Evaluation of the Relative Neutronic Risk of Alternative Fusion Fuels
The radiological risk profiles of a variety of fusion fuels were assessed, to aid understanding of the influence of fuel choice on the safety and cost of future commercial fusion power plants. Shielding thickness and activation dose rates were modeled for five fusion fuels consisting of Deuterium-Tr...
