Sex allocation and reproductive costs in a gull with a long breeding season [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Silver Gull is a small gull (265 - 450g), which exhibits sexual dimorphism, with males larger than females. It has a protracted laying period of about 8 months over the winter on Penguin Island in Western Australia.

Implications of T loss in first wall armor and structural materials on T-self-sufficiency in future burning fusion devices

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Future fusion reactors will have to breed enough tritium (T) to sustain continuous operation and to produce excess T to power up other fusion reactors. Therefore, T is a scarce resource that must not be lost inside the fusion power plants systems.

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.

Tritium inventory tracking and management [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
This investigation has identified a number of useful applications of the analysis of the tracking and management of the tritium inventory in the various subsystems and components in a DT fusion reactor system.

Tritium inventories and associated tritium breeding requirement for fusion power reactors

open access: yes, 1984
This paper presents an assessment of tritium-breeding requirement for fusion power reactors. The analysis is based on an evaluation of time-dependent tritium inventories in the reactor system.

Investigation on Tritium Breeding Capability of Solid-Liquid Breeders in a (dt) Fusion Driven Hybrid Reactor

open access: yes, 2006
In design of deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion driven hybrid reactors, maintaining tritium self-sufficiency is very important to decrease operational costs. A (DT) fusion driven hybrid reactor must produce its own tritium to annihilate external investment on

Utilization of Magnesium Chloride (Mg-Cl) cycle for Hydrogen Production of SOMBRERO Fusion Reactor

open access: yesGazi Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi
The aim of this study is to investigate the hydrogen production potential of the Mg-Cl (magnesium chloride) cycle in the SOMBRERO fusion reactor. Three different percentages of UO2 nuclear fuel, namely 2%, 6% and 10%, have been used while keeping the ...

Tritium technologies for pbli based breeding blankets

open access: yes, 2013
A lead-lithium based breeding blanket for DEMO and its corresponding Test Blanket Module (TBM) to be tested in ITER is being developed in EU. The same approach is pursued in other countries involved in the development of fusion nuclear technologies.

A novel discontinuous-Galerkin deterministic neutronics model for fusion applications: workflow for stellarator reactor design studies

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Stellarator reactor design and optimization requires quick and accurate neutronic simulations for obtaining tritium breeding ratio, coil neutron flux, and volumetric neutron heating.
