The -electron states of NdB
were determined by observing crystalline electric field (CEF) excitations with inelastic neutron scattering experiments. Our analysis yields CEF excitation energies of 2.8, 12.4, 17.2, and 25.4 meV. The
-electron states are simply described by one of
-multiplets
with negligibly small mixing. The ground state is the pseudo-quartet consist of the ground doublet dominated by
and the first excited doublet dominated by
at 2.8 meV, which is consistent with magnetic specific heat and entropy reported in earlier study. The simple
-electron states in NdB
are the consequence of the strong uniaxial and in-plane isotropic CEF potential due to the local structure of Nd
ions with point symmetry

Sm M
ssbauer effect between Sm

state is comparable to the 2nd order Doppler shift, consideration of the 2nd order Doppler shift is required to precisely discuss Sm valence state through the shifts of the M
ssbauer spectra. In addition, the plots of the isomer shifts obtained by the M
ssbauer spectroscopy against the Sm valence states estimated from Sm L-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy exhibit a linear correlation except for that in SmOs

被引用回数:2 パーセンタイル:0.00(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Laser-driven neutron sources (LDNSs) can generate strong short-pulse neutron beams, which are valuable for scientific studies and engineering applications. Neutron resonance transmission analysis (NRTA) is a nondestructive technique used for determining the areal density of each nuclide in a material sample using pulsed thermal and epithermal neutrons. Herein, we report the first successful NRTA performed using an LDNS driven by the Laser for Fast Ignition Experiment at the Institute of Laser Engineering, Osaka University. The key challenge was achieving a well-resolved resonance transmission spectrum for material analysis using an LDNS with a limited number of laser shots in the presence of strong background noise. We addressed this by employing a time-gated Li-glass scintillation neutron detector to measure the transmission spectra, reducing the impact of electromagnetic noise and neutron and gamma-ray flashes. Output waveforms were recorded for each laser shot and analyzed offline using a counting method. This approach yielded a spectrum with distinct resonances, which were attributed to
In and
Ag, as confirmed through neutron transmission simulation. The spectrum was analyzed using the least-square nuclear-resonance fitting program, REFIT, demonstrating the possibility of using an LDNS for nondestructive areal-density material characterization.

u) is expected for L1
-FeNi because of the ordered arrangement of the elements. This study reports the magnetic properties of uniaxially oriented L1
-FeNi films with island structures fabricated by a novel method involving the radio-frequency sputter deposition of FeNi alloy films onto a LaAlO
(110) substrate, followed by nitrogen insertion and topotactic extraction. FeNiN(110) films are epitaxially grown on the LAO(110) plane by the nitriding and additional annealing process of the FeNi alloy films at high temperatures under ammonia gas to reduce the volume fraction of crystallographic variants. Uniaxially oriented L1
-FeNi alloy films with island structures are obtained after the topotactic denitriding of the FeNiN films. The uniaxial magnetic anisotropy of the L1
-FeNi films is determined from the magnetization curves and via magnetic torque measurements of the films. The obtained L1
-FeNi film exhibiting a relatively high superlattice order parameter of 0.74 yielded a uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy of ~0.63 MJ/m
at 300 K, as well as coercivities of 319 and 358 kA/m at 300 and 10 K, respectively. This coercivity is the highest value reported for artificial L1
-FeNi to date.

The atomic masses of isotopes of elements beyond fermium, which can presently only be produced online via fusion-evaporation reactions, have until recently been determined only from decay chains reaching nuclides with known atomic masses. Especially in the case of lower-yield nuclides, for which the sufficiently detailed nuclear spectroscopy required to fully determine the nuclear structure is not possible, such indirect mass determinations may suffer systematic errors. For many superheavy nuclides, their decay chains end in spontaneous fission or in
-decay prior to reaching nuclides of known mass. To address this dearth of accurate atomic masses, we have developed a multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrograph that can make use of decay-correlations to accurately and precisely determine atomic masses for the very low-yield superheavy nuclides.

In order to find radioactive hot spots inside reactor building rooms from structural data together with air dose rate measurement data, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) has been recently suggested as a promising scheme. The scheme has been examined in simplified room models and its high estimation feasibility has been confirmed by employing Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System (PHITS) as a radiation simulation code. In this paper, we apply the scheme to complex room models inside real reactor buildings. The target rooms are pool canal circulation system room and main circulation system room in Japan Materials Testing Reactor (JMTR) at Oarai area, Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA). In these real rooms, we create STL format structural data based on Computer Aided Design (CAD) models made directly from their point group data measured by laser scanning devices, and we notice that the total number of their surface meshes in these real rooms reaches to the order of 1 million. Then, this order of the mesh number clearly indicates that one needs a simplified radiation simulation code considering only direct transmission of gamma ray as a radiation calculation instead of PHITS demanding high computational costs. By developing such a simplified code and customizing it to perform LASSO scheme, we consequently confirm that LASSO scheme driven by the simplified simulation can also successfully predict unknown radioactive hot spots on real structural models.

被引用回数:26 パーセンタイル:96.42(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Neutrons are powerful tools for investigating the structure and properties of materials used in science and technology. Recently, laser-driven neutron sources (LDNS) have attracted the attention of different communities, from science to industry, in a variety of applications, including radiography, spectroscopy, security, and medicine. However, the laser-driven ion acceleration mechanism for neutron generation and for establishing the scaling law on the neutron yield is essential to improve the feasibility of LDNS. In this paper, we report the mechanism that accelerates ions with spectra suitable for neutron generation. We show that the neutron yield increases with the fourth power of the laser intensity, resulting in the neutron generation of in
at a maximum, with
Wcm
, 900 J, 1.5 ps lasers. By installing a "hand-size" moderator, which is specially designed for the LDNS, it is demonstrated that the efficient generation of epithermal (0.1-100 eV) neutrons enables the single-shot analysis of composite materials by neutron resonance transmission analysis (NRTA). We achieve the energy resolution of 2.3% for 5.19-eV neutrons 1.8 m downstream of the LDNS. This leads to the analysis of elements and isotopes within sub-
s times and allows for high-speed nondestructive inspection.

J-PARC加速器のコリメータやワイヤースキャナモニタの機械駆動には、ステッピングモータが使用されている。これらの駆動装置ハードウェアは、J-PARC建設当初から使用されているものが多く経年劣化対策が必要となっている。そこで、2017年ごろからモーターや制御系の更新を進めることとなった。ところが、RCS H0コリメータのステッピングモータを現行品に更新したところ、誤動作が生じた。これは、モータードライバから発生するノイズにより、駆動部制御系がLS(リミットスイッチ)の状態を正しく認識できず、動作に支障が生じたものであった。確認のため、新旧のステッピングモータから発生するノイズを簡易テスト環境で測定したところ、明らかに現行品の方が大きいことが明らかとなった。そこで対策として、1本の多芯ケーブルに束ねられたステッピングモータの配線を、電源系とLS信号系に分離したところ、ノイズレベルが1/10程度になり、正常な動作を取り戻すことができた。本件では、RCS H0コリメータ駆動部のノイズ対策について報告する。

被引用回数:22 パーセンタイル:86.72(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We report inelastic neutron scattering studies of the prototypical kagome magnetic metal FeSn. The spectra display well defined spin waves extending up to 120 meV. Above this energy, the spin waves become progressively broadened, reflecting interactions with the Stoner continuum. Using linear spin wave theory, we determine an effective spin Hamiltonian that explains the measured dispersion. This analysis indicates that the Dirac magnon at the K point occurs on the brink of a region where well defined spin waves become unobservable. Our results emphasize the influential role of itinerant carriers on the topological spin excitations of metallic kagome magnets.
