Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:28.11(Physics, Nuclear)A negative muonium ion (Mu) source using an aluminum foil target was developed as a low-energy muon source. An experiment to produce Mu ions was conducted to evaluate the performance of the Mu ion source. The measured event rate of Mu ions was Mu/s when the event rate of the incident muon beam was /s. The formation probability, defined as the ratio of the Mu ions to the incident muons on the Al target, was . This Mu ion source boosted the development of the muon accelerator, and the practicality of this low-energy muon source obtained using a relatively simple apparatus was demonstrated.

Muon acceleration is an important technique in exploring the new frontier of physics. A new measurement of the muon dipole moments is planned in J-PARC using the muon linear accelerator. The low-energy (LE) muon source using the thin metal foil target and beam diagnostic system were developed for the world's first muon acceleration. Negative muonium ions from the thin metal foil target as the LE muon source was successfully observed. Also the beam profile of the LE positive muon was measured by the LE-dedicated beam profile monitor. The muon acceleration test using a Radio-Frequency Quadrupole linac (RFQ) is being prepared as the first step of the muon accelerator development. In this paper, the latest status of the first muon acceleration test is described.

The experiment of proton generation is performed for developing the laser-driven ion source. We observe proton signals in the laser-plasma interaction by using a thin-foil target. To get higher energy protons the size of the preformed plasma is reduced by changing the laser contrast level. In the high-contrast laser pulse case the maximum energy of the protons generated at rear side of the target increases.

High-intensity laser and thin-foil interactions produce high-energy particles, hard X-ray, high-order harmonics, and terahertz (THz) radiation. A proton beam driven by a high-intensity laser has received attention as a compact ion source for medical applications. In this study we have tested simultaneous generation of protons and THz radiation from a thin-foil target. We use a Ti:sapphire laser system (J-KAREN) at JAEA. A laser beam is focused by an off-axis parabolic mirror at the thin-foil target. We observed the high-energy proton in the rear side of the target and THz radiation in the reflected direction. Next, high energy protons are observed by reducing the size of preformed plasma.

The paper provides a historical account of some of the most relevant proposals, concepts, and studies of international control over technologies and materials in the proliferation sensitive parts of the nuclear fuel cycle. It also focuses on recent proposals which aim to reduce or eliminate the incentive of countries developing sensitive fuel cycle technologies, namely, enrichment and reprocessing. Many of these proposals include the reliable fuel supply and perhaps, spent fuel take-back. The objectives of the cooperative framework are to facilitate member parties to form partnerships for providing nuclear fuel-cycle service needs; to coordinate international safeguards and inspection of fuel-cycle facilities; to assure that member parties would receive the reliable and economically-competitive fuel-cycle services; and to enhance the profile of peaceful use of nuclear power in Asia Pacific.

The demand for peaceful use of nuclear power is remarkably increasing, in particular, in order to ensure global energy security, preventing global warming, whereas, the world concerns about the nuclear security is growing. Accordingly the education on as nuclear technology should involve the policy and technology study on nuclear non-proliferation. In the course of nuclear renaissance, the nuclear education should take into account the interdisciplinary study, not only carrying on the studies on nuclear engineering. The University of Tokyo (UT) brought a concept of nuclear socio engineering during realignment of nuclear-related courses. Education on nuclear non-proliferation has started as the key part of the nuclear socio engineering in cooperation with JAEA. This paper describes its content, function, management and perspectives.

It is essential to review the concept of the safeguards and the nuclear proliferation resistance when next generation nuclear system incorporates those into its designing. This manuscript includes the basic idea, essence of nuclear proliferation resistance and how it effectively works, and finally what designer should consider.

Times Cited Count:7 Percentile:27.78(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)A dependence of cut-off proton kinetic energy on laser prepulse duration has been observed. ASE pedestal duration is controlled by a fast electro-optic pulse slicer where the risetime is estimated to be 130 ps. We demonstrate a new correlated spectral technique for determining this risetime using a stretched, frequency chirped pulse.

KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) has developed the MARK A1 aerial survey system for unmanned aerial vehicles for use in contaminated areas. The MARK A1 system consists of a CZT detector, signal processing unit, and positioning and interface units to a PC on the ground. To validate the effectiveness of the detectors, field tests were conducted in high dose rate environments near the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. The JAEA and KAERI detectors were each mounted on an unmanned helicopter to make measurements at different altitudes. For both systems, the air dose rates obtained from the airborne survey gave results with a similar trend to the air dose rates obtained from the walking survey. Therefore, it is expected that MARK A1 can be used to quickly scan large and highly contaminated areas that are difficult for humans to access in the event of a nuclear accident.
