Zero-field muon spin relaxation experiments were conducted on Al-0.06%Mn, Al-0.06%Cr, Al-0.02%Fe, and Al-0.02%Ni alloys (at.%) across the temperature ranging from 5 to 300 K. The temperature-dependent variations of the dipole field widths ($$Delta$$) elucidated four distinct peaks for the prepared alloys. Atomic configurations of the muon trapping sites corresponding to the observed $$Delta$$ peaks below 200 K were meticulously characterized utilizing first-principles calculations for the trapping energies of hydrogen in proximity to a solute and solute-vacancy pair. This comprehensive analysis facilitated the establishment of a linear correlation between the muon $$Delta$$ peak temperature and the hydrogen trapping energy. However, significant deviations from this linear relationship were observed for the fourth $$Delta$$ peaks above 200 K in Al-Mn, Al-Cr, Al-Fe, and Al-Ni alloys. This discrepancy can be interpreted by considering the disparate distribution functions of muon and hydrogen within the tetrahedral site, wherein two of the four Al atoms are substituted by the solute element and vacancy (solute-vacancy pair).

Hydrogen at the mass ppm level causes hydrogen embrittlement in metallic materials, but it is extremely difficult to experimentally elucidate the hydrogen trapping sites. We have taken advantage of the fact that positive muons can act as light isotopes of hydrogen to study the trapping state of hydrogen in matter. Zero-field muon spin relaxation experiments and the density functional theory (DFT) calculations for hydrogen trapping energy are carried out for Al$$_{6}$$Mn. The DFT calculations for hydrogen in Al$$_{6}$$Mn have found four possible trapping sites in which the hydrogen trapping energies are 0.168 (site 1), 0.312 (site 2), 0.364 (site 3), and 0.495 (site 4) in the unit of eV/atom. Temperature variations of the deduced dipole field width ($$Delta$$) indicated step-like changes at temperatures, 94, 193, and 236 K. Considering their site densities, the observed $$Delta$$ change temperatures are interpreted by trapping muons at sites 1, 3, and 4.

An experimental study on tritium (T) transfer in porous concrete for the tertiary T safety containment is performed to investigate (1) how fast HTO penetrates through concrete walls, (2) how well concrete walls contaminated with water-soluble T are decontaminated by a solution-in-water technique, and (3) how well hydrophobic paint coating works as a protecting film against HTO migrating through concrete walls. The epoxy paint coating can work as a HTO diffusion barrier and the PRF value is around 1/10. The silicon paint coating cannot work as the anti-T permeation barrier, because water deteriorates contact between the paint and cement or mortar.
