Description

The neutron files are the output from the program SPECTRA-PKA, containing the product atoms, recoil rates and displacement per atoms calculated for a thermal neutron spectrum interacting with pure Zr, Zr2(Fe,Ni) and Zr(Fe,Cr)2. The proton files are the output from the program SRIM for 2MeV protons interacting with pure Zr, Zr2(Fe,Ni) and Zr(Fe,Cr)2 using the Kinchin-Pease (kp) and full cascade (fc) calculation option available in SRIM. Using equation (1) from the paper 'Modelling the interaction of primary irradiation damage and precipitates: implications for experimental irradiation of zirconium alloys', the number of vacancies can be converted into displacements per atom.
