Results are summarized for measurements of the production rates for long-lived radioisotopes and helium in fusion reactor materials. Measurements have been performed at T(d,n) generators, near 14 MeV; at broad-spectrum Be(d,n) accelerator-based neutron fields; and in various fission reactors. These activation data are used to predict the production of these isotopes in fusion reactor materials for the simulation of fusion materials damage in fission reactor irradiations and as a stable product dosimeter. Nuclear data needs and future plans are discussed. 20 refs., 5 figs., 4 tabs.
