A rock excavation grouting technology has been recently studied as significant technology for reducing the ingress of water into the deep repository. However, it has not been studied for applying to the coastal region, where it is discussed to be a more suitable region for the geological disposal in Japan. The latest material called colloidal silica grout (CSG) is good for sealing narrow fractures but is known to be sensitive to the salinity of groundwater because of its gelling property with salt accelerator. Although the gelling of CSG can be controlled by adding an acidic pH adjuster, the methodology for delivering the appropriate grout is not well established for such conditions of saline groundwater. Therefore, this research project was established to enhance the existing rock grouting technology for deep repositories.

As engineering technique for geological disposal, a lot of advancement development of the grout technology has been performed. But the design, construction method in consideration of the properties of matter acquisition and mechanism of the hardening that assumed a seawater condition bottom is non-establishment. As we carried out the knowledge under saline water, the basic properties acquisition, the penetration properties acquisition, a study revue based on such situation.

The Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory (URL) Project is being pursued by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) to enhance the reliability of relevant disposal technologies through investigations of the deep geological environment within the host sedimentary formations at Horonobe, northern Hokkaido. This report summarizes the results of the Phase II investigations carried out from April 2005 to June 2014 to a depth of 350m. Integration of work from different disciplines into a "geosynthesis" ensures that the Phase II goals have been successfully achieved and identifies key issues that need to made to be addressed in the Phase II investigations Efforts are made to summarize as many lessons learnt from the Phase II investigations and other technical achievements as possible to form a "knowledge base" that will reinforce the technical basis for both implementation and the formulation of safety regulations.

We have synthesised the research results from Mizunami/Horonobe URLs and geo-stability projects in the second mid-term research phase. It could be used as technical bases for NUMO/Regulator in each decision point from sitting to beginning of disposal (Principal Investigation to Detailed Investigation Phase). High quality construction techniques and field investigation methods have been developed and implemented and these will be directly applicable to the National Disposal Program (along with general assessments of hazardous natural events and processes). It will be crucial to acquire technical knowledge on decisions of partial backfilling and final closure by actual field experiments in Mizunami/Horonobe URLs as main themes for the next phases.

Times Cited Count：52 Percentile：70.47(Biochemistry & Molecular Biology)Here we report the new features and improvements in our latest release of the H-Invitational Database, a comprehensive annotation resource for human genes and transcripts. H-InvDB, originally developed as an integrated database of the human transcriptome based on extensive annotation of large sets of fulllength cDNA (FLcDNA) clones, now provides annotation for 120 558 human mRNAs extracted from the International Nucleotide Sequence Databases (INSD), in addition to 54 978 human FLcDNAs, in the latest release H-InvDB. We mapped those human transcripts onto the human genome sequences (NCBI build 36.1) and determined 34 699 human gene clusters, which could define 34 057 protein-coding and 642 non-protein-coding loci; 858 transcribed loci overlapped with predicted pseudogenes.

The Center for Computational Science and E-systems of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (CCSE/JAEA) has started a program to construct an international computational infrastructure in atomic energy research field called the AEGIS (Atomic Energy Grid InfraStructure) in April, 2006. The development is based on numerous experiences and technologies acquired from the development of the STA (Seamless Thinking Aid) and the ITBL (Information Technology Based Laboratory) infrastructure software. In this paper, we will introduce two key achievements prior to the AEGIS program: "Interoperable system between UNICORE in Germany and ITBL" which achieves international sharing of computational resources, and the "STARPC Plus" which can construct a compact grid system.

Japan Nuclear Cycle Development Institute. (JNC) is developing two underground research laboratory projects; the Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory(MIU) Project for crystalline rock,.at Tono Geoscience Center (TGC) and the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory ・Project for・ sedimentary rock at the Horonobe Underground Research Center. Both projects are intended for research and development of geological disposal technology for high-level radioactive wastes. At this time, these two underground research laboratory projects are advancing to the Construction Phase (Phase II) from the Surface-based Investigation Phase (Phase I). Therefore it was considered appropriate for JNC to hold an international conference to introduce the two underground research laboratory projects and R&D results from Phase I, to have presentations on overseas URLs, to exchange opinions by researchers in each field of research and to reflect the conference outcome in a future R&D plan. The Conference was held in two parts. Part 1, the "International Conference on Geoscientific Study in Mizunami '04 (ICGM '04)" featured the MIU Project and the Regional Hydrogeological Study Project performed by TGC. It was held in Mizunami City at the Sogo Bunka Center from October 21st to 22nd. In Part 2, the "International Workshop on Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory Project", featured the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory Project performed by the Horonobe Underground Research Center. It was held at Horonobe Town Hall from, October 25th to 26th 2004. This Technical Report documents the ICGM'04 program, abstracts of presentations and slides and transcription of "Panel Discussions II and "Summary of the Conference"

A superconducting AVF cyclotron with a bending limit of 900 MeV and a focusing limit of 300 MeV is being designed to meet the requirements for the research in materials science and biotechnology at TIARA facility of JAERI. The spiral-sector shape of the cyclotron magnet has been optimized for acceleration of a 300 MeV proton to produce sufficient focusing forces in an extraction region. An energy range of the superconducting AVF cyclotron overlaps with that of the present K110 JAERI AVF cyclotron. Characteristics of a resonator for the superconducting AVF cyclotron have been investigated using the MAFIA code. An acceleration voltage in a frequency range of 24 to 64 MHz can be produced by the resonator with a 
/2 excitation mode.
