Abstract

Ion accelerator facility is a powerful tool that can be used to simulate neutron irradiation effects in reactor materials. At the NRC “Kurchatov Institute” - ITEP the heavy-ion accelerator HIPr is used for the ion-beam simulation of radiation damage in steels and alloys. Irradiation is provided with the wide range of metal ions (mainly Fe2+). It is essential to include helium and hydrogen beams for the proper simulation of transmutation driven mechanisms of swelling and void formation. Energies, beam line angle and intensity are determined for design of the second beam line for He/H implantation at HIPr.
