Helium in CERMET fuel - binding energies and diffusion

This thesis presents a first principle approach to model helium diffusionand retention in molybdenum. Results from electron structure calculations within the framework of density functional theory are used to assess parameters in a rate theory model. The model is used to reproduce experimental desor...
