Status and plan of JENDL will be presented. After the release of JENDL-4.0 in 2010, six special purpose files have been developed. Four of them were already released and two are under preparation for the release. New decay and yield data for fission products were released as JENDL/FPD-2011 and JENDL/FPY-2011 in 2011, respectively. JENDL-4.0/HE released in 2015 includes proton and neutron induced reaction data up to 200 MeV. Comprehensive decay data were released as JENDL/DDF-2015 which contains data for 3,237 nuclides. New photonuclear reaction data JENDL/PD-2016 and an activation file JENDL/AD-2017 are under preparation for release. Regarding general purpose file, two activities are in progress. One is JENL-4.0u which is created for maintenance of JENDL-4.0 and the other is development of next version of JENDL. For the next JENDL, evaluation for light nuclei and structure material are in progress. It is planed that next version of JENDL will be JENDL-5 which contains nuclear data for all nuclei having natural abundance. Addition of covariance data will be one of the main targets.

Study on cross-section measurements has been promoted for Cs among long-lived fission products in ImPACT Project. The feasibility study on Se sample preparation also has been conducted to measure its cross sections in future. During the feasibility study, we started the neutron-capture cross-section measurements of stable Se isotopes. This paper reports research progresses on preparation of a radioactive Cs sample, neutron irradiation experiments with the Cs sample, and cross-section measurements of stable Se isotopes.

In the ImPACT project, high-precision mass analysis was performed on a Cs standard solution for using Cs included in the standard solution as an impurity to measure the Cs cross-sections. A Cs standard solution of only 10Bq (pg order) was analyzed, and the isotope ratio of Cs and Cs was obtained with an accuracy of 0.5%.

The decommissioning of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (1F) is an unexplored field. Although the investigations for inside primary containment vessel (PCV) by robots have been underway by IRID, actual situation inside the PCV and the characteristics of fuel debris have not been sufficiently clarified yet. Under such circumstances, the computational simulation with reliable data is an effective means for solving many problems for the 1F decommissioning. Here, as application examples using nuclear data such as JENDL-4.0, we will introduce some researches and developments on (1) prediction of dose rate distribution in PCV, (2) remotely operated vehicle (ROV) system to explore submerged fuel debris in PCV, (3) non-destructive assay of nuclear fuel materials in a fuel debris canister.

Cosmic-rays can generate a number of secondary particles by causing nuclear reactions in the atmosphere, and induce particle cascade so-called airshower. Precise simulation of airshower is of great importance for various purposes such as estimate of cosmic-ray doses for aircrews and public, evaluation of soft-error rates induced by cosmic-ray neutrons, and analysis of correlation between the atmospheric ionization rates and the Earth's environment. Developments of accurate nuclear reaction models and nuclear data libraries are the key issues in the airshower simulation. The results of airshower simulation performed by PHITS will be introduced in this presentation, together with how they have been used in the practical applications.

Our group has experience to carry out the experiment with small electrochemical devices at heavy-water-moderated Advanced Thermal Reactor (ATR, FUGEN), and observed a clear signal increase near the reactor core. The present study is aiming at demonstrating the response of the electrochemical device to tritium amount. The experiments were performed at (1) Pressurized right Water Reactor (PWR, tritium amount of 30 g and a great quantity of beta emitters) at a distance of 26 m from the core, and (2) Tritium Process Laboratory of Japan Atomic Energy Agency (TPL, tritium amount ~10 g) at a position of 8.6 m from the source. Signal increase was observed in both measurements. Analysis made clear that the detector signal is ascribed to the amount of low-energy beta emitters of plutonium 241 and tritium in the PWR experiment while it is attributed to the quantity of tritium in the TPL measurement.
