An Investigation of the Irradiation Swelling Mechanisms in Refractory Metals at High Temperatures.

Abstract

This report presents the results of progress made during the first year of a three year program on the investigation of swelling mechanisms in refractory metals irradiated at elevated temperatures, i.e. 0.3 T sub m - 0.6 T sub m (where T sub m = melting point in K). The objective of this work is to achieve an understanding of the elevated temperature swelling in these body centered cubic (bcc) metals by a close coupling of theoretical development and experimental verification. Originator supplied keywords include: Swelling, Radiation effects, Ion bombardment, Refractory metals, Theory of swelling, Ion-simulation irradiation.
