Hydrogen and its detection in fusion and fission nuclear materials – a review

Fusion and fission reactions are profoundly dependent on hydrogen for sustained reactions. is fueled by the isotopes of hydrogen, predominantly hydrogen-based moderators slow neutrons to propagate chain Intentional tritium production in fusion concomitant reactors introduce challenges. The technology efficiently extract, harvest, quantify from advanced molten salt coolants breeder materials will require more pronounced research development. Measuring quantifying necessary all areas nuclear materials. Although many characterization techniques cannot directly detect numerous provide information understand behavior
