The fast neutrons will cause atomic displacement and transmutation reactions in the wall material. For example after 20 years of operation, a niobium wall would contain 10 at % Zr, 0.06 at % Y, 0.28 at % He, and 0.5 at %H53h The impact on the mechanical properties of construction materials due to displacement damage and radioactive transformation is under intensive study but does not properly fall under the subject matter of this chapter. 

Electronic Excitation. The storage of energy in an insulating material by the absorption of ionizing radiation occurs via two major processes, namely, electronic excitation and displacement damage. Radiation damage by these processes in insulators has been a topic of intense research for decades and several excellent review articles already exist concerning a variety of material types (eg. oxides (1-5), alkali halides (6-8) and fluorites (9)).
