国際原子力機関(IAEA)が中心となり、各国の研究者の協力のもと、核融合研究開発のための国際核データライブラリFENDLの更新を行った。最新ライブラリ(FENDL-3.2b)の構築にあたっては、主に米国のENDF、欧州のJEFF、日本のJENDLの相互比較を行い、積分検証結果も踏まえつつ、現状で最も妥当と考えられるデータを個々の核種毎に採用した。従来のライブラリとの大きな違いは、加速器中性子源やそれを用いる材料研究分野からのニーズに応えるためにこれまでのエネルギー上限を20MeVから最大200MeVに拡張し、中性子データのみならず陽子や重陽子データの収録も新規に行なったことである。また、本ライブラリの品質を検証することを目的として、中性子輸送計算や核発熱シミュレーション等を通じた種々のベンチーマーク解析を実施した。それにより、従来のライブラリに比べ実用性が大きく向上していることを示した。

被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Over the past century, understanding the nature of shock compression of condensed matter has been a major topic. About 20 years ago, a femtosecond laser emerged as a new shock-driver. Unlike conventional shock waves, a femtosecond laser driven shock wave creates unique microstructures in materials. Therefore, the properties of this shock wave may be different from those of conventional shock waves. However, the lattice behaviour under femtosecond laser-driven shock compression has never been elucidated. Here we report the ultrafast lattice behaviour in iron shocked by direct irradiation of a femtosecond laser pulse, diagnosed using X-ray free electron laser diffraction. We found that the initial compression state caused by the femtosecond laser driven shock wave is the same as that caused by conventional shock waves. We also found, for the first time experimentally, the temporal deviation of peaks of stress and strain waves predicted theoretically. Furthermore, the existence of a plastic wave peak between the stress and strain wave peaks is a new finding that has not been predicted even theoretically. Our findings will open up new avenues for designing novel materials that combine strength and toughness in a trade-off relationship.

被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.02(Physics, Nuclear)For the first time, differential cross sections and photon beam asymmetries were measured for the reaction by using a linearly polarized photon beam up to 2.4 GeV and a liquid hydrogen target. The (980) photoproduction signal was clearly observed owing to the absence of contributions from vector-meson photoproduction. The results indicate the -channel exchange of vector mesons as a mechanism of the (980) photoproduction at approximate to 2.1 GeV, putting constraints on the nature of (980).

被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.01(Physics, Multidisciplinary)atomic X-ray spectroscopy is one of the most useful methods for investigation of the -nucleus strong interaction. Since the X-ray energy is shifted and/or broadened due to the -nucleus strong interaction compared to those calculated from electromagnetic interaction alone, the measurement of the energy shift, E, and the width, , give us information on the -nucleus potential. A serious problem in the measurement is the significant background derived from in-flight decay. A novel method of identifying stopped events using the nuclear emulsion was developed to realize the first atomic X-ray spectroscopy experiment as the J-PARC E07 experiment, which also aimed at searching for and hypernuclei in the emulsion. The X-rays emitted from Br and Ag atoms were measured using germanium detectors. No clear peaks were observed in the obtained spectra. However, we succeeded in reducing the background to 1/170 by this method employing coincidence measurements using nuclear emulsion and X-ray detectors.

The nuclei of interest were produced in nuclear reactions induced by radioactive Kr and Rb beams, prduced via in-flight fission of U, impinging onto the liquid hydrogen target MINOS. The main reactions occurring were (p,pn), (p,p') and (p,2p). The isotopes of interest were separated in the fragment separator BigRIPS, and their rays detected using the DALI2 -ray spectrometer. The Kr provide insights onto the sudden onset of deformation occurring in Zr and Mo isotopes at =60, which is also associated with shape coexistence. In this experiment the level scheme of these isotopes could be extended, and new yrast and non-yrast states were identified. The results were compared with predictions of the "beyond-mean-field" model and the IBM model, and indications of prolate-oblate shape coexistence at =60 in the Kr isotopes was found.

被引用回数:3 パーセンタイル:48.5(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Hydrogen is involved in various important chemical processes on metal-oxide surfaces. Due to its electron-donating character, hydrogen tends to form polaronic states, where the electron is spatially separated from the proton, which exerts significant impact on the electronic properties of metal-oxide surfaces. By individually probing the proton with nuclear reaction analysis and the electron with ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and in combination with density functional theory calculations, we clarify the electronic state of hydrogen on the anatase TiO(101) surface. Hydrogen is found to adsorb with a saturation coverage of 0.480.12 monolayers, donating an excess electron to the substrate without forming a midgap state, which is in contrast to the behavior of oxygen vacancies.

被引用回数:10 パーセンタイル:65.5(Astronomy & Astrophysics)We present the measurement of the first to fourth order moments of the four-momentum transfer squared, , of inclusive decays using the full Belle data set of 711 of integrated luminosity at the resonance where . The determination of these moments and their systematic uncertainties open new pathways to determine the absolute value of the CKM matrix element using a reduced set of matrix elements of the heavy quark expansion. In order to identify and reconstruct the system, we reconstruct one of the two -mesons using machine learning techniques in fully hadronic decay modes. The moments are measured with progressively increasing threshold selections on starting with a lower value of 3.0 in steps of 0.5 up to a value of 10.0 . The measured moments are further unfolded, correcting for reconstruction and selection effects as well as QED final state radiation. We report the moments separately for electron and muon final states and observe no lepton flavor universality violating effects.

被引用回数:1 パーセンタイル:18.91(Physics, Nuclear)A new -decaying state in Bi has been identified at the ISOLDE Decay Station at the CERN-ISOLDE facility. A preferred assignment was suggested for this state based on the -decay feeding pattern to levels in Po and shell-model calculations. The half-life of the state was deduced to be min. The deexcitation of the levels populated in Po by the decay of this state was investigated via coincidences and a number of new levels and transitions were identified. Shell-model calculations for excited states in Bi and Po were performed using two different effective interactions: the H208 and the modified Kuo-Herling particle interaction. Both calculations agree on the interpretation of the new -decaying state as an isomer and allow for the tentative assignment of shell-model states to several high-spin states in Po.

被引用回数:5 パーセンタイル:65.12(Astronomy & Astrophysics)The mirror nuclei P and S, produced via the Ne+C reaction at 33 MeV, were studied at Legnaro Laboratory using the EUCLIDES Si array coupled with the GASP Ge array. The observed B(E1) strengths of mirror E1 transitions, provide strong evidence for breaking of isospin symmetry in the A=31 mass region. The new finding are supported and explained by state-of-the-art beyond-mean-field calculations including 2- and 3-body forces. According to these findings, the breaking of isospin symmetry originate from violation of charge symmetry in the 2- and 3-body parts of the Coulomb potential.

The corresponding ratio / is 1.03 0.05 0.07, which is consistent with the expectation of lepton flavor universality. The first measured asymmetry parameter is found to be consistent with zero. The first and the second uncertainties above are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise due to the uncertainty of the branching fraction.

被引用回数:10 パーセンタイル:65.5(Astronomy & Astrophysics)We present measurements of partial branching fractions of inclusive semileptonic decays using the full Belle data set of 711 fb of integrated luminosity at the resonance and for . Inclusive semileptonic decays are CKM suppressed and measurements are complicated by the large background from CKM-favored transitions, which have a similar signature. Using machine learning techniques, we reduce this and other backgrounds effectively, whilst retaining access to a large fraction of the phase space and high signal efficiency. We measure partial branching fractions in three phase-space regions covering about to of the accessible phase space. The most inclusive measurement corresponds to the phase space with lepton energies of GeV, and we obtain from a two-dimensional fit of the hadronic mass spectrum and the four-momentum-transfer squared distribution, with the uncertainties denoting the statistical and systematic error. We find from an average of four calculations for the partial decay rate with the third uncertainty denoting the average theory error. This value is higher but compatible with the determination from exclusive semileptonic decays within 1.3 standard deviations.

The angular distributions strongly favor the spin over or , under an assumption that the lowest partial wave dominates in the decay. We also measure the ratio of decay branching fractions / =1.67 , where the last uncertainty is due to possible isospin-symmetry-breaking effects. This value favors the spin-parity with the spin of the light-quark degrees of freedom . This is the first determination of the spin and parity of a charmed-strange baryon.
