First-Principles Calculations of the Diffusivity of Interstitial Helium in Alpha‑U Considering Anisotropy, Isotope Effects, and Quantum Effects

The interstitial migration of helium in alpha-U, which is planned to be used as a tritium storage material for nuclear fusion reactors and as a metallic fuel for advanced nuclear reactors, is studied by first-principles calculations. First, all migration paths are identified using the nudged elastic...
