Abstract
This paper presents the results of imitation experiments concerning th e effects of fusion reactor conditions on the properties of mirrors ma de of stainless steel, copper and beryllium. The neutron irradiation w as imitated using MeV energy range ions. To imitate the effects of cha rge exchange atoms (CXA) bombardment, keV energy range D+ and He+ ions were used. From the data obtained it was concluded that not only the reflectivity but also the resistance to CXA sputtering have to be take n into account when choosing the materials for the first mirrors of a fusion reactor.
