He migration and bubble formation in Ga stabilised delta-Pu

The migration and formation of He into bubbles in Ga stabilised δ-Pu has been investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. Formation energy calculations indicate that isolated He interstitial atoms are unfavourable and that it is preferential for He to reside as a substitutional atom at the exp...
