Vs. Voitsenya et al., ON THE INFLUENCE OF FUSION-REACTOR CONDITIONS ON OPTICAL-PROPERTIES OF METALLIC PLASMA-VIEWING MIRRORS, Fusion engineering and design, 34-5, 1997, pp. 365-368
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. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
