Neutron resonance transmission analysis (NRTA) is a method for non-destructive measurement of nuclear material by using a time-of-flight (TOF) technique with a pulsed neutron source. For NRTA system to carry out the short-distance TOF measurements with high resolutions, a short-pulsed neutron source is required. Laser-driven neutron sources (LDNSs) is very suitable as such a neutron source because of its short pulse width. Moreover, the compactness of the laser system is also expected due to the remarkable development of laser technology in recent years. In the present study, we have developed a technology for applying LDNS to the NRTA system and conducted the demonstration experiment using the LFEX laser at Osaka University to investigate the feasibility of the system. In this experiment, we successfully observed the neutron resonance peaks of indium and silver samples.

A compact Nuclear Resonance Transmission Analysis (NRTA) system using a Laser Driven Neutron Source (LDNS) has been developed as a part of the development of nuclear non-proliferation technology supported by the MEXT. In NRTA, the neutron energy emitted from a pulsed neutron source is measured using the time-of-flight (TOF) method. LDNS is of interest because of its short pulse width, which is necessary for accurate TOF measurements over short flight distances. In the short-distance TOF measurement, there will be a large gamma-ray background event due to the coincidence of the timing of the arrival of 2.2 MeV gamma-rays due to neutron capture on hydrogen in the moderator and the timing of the arrival of neutrons around the resonance energy. Since the LDNS is still under development, the neutron flux is not sufficient and it is desirable to use a detector with high detection efficiency. For these reasons, we have developed a detector with low efficiency to gamma-rays and high efficiency to neutrons (multilayer neutron detector). As one of the results of this year's experiments, we confirmed that the multilayer neutron detector have low sensitivity to gamma-rays.

Future synchrotron light source using a 5-GeV energy recovery linac (ERL) is under proposal by our Japanese collaboration team, and we are conducting R&D efforts for that. We are developing high-brightness DC photocathode guns, two types of cryomodules for both injector and main superconducting (SC) linacs, and 1.3 GHz high CW-power RF sources. We are also constructing the Compact ERL (cERL) for demonstrating the recirculation of low-emittance, high-current beams using above-mentioned critical technologies.

Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:11.64(Physics, Multidisciplinary)The nucleus Re is of interest from the astrophysical point of view, since production of this nucleus in stars could change an accuracy of nucleo-cosmochronometer. In order to calculate the neutron capture cross section theoretically, it is necessary to know the spin of nucleus. However, the spin of Re has not been established so far. In order to clarify the nuclear structure of this nucleus, we plan laser spectroscopy of Re, and first, we measured the production yield of the () reaction. The experiment was carried out by irradiating a W target with a proton beam from the JAEA tandem accelerator. Rhenium was chemically separated from the irradiated sample, and then -ray measurements were performed. As a result, we determined the production yield of the W()Re reaction for the first time and suggested the same spin for Re as the known spin of =8 for Re.

Some nondestructive assay (NDA) methods for validation of highly radioactive nuclear material have been developed under the subsidiary for nuclear security promotion of MEXT. Nuclear Resonance Transmission Analysis (NRTA) is able to measure the density of each isotope of fissile and quite useful for analysis of solid samples like fuel debris. However, it is not easy to install due to a large Time-of-Flight (TOF) system which is required for the precise measurement. So, we have proposed a NRTA combined with Laser Driven Neutron Source (LDNS). TOF system would be shortened less than 5 m because of extremely short pulse width of LDNS. A conceptual design of LDNS-NRTA will be presented.

Neutron Resonance Transmission Analysis (NRTA) is one of the active neutron NDA techniques being developed under the subsidiary for "promotion of strengthening nuclear security or the like" of MEXT. A short pulse neutron source is required to apply NRTA method to an accurate measurement of nuclear materials. A laser driven neutron source (LDNS) is considered to be such a neutron source. A study of applicability of LDNS to NRTA, and neutron detector development are in progress. The Monte Carlo simulation code PHITS was used for designing a neutron generation part, a neutron flight path, and a neutron detector system.
