The Varying Temperature Irradiation Experiment in the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) was carried out in the framework of the Japan-USA fusion cooperation program (JUPITER). The objective of the experiment is to investigate the performance of fusion structural materials subject to temperature variation during operation. The experiment will also contribute to re-examining the available fission
