Abstract
In three recent comparative studies in HFIR and EBR-II where the effect of helium and solid transmutants could be assessed, it was found that in each case there was no significant perturbation of the macroscopic property change under consideration. These findings reinforce the belief that fast reactors can serve as a major tool for fusion materials studies and that the effects of helium and other transmutants can be treated as second-order perturbations to be studied by other methods. A number of new fusion-relevant insights derived from fast reactor studies are presented.
