Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)This study aimed to visualise the distribution of chloride in the corroded crevice of stainless steel and to evaluate the chloride content quantitatively. Crevice corrosion tests were carried out using
Cl
, a radioactive isotope of chloride, as a tracer in NaCl test solutions. After crevice corrosion tests, stainless steel specimens were placed on an imaging plate. The imaging plate was sensitised by
-ray emitted by
Cl
adhering to the crevice. As a result, the chloride distribution in the corroded area inside the crevice was visualised. A calibration curve for the amount of
Cl
was obtained from the relationship between the time of photosensitivity to
-ray emitted by
Cl
and the luminance of the imaging plate. The chloride content in the corroded crevice was quantitatively evaluated based on the calibration curve. These visualisation and quantitative evaluation methods were also applied to tests in which specimens were left in pure water after crevice corrosion tests, and the behaviour of chloride in crevice corrosion was discussed.

The present study proposed a relative evaluation methodology for the demarcation of applicable laws and design standards for the nuclear hydrogen production system and applied it to the HTTR Heat Application Test Facility. The evaluation results showed that a candidate applying the High Pressure Gas Safety Act to the Heat Application Test Facility (hydrogen production plant) and design standards established under the High Pressure Gas Safety Act to the steam reformer did not show the lowest category in any of the metrics, and was proposed as the most superior demarcation option for the HTTR Heat Application Test Facility.

Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:58.26(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We investigate the effect of easy-axis metamagnetic crossover on superconductivity in UTe
along the
-axis through measurements of AC susceptibility, magnetization, and the magnetocaloric effect. In ultra-clean single crystals, we identify a field-induced phase transition within the superconducting state at 5.6 T, driven by metamagnetism. This transition leads to a high-field superconducting state, significantly increasing the upper critical field to 12 T. A sudden increase in entropy at the transition suggests a self-reconstruction of the order parameter, enabling multi-component superconducting states to adapt to external perturbations.

-MnDx and hcp
-MnDx, were investigated by in-situ neutron powder diffraction. Deuterium atoms partially occupied the octahedral interstitial positions of the fcc and hcp metal lattices. The site occupancies increased rapidly with decreasing temperature from
700 to
450 K and remained down to 300 K. N
el temperature of 543(10) K was determined for
-MnD
. For
-MnD
, saturation magnetic moment and N
el temperature were determined to be 0.82(1)
and 347(3) K, respectively. The N
el temperatures determined for
-MnD
and
-MnD
are consistent with those predicted by the respective Slater-Pauling curves proposed in previous studies. The updated N
el temperatures provide insights into the development of more accurate Slater-Pauling curves based on electronic band structure calculations.

Iron reacts with hydrogen to form solid solutions with body-centered cubic, face-centered cubic, hexagonal close packed, and double hexagonal close packed structures at high temperatures and high pressures. Neutron diffraction is the most powerful tool for determining the occupation sites and occupancies of hydrogen atoms dissolved in a metal lattice. Structural parameters, including hydrogen occupation sites and occupancies, are refined via Rietveld analysis for neutron diffraction data. We present our expertise in Rietveld refinement of iron hydrides accumulated over 10 years.
