[HTML][HTML] Molecular dynamics simulations of high-dose damage production and defect evolution in tungsten

F Granberg, J Byggmästar, K Nordlund - Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2021 - Elsevier
Tungsten has been chosen as the plasma-facing wall material in fusion reactors, due to its
high density and melting point. The wall material will not only be sputtered at the surface, but …
