NEA irradiation system ready to deploy at MITR
A new irradiation experimental system is ready for deployment. The rig, which is the focus of In-Core Real-Time Mechanical Testing of Structural Materials (INCREASE-I), an OECD Nuclear Energy Agency project, will be used to conduct stress-relaxation tests of stainless steel at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Reactor (MITR), according to the OECD NEA.

Availability of D-T fusion neutrons at TFTR has offered an opportunity to conduct measurements of both short-lived and long-lived radioactivity of direct interest to ITER and DEMO reactors in a realistic tokamak fusion reactor environment. Materials irradiated, spatial locations, and certain features of activation chareacteristics at TFTR are described.
