Abstract Because of the important application of the austenitic stainless steel in the nuclear industry, formation enrgies of a single vacancy(V), a self-interstitial atom(SIA), an interstitial helium atom(HeI) and helium-vacancy(He-V) clusters in γ-Fe, which has the same faced-centered cubic (fcc) structure as the austenitic stainless steel, are calculated by molecule statics. The modified embedded atom method potential, Wilson-Johnson potential and Beck potential are employed to describe the interactions of Fe-Fe, Fe-He and He-He respectively. The calculation results show that the formation energy of slit <100> SIA in γ-Fe is lower than that of slit <110> in α-Fe, and the tetrahedral interstitial position in γ-Fe is the most stable site for HeI. When the number of helium atoms in cluster of HenV0, HenV1, HenV2, HenV3 is 2, 5, 9, 11 respectively, the clusters will self-trap by forming Frenkel pair. The He/V of self-trapped cluster is not a constant, it will gradually decrease with the number of vacancies increasing.
