Volume distribution function d(R) (in arbitrary units) vs defect radius R (Å) for Optifer irradiated with 2.4 dpa at 523 K (continuous line) and irradiated with 2.4 dpa at 523 K then tempered 2 h at 1043 K (dotted line); the experimental error bands of such distributions, not reported in the picture, are 20% approximately [after the work of Coppola et al. (2007)]. These distributions are obtained by transformation of the nuclear component of the difference between each irradiated sample and its reference. |
