Simulation of radiation damage via alpha decay in BFS:PC grouts using 4He2+ ion acceleration

The impact of alpha radiation on cements used to encapsulate intermediate-level waste (ILW) is not well understood. ILW wastes can contain high levels of alpha-emitting radionuclides, meaning that the grouts used to encapsulate them are exposed to significant ionising radiation. Thus, a damaged regi...
