Helium-ion-implantation in tungsten: Progress towards a coherent understanding of the damage formed and its effects on properties

Tungsten is a likely material for divertor armour in fusion reactors. We describe recent progress combining multi-technique experiments with atomistic modelling to understand how injected helium interacts with displacement damage and modifies the physical properties of tungsten. Using X-ray micro-di...
