Impact of fusion neutrons on helium production in beryllium and tungsten, and tritium breeding in ITER and DEMO [PDF]

, 2014
The project studies blanket designs of ITER and DEMO for neutron shielding, helium production and tritium breeding. On the one hand, a comparison has been made between beryllium and tungsten as first wall materials.

Tritium Breeding in a Fusion--Fission Hybrid Breeder Reactor [PDF]

, 1978
In order to construct a D-T fusion-fission hybrid breeder reactor there must be some guarantee that tritium will be available to fuel the fusion reaction. This can be achieved by breeding tritium in the blanket of the reactor.

Comparison of DeePMD, MTP, GAP, ACE and MACE Machine‐Learned Potentials for Radiation‐Damage Simulations: A User Perspective

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
The authors evaluated six machine‐learned interatomic potentials for simulating threshold displacement energies and tritium diffusion in LiAlO2 essential for tritium production. Trained on the same density functional theory data and benchmarked against traditional models for accuracy, stability, displacement energies, and cost, Moment Tensor Potential ...
