Infos

This book covers the Resistivity Recovery (RR) technique, underlying its physical principles, performance and problematic. A concise review on the state of the art is provided, showing the advances in radiation modelling, linking both experimental and theoretical fields. The reader will find a data compilation and comparison of up-to-date results obtained from the European Fusion Development Agreement model alloys. 

Begoña Gómez-Ferrer is currently a post-doc researcher at the Fusion Technology Division of the National Fusion Laboratory CIEMAT in Madrid, Spain. Her research interests include the study of dielectric and optical properties of specific insulators, fibres optics and windows for future fusion reactors.
