Muon spin relaxation in mixed perovskite (LaAlO$$_3$$)$$_x$$(SrAl$$_{0.5}$$Ta$$_{0.5}$$O$$_3$$)$$_{1-x}$$ with $$xsimeq 0.3$$

伊藤 孝; 髭本 亘; 幸田 章宏*; 中村 惇平*; 下村 浩一郎*

Interactions (Internet), 245(1), p.25_1 - 25_7, 2024/12

We report on muon spin relaxation ($$mu^+$$SR) measurements in a mixed perovskite compound, (LaAlO$$_3$$)$$_{x}$$(SrAl$$_{0.5}$$Ta$$_{0.5}$$O$$_3$$)$$_{1-x}$$ with $$xsimeq 0.3$$ (LSAT), which is widely used as a single-crystalline substrate for thin film deposition. In zero applied field (ZF), muon depolarization due to the distribution of nuclear dipole fields was observed in the temperature range from 4 K to 270 K. Interestingly, $$mu^+$$SR time spectra in ZF maintained a Gaussian-like feature over the entire range, while the depolarization rate exhibited a monotonic decrease with increasing temperature. This behavior may be attributed to the thermally activated diffusion of muons between a few adjacent sites within a confined space of the angstrom scale, where the motionally averaged local field that each muon experiences can remain non-zero and result in maintaining the Gaussian-like line shape. The spatial distribution of electrostatic potential at lattice interstices evaluated via density functional theory calculations suggests that such a restriction of muon diffusion paths can be caused by the random distribution of cations with different nominal valences in the mixed perovskite lattice.

Quantifying uncertainty induced by scattering angle distribution using maximum entropy method

丸山 修平; 山本 章夫*; 遠藤 知弘*

Annals of Nuclear Energy, 205, p.110591_1 - 110591_13, 2024/09

This study developed a new method for evaluating the uncertainty in reactor core/shielding characteristics attributable to the scattering angle distribution, employing a random sampling (RS) technique integrated with continuous energy Monte Carlo (CEMC) calculations. The impact of neutron scattering angle is not negligible in the analysis of fast reactor cores and shielding. Recent advancements have enabled the high-accuracy assessment of nuclear data-induced uncertainty by merging CEMC calculations and the RS technique. Nonetheless, a method to quantify uncertainty due to scattering angle distribution remains unestablished. This study introduces a new approach for uncertainty quantification related to scattering angle distribution in CEMC-RS, utilizing the maximum entropy method. The effectiveness of this method was verified through comparison with results from the classical deterministic uncertainty quantification approach based on generalized perturbation theory. Overall, this method offers a more accurate tool for nuclear engineers and researchers in evaluating and managing uncertainties in reactor design and safety analysis.

Sintering behavior analysis of compacted dry recycled U$$_{0.7}$$Pu$$_{0.3}$$O$$_{2}$$ powder using master sintering curve theory

中道 晋哉; 砂押 剛雄*; 廣岡 瞬; Vauchy, R.; 村上 龍敏

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 595, p.155072_1 - 155072_11, 2024/07

Using dry recycled powders for uranium and plutonium mixed oxide (MOX) fuel production can reduce unnecessary storage and accountability of nuclear material in facilities. The shrinkage behavior of green compacts of dry recycled powders differs from that of conventional raw powders because the dry recycled MOX powder is obtained from the fabrication scrap of sintered pellets. The shrinkage behavior of dry recycled MOX powder has been investigated by dilatometry. Based on the shrinkage curves, sintering apparent activation energies were evaluated using the master sintering curve (MSC) and the constant rate of heating methods. The obtained values were higher than the energy evaluated for raw powder experiments. The sigmoid sintering prediction equation using the MSC function was constructed. The accumulation of data on the activation energy for various sintering conditions will lead to the wide application of this prediction formula in the future.

Dynamic transformation (DT) of austenite ($$gamma$$) to ferrite ($$alpha$$) in the hot deformation of various carbon steels was widely investigated. However, the nature of DT remains unclear due to the lack of quantitative analysis of stress partitioning between two phases and the uncertainty of local distribution of substitutional elements at the interface in multi-component carbon steels used in the previous studies. Therefore, in the present study, a binary Fe-Ni alloy with $$alpha$$+$$gamma$$ duplex microstructure in equilibrium was prepared and isothermally compressed in $$alpha$$+$$gamma$$ two-phase region to achieve quantitative analysis of microstructure evolution, stress partitioning and thermodynamics during DT. $$gamma$$ to $$alpha$$ DT during isothermal compression and $$alpha$$ to $$gamma$$ reverse transformation on isothermal annealing under unloaded condition after deformation were accompanied by Ni partitioning. The lattice strains during thermomechanical processing were obtained via in-situ neutron diffraction measurement, based on which the stress partitioning behavior between $$gamma$$ and $$alpha$$ was discussed by using the generalized Hooke's law. A thermodynamic framework for the isothermal deformation in solids was established based on the basic laws of thermodynamics, and it was shown that the total Helmholtz free energy change in the deformable material during the isothermal process should be smaller than the work done to the deformable material. Under the present thermodynamic framework, the microstructure evolution in the isothermal compression of Fe-14Ni alloy was well explained by considering the changes in chemical free energy, plastic and elastic energies and the work done to the material. In addition, the stabilization of the soft $$alpha$$ phase in Fe-14Ni alloy by deformation was rationalized since the $$gamma$$ to $$alpha$$ transformation decreased the total Helmholtz free energy by decreasing the elastic and dislocation energies.

The accident progression of the in-vessel phase of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 was analyzed using the MAAP code. Although there is a large uncertainty in the initial stage of accident progression behavior in Unit 1 with little measurement data, it is presumed to have similarities to that of Unit 3. As a result, in Unit 1, since there was almost no alternative water injection during the in-vessel phase, cooling of the debris transferred to the lower plenum was small. It was likely that a large molten pool of metals had formed, and that the steam supply to the high-temperature core materials was suppressed and metal oxidation was relatively small. The analysis results for Unit 1 were compared with those for Units 2 and 3, and differences between units such as the thermal conditions of the debris that relocated to the pedestal and the degree of metal oxidation were shown.

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A, 1063, p.169300_1 - 169300_7, 2024/06

A system for locating radioactive substances using a hexapod robot equipped with a Compton camera and light detection and ranging camera was developed, and its performance evaluation test was conducted at FUGEN, a nuclear facility owned by Japan Atomic Energy Agency. In the test, by projecting images of radioactive substances acquired with the Compton camera onto a three-dimensional model of the work environment acquired with a light detection and ranging camera, the locations where radioactive substances have accumulated and the dose rate is higher than the surrounding area were successfully visualized and identified.

Taking the importance of gas-liquid two-phase flows in large square channels for advanced nuclear reactors, such as ESBWR, we experimented with upward cap-bubbly flows in a large square channel. Local void fractions, axial gas velocities, and interfacial area concentrations for two bubble-size groups were measured at three axial locations. Based on the database, cap-bubbly flow characteristics in a large square channel were understood. The existing drift-flux and interfacial area concentration correlations were validated. The void fraction covariances were obtained and used to validate their existing correlations.

Radioactive Cs contamination has been one of the central issues in Fukushima and other legacy sites; however, atomic-scale characterization of radioactive Cs has never been successful. Here we report, for the first time, the direct imaging of radioactive Cs atoms using high-resolution high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy. As inclusions in Cs-rich microparticles, 27-36 wt.% of Cs (as Cs$$_{2}$$O) occurs in a type of zeolite called pollucite. The normalized formula for pollucite are expressed as (Cs,K,Ba)$$_{2.2}$$(Fe$$_{0.84}$$,Zn$$_{0.84}$$,X$$_{0.5}$$)$$_{2.2}$$Si$$_{4.1}$$O$$_{12}$$, (Cs,K,Ba)$$_{1.5}$$(Fe$$_{0.66}$$Zn$$_{0.32}$$X$$_{0.6}$$)$$_{1.6}$$Si$$_{4.6}$$O$$_{12}$$, and (Cs,K,Ba)$$_{1.7}$$(Fe$$_{0.60}$$Zn$$_{0.32}$$X$$_{1.0}$$)$$_{1.9}$$Si$$_{4.4}$$O$$_{12}$$ after normalization with 12 oxygen atoms (X includes other trace cations; Ti, Mn, Rb, Zr, Mo, and Sn). Atomic-resolution image of radioactive Cs atoms are obtained when viewing along the [111] zone axis, a view supported by image simulations using the multi-slice method. The occurrence of pollucite indicates that locally enriched Cs reacted with siliceous substances during meltdowns, presumably through hydrothermal reactions. In case of predominant occurrence of pollucite in debris, incorporation in pollucite structure retards leaching of radioactive Cs. Still, the atomic-resolution imaging of radioactive Cs is an important advance for better understanding the fate of radioactive Cs inside and outside of damaged reactors during severe accidents like Fukushima Daiichi.

Supramolecular organization of extractant molecules impacts metal ions separation behavior. Probing bulk and interfacial structures of the relevant systems is expected to provide key insights into the metal ion selectivity and kinetic aspects. The supramolecular features of two solvent extraction systems based on malonamide extractants, N,N,N′,N′-tetrahexylmalonamide (THMA) in toluene and N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-dibutyl-2-tetradecylmalonamide (DBMA) in n-heptane, were studied using small-angle X-ray scattering for the organic bulk phases, as well as interfacial tension and neutron reflectivity measurements for the interfaces. In the bulk solution, THMA forms dimeric/trimeric associates but no aggregates in toluene, while DBMA forms large aggregates in n-heptane. On the other hand, THMA accumulates in a diffuse layer at the interface at high THMA concentration, whereas DBMA forms a compact but thinner layer. After Pd(II) extraction, the thickness of interfacial layers decreases in the case of THMA, and totally vanishes in the case of DBMA. Based on these new structural information, two mechanisms are proposed for Pd(II) and Nd(III) extraction with malonamides. In toluene, THMA associates slightly accumulate in the vicinity of the interface, then coordinate Pd(II) and diffuse into the organic bulk phase. In n-heptane, DBMA aggregates adsorb at the interface then pick up Nd(III) cations in their polar cores and finally diffuse into the bulk.

Herein, a science-based uranium and plutonium mixed oxide (MOX) property model (Sci-M Pro) is derived for determining properties of MOX fuel and analyzing their performance as functions of Pu content, minor-actinide content, oxygen-to-metal ratio, and temperature. The property model is constructed by evaluating the effect of phonons and electronic defects on heat capacity and thermal conductivity of MOX fuels. The effect of phonons was evaluated based on experimental datasets related to lattice parameter, thermal expansion, and sound speeds. Moreover, the effect of electronic defects was determined by analyzing oxygen-potential data based on defect chemistry. Furthermore, the model evaluated the effect of the Bredig transition on the thermal properties of MOX fuel by analyzing the irradiation test results. The derived property model is applied to the performance code to analyze fast reactor fuel pins.

Investigation of sorption behavior of $$^{137}$$Cs in a river-sea system boundary area after the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident

The radiocesium ($$^{137}$$Cs) distribution between dissolved and particulate phases was examined in river water and coastal seawater as a function of the $$^{137}$$Cs sorption behavior on suspended particles. Dissolved $$^{137}$$Cs activity concentrations in the Tomioka River (salinity $$<$$ 0.1) and in coastal seawater at Tomioka fishery port (salinity $$>$$ 30), Fukushima Prefecture, from June 2019 to October 2021 were 3.6-20 Bq/m$$^{3}$$ (geometric mean 11 Bq/m$$^{3}$$) and 2.4-86 Bq/m$$^{3}$$ (13 Bq/m$$^{3}$$), respectively. Although the suspended particle concentration was lower in the river (0.2-44 mg/L; geometric mean 2 mg/L) than in seawater (0.8-24 mg/L; 6.4 mg/L), the mean $$^{137}$$Cs activity on suspended particles was 11,000 Bq/kg-dry in the river versus 3,200 Bq/kg-dry in seawater. Proportions of ion-exchangeable, organically bound, and refractory fractions of $$^{137}$$Cs on suspended particles were determined by sequential extraction. The ion-exchangeable fraction accounted for 0.3-2.0% (mean 1.2%) and 0.4-1.3% (0.8%) at the river and port sites, respectively. The organically bound fraction accounted for 0.3-4.8% (1.8%) and 0.1-5.5% (2.1%) at the river and port sites, respectively. In both areas, the refractory fraction accounted for $$>$$ 90% of $$^{137}$$Cs. Unexpectedly, the ion-exchangeable fraction did not differ between the river and port sites, and the percentage at the river site did not vary during the sampling period. Therefore, the ion-exchangeable fraction in the river's lower reach was originally low or had decreased before the particles arrived there. The small labile $$^{137}$$Cs fraction on suspended particles indicates that the mobility of radiocesium to marine biota in this coastal region is low.

First demonstration of a single-end readout position-sensitive optical fiber radiation sensor inside the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station based on wavelength-resolving analysis

寺阪 祐太; 佐藤 優樹; 瓜谷 章*

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A, 1062, p.169227_1 - 169227_6, 2024/05

We have developed a new position-sensitive optical fiber radiation sensor that achieves single-end readout and high dose rate application. The sensor determines the incident position of radiation on the optical fiber by using the wavelength dependency of light attenuation within the fiber. Through the analysis of the output wavelength spectrum from the fiber end, the incident position of radiation on the optical fiber can be inversely estimated using the spectrum unfolding procedure. Using this optical fiber sensor, we conducted a measurement of radiation distribution inside the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS). The actual trend of incident position of radiation was successfully reproduced in a high dose rate area, with a maximum dose rate exceeding 100 mSv/h. This validates the effectiveness of our new position-sensitive optical fiber radiation sensor.

銀河宇宙線の永年変化は銀河の活動に密接に関係しており、局所的な銀河磁場・星間雲・超新星残骸の近くの環境が反映される。高エネルギー銀河宇宙線によって大気中で生成される高エネルギーミューオンは、深い地層まで透過し、岩石中に放射性同位体を生成する。$$^{10}$$Beや$$^{26}$$Alのような長寿命の放射性核種は岩石中に蓄積されるため、高エネルギーミューオンの収量の長期変動、ひいては数百万年間の高エネルギー銀河宇宙線(GCR)の長期変動の調査に利用できる。本研究では、CERN SPSのCOMPASS実験ラインにて、160GeV/cの正ミューオンを合成石英プレートと花崗岩コアに照射して、岩石中の$$^{10}$$Beと$$^{26}$$Alの生成断面積を測定した。更に、ミューオンが直接起こす核破砕反応とミューオンが生成した二次粒子が引き起こす反応が、岩石中での長寿命核種の生成にそれぞれどの程度寄与するかを明らかにした。

Archie's cementation factors for natural rocks; Measurements and insights from diagenetic perspectives

Yuan, X.*; Hu, Q. H.*; Fang, X.*; Wang, Q. M.*; Ma, Y.*; 舘 幸男

Archie's cementation factor, m, is a critical parameter for petrophysical studies, and the value is influenced by several factors such as the shape, type, and size of grains, degrees of diagenesis, and associated pore structure. Using integrated experimental and theoretical approaches, the goal of this study is to obtain the cementation factor of rocks (both reservoir rock and caprock) and assess the impact of diagenesis processes on the values of the cementation factor. Thirteen samples of geologically diverse rocks (six mudstones, four fossiliferous limestones, two marbles, and one sandstone) were selected to achieve these research objectives. Two approaches, the diffusion of gas tracers and the Bosanquet formula calculation using pore-throat sizes from mercury intrusion porosimetry analyses, were used to derive the cementation factors of these rock samples. These rocks were categorized into two groups based on the correlation between average pore-throat diameter and diffusivity, and an exponential-law relationship between the cementation factor and porosity was determined for these sample groups. In addition, thin-section petrography and field emission-scanning electron microscopy observations were utilized to investigate diagenetic processes, with four diagenetic patterns being established: (1) strong compaction, strong cementation, and weak dissolution-diagenesis pattern; (2) weak compaction, medium cementation, and weak dissolution-diagenesis pattern; (3) weak compaction, medium cementation, and strong dissolution-diagenesis pattern; and (4) fracture-matrix pattern. The results indicated that diagenetic processes and microfractures contribute to the variability in the cementation factors in these rock samples.

従来の高線量試料分析法では被ばくリスクが高く、大量の二次放射性廃棄物が発生することから、放射線放出量を低減できる迅速な分析法が強く望まれている。このニーズに取り組むため、我々は液体シンチレーションカウンティングと2点検出によるキャピラリー過渡的等速電気泳動(ctITP)を組み合わせた$$^{90}$$Sr定量法を開発した。これは、1,4,7,10-テトラアザシクロドデカン-1,4,7,10-テトラ酢酸(DOTA)-$$^{90}$$Sr錯体を1回の操作で分離・分画する方法である。高線量の放射性試料をマイクロリットルレベルで取り扱うことができ、従来のイオン交換法よりも大幅に高速であるこの方法により、実高線量廃棄物中の$$^{90}$$Srを選択的に定量した。ctITPにおける濃縮・分離の成功は、Sr-DOTA錯体が解離不活性であることに起因する。
