This report provides the results of an inquiry into the feasibility of enhancing tritium production levels through the activation of helium-3 following its external addition to the moderator system of a CANDU reactor. The physical basis for the scheme lies in the fact that the cross section for ...
Well, we think helium-3 would have to be used in nuclear fusion reactors. Keep in mind that a nuclear fusion reactor is completely different from our existing nuclear fission reactors. Basically a nuclear plant powered by nuclear fission derives its energy from the splitting of atoms. While a...

Radiation-induced deterioration of fission reactor materials is dominated by displacement damage. In fusion reactors, the influence of (n,α) produced helium upon material deterioration is regarded to be of equal importance because of the high nuclear reaction rate caused by the high-energy fusion ne...
被引量: 3发表: 2001年 Characterization and assessment of ferritic/martensitic steels Ferritic/martensitic steels are candidate structural materials for a DEMO fusion reactor and are investigated intensively within the frame of the European Long Term Fusion Technology Programme. This report summarizes genera...
Helium-3 is a trace element in the solar wind, and the lunar surface has absorbed larger quantities of helium-3 than have been found on Earth. If mining on the Moon ever becomes practical, helium-3 would be a valuable fuel for nuclear fusion power. Other instruments… ...

The estimated world T inventory is about 30 kg while a 500 MW (thermal power) fusion reactor will burn about 28 kg of T per year (assuming operation at full capacity).3 To solve the issue of the T scarcity, it is envisaged to produce it using lithium through the following reaction:4...
