The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Alkali–aggregate reaction in activated fly ash systems (2007, methodology): “One measure that has been successfully used to control ASRinduced expansion is the partial replacement of Portland cement with fly ash [6–9].”
Alkali-silica reactions (ASR): literature review on parameters influencing laboratory performance testing (2012, background): “Silica fume rapidly binds alkalis probably due to a reaction very similar to ASR [111].”
Properties of fly ash concrete modified with hydrated lime and silica fume (2009, methodology): “Silica fume, having a greater surface area and higher SiO2 content, has been found to be more reactive than the fly ash [24] and, hence, it has been used in combination with fly ash in low levels of replacement of Portland cement with fly ash [25–28].”
