Earth and nuclear materials at an atomistic scale - interaction with radiation and water
The successful disposal of radioactive waste arising from civilian nuclear power production or weapons programmes requires an understanding of processes taking place over timescales ranging from picoseconds to millennia and distance scales of nm to km. We concentrate on the small distance and long lime scale which can provide a more deterministic understanding of the behaviour of nuclear waste than large scale repository models. We apply fundamental, atomistic approaches to reveal underlying physical and chemical processes. Confidence in our knowledge of the underlying mechanisms is the only way to ensure the safety of disposed materials over the timescales mandated by regulators. We use nuclearised analytical techniques to examine the atomic scale effects arising from the irradiation of materials with highly energetic light and heavy ions, neutrons and high-energy electrons to accelerate how radiation damage accumulates over time. We also compare radiation damage occurring in natural analogue materials such as zircon with materials doped with 238Pu to accelerate actinide radiation damage effects directly.
