The reliability of emergency response in severe nuclear accidents critically depends on robust real-time monitoring of radioactive source distributions. However, this safety function is challenged by physical constraints that create monitoring blind spots and by the inadequacy of static methods in tracking dynamic releases. To enhance the reliability and robustness of source term estimation, this study proposes a dynamic reconstruction framework based on LASSO regression with temporal regularization. A sliding-window time-penalty mechanism is introduced, imposing
-norm constraints on inter-step source variations to ensure physical continuity. The contribution matrix and measurement vector are normalized to counteract biases from radiation shielding and time-varying intensities. Validation using a two-room model with internal shielding, with PHITS Monte Carlo simulation, demonstrates accurate reconstruction of dynamic sources from remote measurements. Temporal regularization enhances situational awareness by suppressing spatial aliasing: at sliding-window width
(no regularization), hotspot locations fluctuate significantly, with quantitative mean absolute error fluctuations at around
, whereas
yields improved spatial consistency and the fluctuation quantities decrease to the
range. Comparative analysis identifies
as optimal in balancing accuracy and computational cost. This work establishes a more reliable pathway for dynamic hazard assessment, enabling accurate localization and intensity tracking under challenging conditions. The proposed framework provides a decision-support tool enhancing the resilience and safety of emergency management in nuclear facilities.

B, which had long been considered to have a neutron halo. By analyzing the momentum distributions and exclusive cross sections, we obtained the spectroscopic factors for

orbitals, and a surprisingly small percentage of 9(2)% was determined for

component and the halo features reported in prior experiments can be explained by the deformed relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov theory in continuum, revealing a definite but not dominant neutron halo in
B. The present work gives the smallest

or
orbitals is not a prerequisite for the occurrence of a neutron halo.

Times Cited Count:90 Percentile:98.67(Physics, Nuclear)International comparison of heavy-ion induced reaction models were discussed in the international conference "Transport2017" held in April 2017. Owing to their importance for safety assessment of heavy-ion accelerators and dosimetry of astronauts, various models to simulate heavy-ion induced reaction models are developed. This study is intended to clarify the difference among them to pinpoint their problems. In the comparison study, 320 protons and neutrons were packed in a 20-fm-large cube to calculate the number and energies of collisions during the time evolution. The author contributed to this study by running calculation using JQMD (JAERI Quantum Molecular Dynamics). This study showed that time step in the calculation is one of the biggest causes of the discrepancies. For example, the calculation by JQMD comprises 1-fm/c time steps, each of which is composed of transport, scattering and decay phases. Therefore a sequence of scattering, and decay followed by another scattering in 1 fm/c cannot be considered. Moreover, in JQMD particles are labeled by sequential numbers and scattering reactions are simulated by the order. Therefore scattering between low ID numbers, that between high ID numbers and that between the first (low ID) pair is overlooked in JQMD. Above indications obtained in this study must be kept in our mind for future JQMD upgrades.

Owing to their importance for safety assessment of heavy-ion accelerators and dosimetry of astronauts, various models to simulate heavy-ion induced reaction models are developed. This study is intended to clarify the difference among them to pinpoint their problems. In the comparison study, 320 protons and 320 neutrons were packed in a 20-fm-large cube to calculate the number of particle-particle collisions as well as the energies of collisions during the time evolution. In addition to the calculation, their algorithms were compared. The author contributed to this study by running calculation using JQMD (JAERI Quantum Molecular Dynamics). The results were compared with those calculated by the other 15 codes from over the world. Algorithm comparison showed that JQMD calculates collision probabilities from protons at first and collisions by neutrons are simulated later, which might be unreasonable. On the other hand, it was clarified that the calculation by JQMD agrees with those by the others. Despite the fact that some codes deviate from the average by a factor of 2, JQMD exhibited stable performance.
