Times Cited Count:10 Percentile:75.41(Physics, Nuclear)The structures of the neutron-rich Co isotopes were investigated via () knockout reactions at the Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory, RIKEN. Level schemes were reconstructed using the coincidence technique, with tentative spin-parity assignments based on the measured inclusive and exclusive cross sections. Comparison with shell-model calculations suggests coexistence of spherical and deformed shapes at low excitation energies in the Co isotopes.

Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:32.74(Nuclear Science & Technology)The JT-60SA vacuum vessel (150 tons) is a double wall torus structure and the maximum major radius of 5.0 m and height of 6.6 m. The manufacturing design concept is that the vessel is split in the 10 toroidal sectors manufactured at factory, and assembled on-site; seven of the 40-degree sectors, two of the 30-degree beside final one, and the final of the 20-degree. The final sector is assembled with the VV thermal shield and toroidal field magnets into the 340-degree as prepared in one sector. Sectors are temporally fitted on-site and adjusted one over the other before the assembly. After measurement of the dimensions and the reference, these sectors are transferred onto the cryostat base. First, three 80-degree sectors are manufactured with mating each 40-degree sector by direct joint welding. The rest sectors including the final sector are jointed with splice plates. Welding manipulator and its guide rails are used for these welding. In this paper, the detail of the VV sectors assembly including the final sector is explained. Welding technologies to joint the two of 40-degree sectors are reported with the present manufacturing status and the welding trial on the vertical stub with the partial mock-up of the final sector are discussed with the assembly process.

Times Cited Count:35 Percentile:77.73(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Protein nanowires exhibiting specific biological activities hold promise for interacting with living cells and controlling and predicting biological responses such as apoptosis, endocytosis and cell adhesion. Here we report the result of the interaction of a single high-energy charged particle with protein molecules. Degradation of the human serum albumin nanowires was examined using trypsin. The biotinylated human serum albumin nanowires bound avidin, demonstrating the high affinity of the nanowires. Human serum albumin-avidin hybrid nanowires were also fabricated from a solid state mixture and exhibited good mechanical strength. The biotinylated human serum albumin nanowires can be transformed into nanowires exhibiting a biological function such as avidin-biotinyl interactions and peroxidase activity. The present technique is a versatile platform for functionalizing the surface of any protein molecule with an extremely large surface area.

Times Cited Count:45 Percentile:72.32(Multidisciplinary Sciences)The development of organic semiconducting nanowires that act as charge carrier transport pathways in flexible and lightweight nano-electronics is a major scientific challenge. We report on the fabrication of fullerene nanowires that is universally applicable to its derivatives (pristine C, methanofullerenes of C and C, and indene C bis-adduct). Nanowires with radii of 811 nm were formed via a chain polymerization reaction induced by a high-energy ion beam. Fabrication of a poly(3-hexylthiophene): [6,6]-phenyl C butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic cell including PCBM nanowires with precisely-controlled length and density demonstrates how application of this methodology can improve the power conversion efficiency of these inverted cells.

Times Cited Count:12 Percentile:66.62(Nuclear Science & Technology)The real vacuum vessel (VV) manufacturing of JT-60SA has started since Nov. 2009 at Toshiba. Prior to starting manufacturing, fundamental welding R&Ds had been performed by three stages. In the first stage, primary tests for screening welding method were performed. In the second stage, the trial welding for 1m-long straight and curved double shell samples were conducted. The dependences of welding quality and distortion on the welding conditions, such as arc voltage and current, setting accuracy, welding sequence, the shape of grooves, etc. were measured. In addition, welding condition with low heat input was explored. In the last stage, fabrication sequence was confirmed and established by the trial manufacturing of the 20 upper half mock-up. This poster presents the R&D results obtained in the first and second stages.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.01(Polymer Science)The nanowires based on polystyrene (PS) and polycarbosilane (PCS) were formed by 450 MeV Xe beam irradiation to their thin films. The nanowires, which formed by crosslinking reaction along the single ion path, can isolated by development procedures. This technique is sometimes called as single particle nanofabrication technique (SPNT). In this paper, tow step irradiation of ion beam and ray was carried out in order to control their radial sizes. The radial sizes of nanowires, based on PS and PCS were increased with the dose of ray. The change of radial sizes, which depended on the dose, was quantitatively measured, and we discussed in terms of radiation induced gel formation.

Based on the R&Ds including trial manufacturing of 20 deg. upper half mock-up, the real product manufacturing of vacuum vessel for JT-60SA has started since November 2009 at TOSHIBA Keihin Product Operations. The cross section of the VV is D-shaped and made of low cobalt content SUS316L. The height and outer diameter of the torus are 6.6m and 9.95m respectively. The weight is about 150 ton. The present status of the manufacturing is introduced in this poster presentation. 2009 for the inboard (IB) and since August, 2010 for the outboard (OB). Completed IB and OB 20-degree upper or lower segments for VV-D02 and VV-D03 will be connected into full 40-degree IB and OB segments from December, 2010. The welding between 40-degree IB and OB segments of the first 40-degree sector (VV-D02) is to be started at JAEA Naka Fusion Institute in 2011.
