High Energy Density Physics
Radiation damage refers to the detrimental effects caused by the interaction of high-energy particles or electromagnetic radiation with matter, particularly materials exposed to radiation in high-energy density environments. This damage can alter the physical and chemical properties of materials, affecting their structural integrity and performance, especially in contexts where plasma interacts with walls, such as in fusion reactors or other high-energy applications.
congrats on reading the definition of Radiation Damage. now let's actually learn it.
