Positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) measurements by use of a positron source of 
Na were performed for polycrystalline ITER-grade tungsten samples exposed to low-energy deuterium plasma. The energy of deuterium plasma was low and then it was expected that it would affect just near-surface region. However, we obtained the longer mean positron annihilation lifetime in the tungsten samples exposed to the low-energy deuterium plasma than the virgin tungsten samples. Moreover, almost same longer values were obtained even on the other (no exposed) side of the samples, although the thickness of the samples were about 2 mm. Although, there has been no report of observation of defect formation by existence of hydrogen or deuterium in tungsten, the results indicated that deuterium existence in tungsten can be one of reasons of defects formation.

Understanding radiation field is important to predict radiation dose rate in newly constructing buildings in an area widely contaminated by radioactive nuclei. Radiation dose rate at the site is not sufficient, and directional spectra of the radiations are important to consider the shielding effect of the building. Radiation directional spectra can be measured by scintillator partially shielded by lead collimators but the angle of view highly depends on the combination of the scintillator and the collimators. We adopts a method to measure the directional spectra by adopting 3 inch scintillator with placing a plate of lead collimator in front of the scintillator and subtract the values from the spectra measured without lead collimator. We simulates the optimal size of the lead collimator and found that the 15 cm diameter plate placing at 3 cm from the scintillator is the best for our purpose, 90 degree angle of view.

Understanding radiation field is important to predict radiation dose rate in newly constructing buildings in an area widely contaminated by radioactive nuclei. Directional spectra of the radiations are important to consider the shielding effect of the building. We adopts a method to measure the directional spectra by adopting a plate of lead collimator in front of the scintillator and subtract the values from the spectra measured without lead collimator. We investigated a possible weight saving detection system having sufficient detection efficiency. The investigation was carried out for the condition of the collimator radius (
= 10, 15, 20 cm) and the distance between collimator and detector (
= 1, 3, 5 cm). We found that three combinations satisfied the 90
field view and the detection efficiency became better with larger collimator radius. On the other hand, larger collimator radius indicate heavier detection system. Therefore, we developed an optimum detection system for field survey with the 15 cm diameter plate (10kg), the scintillator (3.4kg), and the folder (1.0kg).
