Recently, it has been reported that anomalous improvement in the thermal conductivity of nanofluid composed of base liquids and dispersed solid nanoparticles, compared to the theoretically predicted value calculated from the particle fraction. Generally, the thermal conductivity values of gases and liquids are dominated by the mean free path of the molecules during translational motion. Herein, we present solid evidence showing the possible contribution of the vibrational behavior of liquid molecules around nanoparticles to increasing these thermal conductivities.

At the J-PARC Main Ring (MR), there have been various investigation carried out at the moment aiming at the beam operation of MW order. As one of the investigations, a study of the Rapid-Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) magnets was implemented. Increase of the extraction energy of RCS was needed to reduce beam loss, as beam loss in the MR injection region was large under influence of Space Charge effect at the injection beam of 3GeV. Therefore conceptual design of the extraction energy upgrade using dipole and quadrupole magnets of RCS was performed. In this paper, we will report the contents of the study in extraction energy upgrade of RCS magnets and problems which became clear as a result.

The J-PARC 3-50BT line is the beam transport line from 3-GeV rapid-cycling synchrotron (RCS) to 50-GeV main ring (MR). The RCS is the high-intensity proton accelerator, where designed beam power is 1 MW, and has the complex source of space charge effect, etc. Therefore, the uncontrolled emittance growth and beam halo increase nonlinearly with the increasing the beam power. Additionally, the physical aperture of MR with 81 $$pi$$ mm mrad is smaller than that of RCS with 486 $$pi$$ mm mrad. Therefore, the 3-50BT line has the collimators in order to remove the tail or halo of the extracted beam from the RCS. The designed collimator aperture is 54 $$pi$$ mm mrad. It is required to measure and optimize the optics parameters in the collimator area for taking full advantage of the beam collimation. Especially, it is very important to make the dispersion functions free in the collimator area and optimize the beta function. This paper will introduce the method of optics measurement and report the result of the measurement and optimization based on the simulation.

Recently, a heavy-ion program as a future J-PARC project has been discussed. The main goals of the program are to explore the QCD phase diagram at highbaryon density with heavy ions up to uranium at the beam energies of around 10A GeV. We are planning to focus on the electron and muon measurements and rare probe search such asmulti-strangeness and charmed hadrons with high beam rates at J-PARC. A heavy-ionacceleration scheme has been considered with a new heavy-ion linac and a new booster ring, with the existing 3-GeV Rapid-Cycling Synchrotron, and the 30-GeV Main Ring synchrotron. An overview of the heavy-ion program and accelerator design, as well as physics goals and conceptual design of the experiments are presented.

J-PARC 3-GeV RCS has started the beam commissioning since Oct. 2007. In the beam commissioning, the beam tuning for basic parameters and high-intensity operation has been continuously performed. This presentation will describe the results of the beam-loss reduction and minimization for high-intensity operation.

The RCS beam power ramp-up has well proceeded since the start-up of user program in December 2008. So far the RCS has successfully achieved high intensity beam trials up to 420 kW at a low-level intensity loss of less than 1%, and the output beam power for the routine user program has been increased to 210 kW to date. Recently our effort has also been made to improve the quality of the extraction beam, namely to realize low-halo high-power beams. In this paper, recent effort for beam halo reduction in the RCS will be presented.

The J-PARC 3-GeV RCS is a high-power pulsed proton driver aiming at 1 MW output beam power. The RCS was beam commissioned in October 2007 and made available for user operation in December 2008 with an output beam power of 4 kW. Since then, the output beam power of the RCS has been steadily increasing as per progressions of beam tuning and hardware improvements. So far, the RCS has successfully achieved high-intensity beam trials of up to 420 kW at a low-level intensity loss of less than 1%, and the output beam power for the routine user program has been increased to 210 kW. The most important issues in increasing the output beam power are the control and minimization of beam loss to maintain machine activation within the permissible level. This paper presents the recent progress in the RCS beam power ramp-up scenario, with particular emphasis on our efforts for beam loss issues.

Authors proposed a new route to produce $$^{99}$$Mo by the $$^{100}$$Mo($$n$$,2$$n$$)$$^{99}$$Mo reaction, which has some characteristic features. Such as the reaction cross section is large, about 1.5 barn at 12 $$<$$ $$E$$$$_{rm n}$$ $$<$$ 17 MeV, which is 10 times larger than the thermal-neutron capture cross section of $$^{98}$$Mo. Second, the cross sections of the ($$n$$,$$alpha$$), ($$n$$,$$np$$), and ($$n$$,$$p$$) reactions are less than a few mb at $$E$$$$_{rm n}$$ = 14 MeV. Third, a large amount of $$^{100}$$Mo target materials can be used, compared to that for proton beam irradiation on $$^{100}$$Mo. Fourth, intense neutrons with energy of 12-17 MeV are already available. In the present work we have measured all $$gamma$$-rays emitted from activities produced by bombarding a natural Mo target with neutrons from the D($$^3$$H,$$n$$)$$^4$$He reaction at Fusion Neutronics Source Facility (FNS) at Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) to study characteristic features mentioned above more in detail. The neutron flux was about 10$$^{12}$$n/cm$$^2$$s. The experimental results at FNS will be discussed in the conference.

$$^{rm 99m}$$Tc is the most important radioisotope used as nuclear medicine which is mostly produced by using only five nuclear reactors. Recently, two of the present authors proposed a new route to produce $$^{99}$$Mo by the $$^{100}$$Mo(n,2n)$$^{99}$$Mo reaction, which has the following characteristic features. (1) First, the reaction cross section is large. Second, the cross sections of the (n,$$alpha$$), (n,np), and (n,p) reactions are less than a few mb at En = 14 MeV. Third, a large amount of $$^{100}$$Mo target materials can be used, compared to that for proton beam irradiation on $$^{100}$$Mo. In the present work we have measured all $$gamma$$-rays emitted from activities produced by bombarding a natural Mo target with neutrons from the D($$^{3}$$H,n)$$^{4}$$He reaction at FNS at Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) to study characteristic features mentioned above more in detail. The experimental results at FNS will be discussed in the conference.
