Electron microscopy and multi-scale modelling of radiation damage recovery in tungsten

The thesis is concerned with understanding the recovery mechanisms of radiation damage in tungsten. Tungsten is a key material in next-generation fusion reactors such as ITER, which will be exposed to intense neutron radiation, plasma and high temperatures, and its durability will determine the reac...
