Predictions of Point-Defect Agglomeration in Nickel and Copper During Irradiation

摘要

A set of chemical rate equations which are used to describe the process of clustering of radiation damage in materials are transformed into dimensionless units, suitable for numerical integration using a computer. Predictions of the cluster density and size as a function of irradiation time for a variety of experimental conditions are given in graphical form for nickel and copper. (Atomindex citation 11:524873)
