When treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with high-dose irradiation is often utilized. The fractionation schemes and curative effects can be evaluated by mathematical models for predicting cell survival curve. Such model parameters can be determined from in vitro experiment, but they are empirically determined based on experiences in clinics. As such, there is a large gap between in vitro and clinical study. As such background, translational study between in vitro cell survival and clinical curative effects is necessary. In this study, explicitly considering existence of cancer stem-like cells (CSCs), we developed an all-in-one model for predicting both in vitro cell survival and clinical curative effects (integrated microdosimetric-kinetic (IMK) model) and performed retrospective evaluation of clinical outcomes following SBRT for NSCLC in Hirosaki University Hospital. As a result, the IMK model successfully reproduced both cell survival and the tumor control probability with various fractionation schemes (i.e., 6-10 Gy per fraction). The developed model would contribute on precisely understanding the impact of CSCs on curative effects after SBRT for NSCLC with high precision.

The muon linac project for the precise measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments, which is currently one of the hottest issues of the elementary particle physics, is in progress at J-PARC. The muons from the J-PARC muon facility are once cooled to room temperature, then accelerated up to 212 MeV with a normalized emittance of 1.5 mm mrad and a momentum spread of 0.1%. Four types of accelerating structures are adopted to obtain the efficient acceleration with a wide beta range from 0.01 to 0.94. The project is moving into the construction phase. We already demonstrated the re-acceleration scheme of the decelerated muons using a 324-MHz RFQ in 2017. The high-power test of the 324-MHz Interdigital H-mode (IH) DTL using a prototype cavity was performed in 2021. The fabrication of the first module of 14 modules of the 1296-MHz Disk and Washer (DAW) CCL will be done to confirm the production process. Moreover, the final design of the travelling wave accelerating structure for the high beta region is also proceeding. In this paper, the recent progress toward the realization of the world first muon linac will be presented.

Japan Atomic Energy Agency is planning a High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR) heat application test producing hydrogen with the HTTR which achieved the highest reactor outlet coolant temperature of 950C in the world to realize a massive, cost-effective and carbon-free hydrogen production technology utilizing a high temperature gas cooled reactor (HTGR). In the HTTR heat application test, it is required to establish its safety design for coupling a hydrogen production plant to HTGR through the licensing by the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA). A draft of a safety design philosophy for the HTTR heat application test facility was considered taking into account postulated events due to the plant modification and coupling of the hydrogen production plant based on the HTTR safety design which was authorized through the safety review of the NRA against New Regulatory Requirements. The safety design philosophy was examined to apply proven conventional chemical plant standards to the hydrogen production plant for ensuring public safety against disasters caused by high pressure gases. This report presents a result of a consideration on safety design philosophies regarding the reasonability and condition to apply the High Pressure Gas Safety Act for the hydrogen production plant, safety classifications, seismic design classification, identification of important safety system.
