Technetium-99m ($$^{99m}$$Tc) is the most widely used medical radioisotope in the world and is produced from molybdenum-99 ($$^{99}$$Mo). Production of $$^{99}$$Mo via the neutron capture method draws attention as an alternative to fission-derived $$^{99}$$Mo due to non-proliferation issues, but the specific radioactivity of $$^{99}$$Mo is extremely low. In this work, a porous $$alpha$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ wire was prepared as an irradiation target in order to improve the specific activity by extracting $$^{99}$$Mo. Porous $$alpha$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ wire is synthesized from Mo metal wire by a two-step heating procedure. The hot atom effect of $$^{99}$$Mo was confirmed by activity and isotope measurements of the porous $$alpha$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ wire after neutron irradiation and the water used for extraction. In term of the extraction effectiveness, the effectiveness of $$^{99}$$Mo extraction in the porous $$alpha$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ wire was comparable to that of commercial $$alpha$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ powder.

$$beta$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ whiskers in $$^{99}$$Mo/$$^{rm 99m}$$Tc radioisotope production and $$^{99}$$Mo/$$^{rm 99m}$$Tc extraction using hot atoms

Technetium-99m ($$^{rm 99m}$$Tc) is one of the most important radioisotopes for diagnostic radio-imaging applications. $$^{rm 99m}$$Tc is a daughter product of the $$^{99}$$Mo isotope. There are two methods used to produce $$^{99}$$Mo/$$^{rm 99m}$$Tc: the nuclear fission (n,f) and the neutron capture (n,$$gamma$$) methods. Between them, the (n,f) method is the main route, used for approximately 90% of the world's production. However, the (n,f) method faces numerous problems, including the use of highly enriched uranium, the release of highly radioactive waste, and nonproliferation problems. Therefore, the (n,$$gamma$$) method is being developed as a future replacement for the (n,f) method. In this work, $$beta$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ whiskers prepared by the thermal evaporation method and $$alpha$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ particles were irradiated in a nuclear reactor to produce $$^{99}$$Mo/$$^{rm 99m}$$Tc via neutron capture. The irradiated targets were dispersed into water to extract the $$^{99}$$Mo/$$^{rm 99m}$$Tc. As a result, $$beta$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ whisker yielded higher $$^{99}$$Mo extraction rate than that from $$alpha$$-MoO$$_{3}$$. In addition, by comparing the dissolved $$^{98}$$Mo concentrations in water, we clarified a prominent hot-atom of $$beta$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ whiskers. This research is the first demonstration of $$beta$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ being used as an irradiation target in the neutron capture method. On the basis of the results, $$beta$$-MoO$$_{3}$$ is considered a promising irradiation target for producing $$^{99}$$Mo/$$^{rm 99m}$$Tc by neutron capture and using water for the radioisotope extraction process in the future.

A variety of triggering mechanisms and structures of internal transport barrier (ITB) has been observed in various devices or depending on operation scenarios. Thus identity experiments on ITB in JT-60U and JET have been performed to shed light on the physics behind ITBs. Because of their similar size, the dimensionless parameters between both devices are the same. These experiments were performed with near identical magnetic configurations, heating waveforms and normalized quantities such as safety factor, magnetic shear, normalized Larmor radius, normalized collision frequency, beta, temperatures ratio. Similarities of the ITB triggering mechanism and the ITB strength have been observed when a proper match is achieved of the most relevant profiles of the normalized quantities. This paper will report on the detail comparison of transport properties of ITBs obtained in these JET/JT-60U identity experiments.

This paper documents the public release PR08 of the International Tokamak Physics Activity profile database, which should be of particular interest to the magnetic confinement fusion community. Data from a wide variety of interesting discharges from many of the world's leading tokamak experiments are now made available in PR08, which also includes predictive simulations of an initial set of operating scenarios for ITER. In this paper we describe the discharges that have been included and the tools that are available to the reader who is interested in accessing and working with the data.

In Task A of DECOVALEX-THMC, five research teams study the influence of THM coupling on the safety of the near-field of a typical geological repository for high-level radioactive waste. In order to refine the analyses, the teams calibrated their models with laboratory experiments, including: swelling pressure tests, water uptake tests, thermally gradient tests, and the CEA mock-up THM experiment. This paper describes the mathematical models used by the teams, and compares the results of their calibration with the experimental data.

In order to demonstrate the feasibility of geological disposal of spent CANDU fuel in Canada, a safety assessment was performed for a hypothetical repository in the Canadian Shield. The assessment shows that such repository would meet international criteria for dose rate; however, uncertainties in the assumed evolution of the repository were identified. Such uncertainties could be resolved by the consideration of coupled Thermal-Hydro-Mechanical-Chemical (THMC) processes. In Task A of the DECOVALEX-THMC project, THM models will be refined and used to perform near-field simulations of the evolution of the repository in order to address the above uncertainties. This paper presents the definition and rationale of Task A and the preliminary results.
