Proposed fusion and advanced (Generation IV) fission energy systems require high-
performance materials capable of satisfactory operation up to neutron damage levels …

As the most noticeable plasma-oriented material (PFM), metal tungsten is widely used in
nuclear fusion reactors. However, its oxidation resistance is poor at high temperatures …

Plasma-facing materials and components in a fusion reactor are the interface between the
plasma and the material part. The operational conditions in this environment are probably …

The current magnetic confinement nuclear fusion power reactor concepts going beyond
ITER are based on assumptions about the availability of materials with extreme mechanical …

In 1959 the Journal of Nuclear Materials (JNM) was founded and is now celebrating its
Diamond Anniversary year. The present paper is part of a series in which single JNM …

Interactions between the plasma and the vessel walls constitute a major engineering
problem for next step fusion devices, such as ITER, determining the choice of the plasma …

In fusion reactors, surfaces of plasma facing components (PFCs) are exposed to high heat
and particle flux. Tungsten and Copper alloys are primary candidates for plasma facing …

Transmission electron microscopy of high temperature annealing of pure tungsten irradiated
by self-ions was conducted to elucidate microstructural and defect evolution in temperature …

To understand the irradiation response of tungsten in the ITER and a DEMO-like reactor,
irradiation effects on microstructure development, hardening and electrical resistivity of pure …

The status of the literature is reviewed for several thermophysical properties of pure solid
and liquid tungsten which constitute input for the modelling of intense plasma-surface …
