Neutronics experiment of tritium breeding in supercritical CO2 cooled lithium-lead blanket mock-up by D–T neutron irradiation

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The tritium breeding capacity of fusion blankets is a critical factor in achieving tritium self-sufficiency in fusion reactors. Current designs for tritium production in blankets are based on neutronics simulations, whose accuracy requires experimental ...

Variation of neutron yield from a titanium-tritide target during deuterium beam bombardment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
In the laboratory simulation of D-T fusion breeder blankets 14 MeV neutrons are produced by the bombardment of a titanium-tritide target with deuterium ions using accelerating voltages up to 500 keV and beam currents ranging from micro to milliamperes.

Scientific realism about Friston blankets without literalism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Bruineberg and colleagues' critique of Friston blankets relies on what we call the literalist fallacy: the assumption that in order for Friston blankets to represent real boundaries, biological systems must literally possess or instantiate Markov ...

Searching for exotic scalars at fusion reactors

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
Part of the energy created in deuterium-tritium fusion reactors is carried away from plasma by a high-intensity neutron flux, which is then absorbed by the reactor’s inner walls.

Tritium Extraction from Liquid Blankets of Fusion Reactors via Membrane Gas–Liquid Contactors

open access: yesJournal of Nuclear Engineering
The exploitation of fusion energy in tokamak reactors relies on efficient and reliable tritium management. The tritium needed to sustain the deuterium–tritium fusion reaction is produced in the Li-based blanket surrounding the plasma chamber, and ...

Three-dimensional model of DEMO-FNS facility considering neutronics and radiation shield problems

open access: yesHeliyon, 2019
Recent neutronics studies of blankets for tokamak-based demonstration fusion neutron source (DEMO-FNS) showed a crucial influence of coolant composition on the transmutation rate of transuranic elements and tritium breeding in the system.
