'''International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF)''' is a collaborative international project to develop an accelerator-driven neutron source for testing materials under fusion-like conditions, producing a high-intensity fast neutron flux using a deuterium-lithium reaction to simulate the harsh environment of future fusion reactors like DEMO. Initiated in 1994 by Japan, the EU, the U.S., and Russia under the International Energy Agency, IFMIF has evolved since 2007 through the Japan-EU Broader Approach Agreement’s IFMIF/EVEDA phase, with its DONES variant beginning construction in Granada, Spain, in 2023, aiming to deliver critical data for fusion material durability. | '''International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF)''' is a collaborative international project to develop an accelerator-driven neutron source for testing materials under fusion-like conditions, producing a high-intensity fast neutron flux using a deuterium-lithium reaction to simulate the harsh environment of future fusion reactors like DEMO.
