Review of neutron cross-section evaluations for fission products included in 5 major evaluated nuclear-data libralies was performed. The aim of the project, conducted under the WPEC Subgroup 21 during 2001-2004, was to prepare recommendations for best evaluations of nuclei in the range Z=1-68. Altogether, existing evaluations for 211 materials were reviewd, 7 new materials were added, and recommendations were prepared for 218 materials.

Chronological and geochemical studies of calcium carbonates can provide precious information for changes in geochemical condition in deep geological environments. Because the carbonate can be found as common filling minerals in rocks, age zoning and spatial distribution of chemical composition in the carbonate could be a wide-use indicator to reconstruct the past environmental changes. Calcite and other carbonate materials have been dated by Isotope Dilution-Thermal Ionization Mass Spectrometry. On the other hand, a few of U-Pb dating studies in a micro scale area (less than 10 micrometer) such as using laser ablation-multiple collector-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-MC-ICPMS) has been conducted on the carbonate. The U-Pb dating technique for the carbonates using LA-MC-ICPMS is still immature partly because of a lack of consensus international carbonate reference materials for the in-situ dating technique. In order to solve this problem, we performed a survey on the carbonate reference materials that may be suitable for high precision U-Pb dating using LA-MC-ICPMS. Additionally, we conducted experiments to make compositionally homogeneous carbonate (calcite) reference materials.

Chronological and geochemical studies of carbonates, which are commonly found as fracture filling minerals in rocks, can provide information about geochemical conditions present during formation including in deep subsurface environments. A dating technique for the carbonates using laser ablation-multiple collector-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-MC-ICPMS) is still immature partly because of a lack of a consensus international carbonate standard for the in-situ dating technique. In this study, we performed a survey on the carbonate standard materials that may be suitable for high precision U-Th-Pb dating using LA-MC-ICPMS. We examined carbonate standard materials JCp-1 and JCt-1 issued by the Geological Survey of Japan (GSJ). Based on solution-based bulk analysis using MC-ICP-MS, heterogeneities in Pb isotope compositions were confirmed. Nevertheless, the 206Pb-based isotopic compositions were all within 1.2 per mill variations acceptable for a standard used for age determination using LA-MC-ICPMS. Additional tests on the heterogenities in U-Th-Pb compositions of the carbonate standards along with determinations of other trace elements using a 2D imaging LA-ICP-MS are ongoing. Examinations on both natural standards and synthetic standards are ongoing for further efforts in determination of the standard suitable for U-Th-Pb dating of carbonates.

The chronological information about carbonates is useful for modeling and enables forecast of geological and geochemical environmental changes by simulating. The U-Th-Pb dating method for carbonates which were formed at reducing environment remain to be established. The final goal of our study is to establish in situ U-Th-Pb dating method for carbonates which are filling cracks in pervious rock like fault rocks. In this study, the U-Th-Pb elemental and isotopic two-dimension distribution for an ammonite fossil were visualized by "Imaging" method using Laser-ablation ICP Mass Spectrometry. In U-Pb isotope analysis for carbonates in cracks of granites, we could not obtain significant U-Pb age data by the lack of uranium and influence of non-radiogenic common lead. When the concentration of lead is sufficiently high for the measurement, we obtained reliable isotopic data from carbonates and their lead isotopic composition reflected characteristic composition of their origin water.

The fracture frequency distribution in granitic plutons depends on lithofacies, which reflect the chemical composition of the original magma. The initial Sr isotopic ratio of the whole rock is a valid indicator to identify the chemical composition of the magma. The apatite Sr isotopic composition probably records a primary Sr isotopic composition of the original magma because Rb is incompatible element for apatite. In this study, we developed a method for in situ Sr isotopic analysis of apatite by LA-ICP-MS. We adopted the technique of introducing desolvated solutions and solid samples into the ICP mass spectrometer. The correction for mass discrimination effects in the solid sample analysis by LA was attempted based on the isotope analysis of the solution. A gas line for mixing N into Ar sample carrier gas was installed to suppress the oxide production rate and improve the ionization efficiency of Sr. Our results of the analysis on the apatite reference materials were consistent with previous studies. In addition, we confirmed that this method can be applied to apatite samples with lower Sr mass fraction than above apatite reference materials and grain sizes of approximately 100
m. The developed method enables the evaluation of differences in the chemical composition of the original magma and then provides the constraint on the relationship between lithofacies and fracture frequency distribution by combination with chemical and geological information of granitic rocks.
