Abstract
Ion irradiation is often used to simulate the effects of neutron irradiation due to reduced activation of materials and vastly increased dose rates. However, the low penetration depth of ions requires the development of small-scale mechanical testing techniques, such as nanoindentation and microcompression, in order to measure mechanical properties of the irradiated material. In this study, several candidate structural alloys for Gen-IV reactors (800H, T91, nanocrystalline T91 and 14YWT) were irradiated with 70 MeV Fe9+ ions at 452 °C to an average damage of 20.68 dpa. Both the nanoindentation and microcompression techniques revealed significant irradiation hardening and an increase in yield stress after irradiation in austenitic 800H and ferritic-martensitic T91 alloys. Ion irradiation was observed to have minimal effect on the mechanical properties of nanocrystalline T91 and oxide dispersion strengthened 14YWT. These observations are further supported by line broadening analysis of X-ray diffraction measurements, which show a significantly smaller increase in dislocation density in the 14YWT and nanocrystalline T91 alloys after irradiation. In addition, good agreement was observed between cross-sectional nanoindentation and the damage profile from SRIM calculations.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
