Tungsten evolution under helium irradiation: Shape of bubbles by TEM and in-situ GISAXS analysis

The evolution of the tungsten microstructure and properties under helium irradiation could cause problems for both operational and safety reasons in fusion reactors. In particular, the presence of helium bubbles, formed mainly in the subsurface area, modifies the mechanical and retention properties...
