Build-up of tritium in a liquid-lithium breeding blanket for an inertial-confinement-fusion chamber [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
The build-up of tritium in a liquid lithium breeding blanket for an ICF chamber has been examined. The break-even time is found to decrease both the increasing tritium breeding ratio and increasing values of ..cap alpha.., the fraction of unburned ...

A Systematic Framework for Risk Assessment of Fusion Blanket: Addressing Manufacturing Defects, Accident Scenarios, and Radioactive Release

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The breeder blanket, as a critical component in fusion reactors, undertakes three essential functions: tritium breeding, neutron shielding, and thermal energy conversion. Serving as the primary plasma‐facing component, it operates under extreme conditions—including sustained high temperatures, intense neutron irradiation fluxes, significant ...

Review of Analytical Lithium Detection and Quantification Methods Along the Lithium Value Chain

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 4, Issue 6, December 2025.
This article reviews a selection of suitable state‐of‐the‐art analytical methods for different scales of spatial resolution and detection of lithium for a variety of lithium‐bearing materials along the lithium value chain. The various materials differ greatly in terms of their lithium content by more than 5 orders of magnitude and also vary in their ...

Impact of Solid Breeder Materials on Tritium Breeding in a Hybrid Reactor

open access: yes, 2006
Tritium breeding ratio (TBR) is one of the important parameters in design of a Deuterium Tritium (DT) driven hybrid reactor. Therefore, selection of tritium breeder materials to be used in the blanket is very crucial.

Understanding the influence of Malta litho‐structural features on the dynamics of nitrate transport in the vadose zone

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract Coastal aquifers in the Mediterranean are increasingly stressed by climate change, intensive agriculture, and rising water demand. In Malta island, where groundwater is a key resource, nitrate contamination remains a persistent issue despite regulatory efforts and the designation of the islands as a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone.

Tritium breeding experiments in a fusion blanket assembly using a low-intensity neutron generator.

open access: yes, 1987
Experiments have been carried out to determine the accuracy with which tritium production rates (TPRs) can be measured in a fusion blanket assembly of non-spherical geometry by a non-central low intensity D-T neutron source.

Intestinal inflammation induces glymphatic remodeling, priming early neurodegenerative signals in male mice

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Inflammatory bowel disease triggers extraintestinal manifestations, including in the central nervous system (CNS). However, the direct impact of peripheral inflammation on the CNS is largely unknown. METHODS Using a mouse model of colitis with pain and anxiety‐like behavior, we investigated the intricate pathogenic link between ...
