We report a simulation study of the effect of He-irradiation-induced surface vacancy-adatom
pair formation on the surface morphological evolution of plasma-facing component (PFC) …

Continuum-scale models that can reliably predict the behavior of helium in tungsten are of
interest to the fusion community due to the projected impact of these materials on fusion …

Over the past two decades, the US-DOE has funded multiple projects that rely on high-
performance computing and exascale computing platforms to accelerate scientific …

We report simulation results on the effect of helium (He) bubble bursting-mediated surface
hole formation on the surface morphological response of tungsten plasma-facing …

In fusion reactors, plasma-facing materials will be exposed to low-energy and high-flux
plasma of the hydrogen isotopes fuel, ie, deuterium (D) and tritium (T), along with helium …

Two of the simulations discussed in a prior article (Hammond et al 2019 Nucl. Fusion 59
066035) were affected by a simulation glitch. We repeated the affected calculations and …

Fibre-like nanostructure named fuzz can form on tungsten (W) surface under the irradiation
of helium (He) plasma. While the W fuzz growth can be suppressed by the bombardment of …

In this study, we investigated the diffusion and incidence of helium on tungsten surfaces
using first principles and molecular dynamics methods. For three common tungsten surfaces …

The surface modifications in W-xTa alloys (x= 0, 6, 11 wt.%), as potential material candidates
for tokamak components facing the fusion plasma, have been assessed at a temperature …

In this paper, we used the conventional method to simulate the helium irradiation on
tungsten (110) surface with irradiation energy of 30 eV at temperature of 1300 K. Traditional …
