be exposed to high heat fluxes and intense neutron radiation. Neutron irradiation could have an embrittling effect on is expected to cause irradiation hardening and emb...
