Studies for accelerator-driven system in J-PARC/JAEA

Sasa, Toshinobu   

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) proposes a transmutation of minor actinides (MA) by Accelerator-driven System (ADS). A lead-bismuth eutectic alloy (LBE) is used as a spallation target and a coolant of subcritical core because LBE has a good spallation neutron production performance and a chemically inert characteristic. However, the compatibility with steels is unfavourable for the typical structural materials such as a 316 stainless steel. To obtain the data for ADS design, JAEA plans to construct the Transmutation Experimental Facility (TEF) within the framework of the J-PARC project, which consists of two buildings, an ADS Target Test Facility (TEF-T) and a Transmutation Physics Experimental Facility (TEF-P). The activities to realize the TEF, a roadmap to establish the ADS transmutor and latest elemental test results for TEF construction will be introduced.
