Title: Fission-fragment excitation of metal electrons

Journal Article · · Sov. At. Energy (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1007/BF01123661· OSTI ID:5577881

The authors mathematically formulate the formation and relaxation of excited-electron regions along the paths of fission fragments under conditions of first wall sputtering and ionization and fission fragment transport into the wall. Their model incorporates all collisional and absorptional aspects of energy transfer between fragments and electrons and includes thermal diffusion and heat transfer between electrons and the metal lattice. Interactions with quasi particles in the solid-state regime are also given consideration.
