Conductor Materials Under Irradiation - The Neutron Environment Selects the Tape
Abstract
The magnet's survival in a neutron environment is a materials question that changes the conductor specification. Four results: the un-doped REBCO tape outlasts the doped (artificial-pinning) tape for fusion fluence; a Jc-onset-knee surrogate screens candidates; a graphene-reinforced aluminum stabilizer retains ~2×10⁴ S/cm at cryogenic temperature in 30–35 T; and a V₂O₃ self-protecting quench interlayer gives passive turn-to-turn protection.
