被引用回数：2 パーセンタイル：94.02(Instruments & Instrumentation)JSNS investigates short-baseline neutrino oscillations using a 24-meter baseline and a 17-tonne Gd-loaded liquid scintillator target. Accurate event-reconstruction algorithms are crucial for analyzing experimental data. The algorithms undergo meticulous validation through calibration with a Cf source. This paper outlines the methodology and evaluates the reconstruction performance, focusing on neutrino interactions up to approximately 50 MeV for sterile neutrino searches. Both Cf and Michel electron events are studied to evaluate reconstruction accuracy. The analysis concludes that the uncertainty of the fiducial volume, with an appropriate correction, is much less than the requirement of JSNS requirement (10%). Furthermore, the energy resolution is measured to be 3.3 
0.1% for the Michel electron endpoint and 4.3 0.1% for the n-Gd peak in the central region.

被引用回数：0We present the first measurement of the missing energy due to nuclear effects in monoenergetic, muon neutrino charged-current interactions on carbon, originating from 
decay at rest (
), performed with the J-PARC Sterile Neutrino Search at the J-PARC Spallation Neutron Source liquid scintillator based experiment. Toward characterizing the neutrino interaction, ostensibly 
or 
C 
N, we define the missing energy as the energy transferred to the nucleus (
) minus the kinetic energy of the outgoing proton(s), 
, and relate this to visible energy in the detector, ![$$E_m = E_{nu_{mu}} (235.5 MeV) - m_{mu}(105.7 MeV) + [m_n - m_p(1.3 MeV)] - E_{vis}$$](/search/images/ERCV41JAHUQEKX11LRXHKX11LRWXK5L3EAUDEMZVFY0SATLFKYUSALJANVPXWXDNOV4SQMJQGUXDOICNMVLCSIBLEBNW0X1OEAWSA1K5OAUDCLRTEBGWKVRJLUQC0ICFL33XM0LTPUSA.gif)
. The missing energy, which is naively expected to be zero in the absence of nuclear effects (e.g., nucleon separation energy, Fermi momenta, and final-state interactions), is uniquely sensitive to many aspects of the interaction, and has previously been inaccessible with neutrinos. The shape-only, differential cross section measurement reported, based on a 
pure double-coincidence kaon decay-at-rest signal (621 total events), provides detailed insight into neutrino-nucleus interactions, allowing even the nuclear orbital shell of the struck nucleon to be inferred. The measurement provides an important benchmark for models and event generators at hundreds of MeV neutrino energies, characterized by the difficult-to-model transition region between neutrino-nucleus and neutrino-nucleon scattering, and relevant for applications in nuclear physics, neutrino oscillation measurements, and Type-II supernova studies.

被引用回数：1 パーセンタイル：25.62(Chemistry, Analytical)Radioactive aqueous and organic liquid wastes contaminated by U are generated by solvent extraction of nuclear fuel materials in experiments of reprocessing technologies. Although incineration and denitrification/conversion processes are promising for treating such liquid waste, the installation of large equipment is essential. To give appropriate treatment procedures for radioactive liquid waste generated in nuclear facilities, STRAD (Systematic Treatments of RAdioactive liquid wastes for Decommissioning) project was started by Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) with several organizations. We are focusing on baker's yeasts for their excellent metal ions adsorption characteristics, easy handling and low prices. In order to optimize adsorption performance and operation procedures as the liquid waste treatment technology, adsorption performance of U has to be precisely investigated. In this study, adsorption performance of U and anion from nitric acid solution was investigated by batch-wise adsorption experiments.

JAEA has been working on development of extraction chromatography technology for recovery of trivalent minor actinides (MA(III)) from high-level radioactive waste generated in reprocessing of spent fuel. The technology utilizes porous silica particles with about 50 micrometre diameter for support of adsorbents. Pressure drop of the packed column depends on characteristics of the particle. Large pressure drop of the column is not favorable for safety assessment of the technology although a certain level of the pressure drop is indispensable for excellent separation performance. In this study, we applied a granulation technique using a spray dryer that is widely used in industry, and conducted experiments to find the optimal specifications for silica support particles and conditions for the granulation operation. A basic characterization of the adsorbent prepared from the produced particles was carried out by an adsorption test of simulated high level liquid waste.

JAEA initiated the HTTR heat application test project coupling a hydrogen production facility to the HTTR (high temperature engineering test reactor). The project aims to establish "coupling technologies" between HTGR and hydrogen production achieving large-scale, stable and economically competitive carbon-free hydrogen production using the HTGR heat. Important considerations towards establishment of coupling technologies are development of system technologies for HTGR hydrogen production systems and components required for coupling between two facilities. This paper explains a system concept of the HTTR heat application system which can maintain safe and stable operation of the HTTR against temperature transients induced by abnormal events in a hydrogen production plant with the results of operational scheme as well as heat and mass balance of the system. Development plans for hot gas duct, high temperature isolation valves and helium gas circulators are also presented.

被引用回数：1 パーセンタイル：26.66(Instruments & Instrumentation)Spent PUREX solvent, which mainly consists of tributyl phosphate (TBP) and normal dodecane, is generated by solvent extraction of Plutonium and Uranium in the spent nuclear fuel reprocessing. One of the treatment options for storage of the spent solvent is adsorption of the liquid into vermiculite. The organic liquid is considered to be trapped between layers of the vermiculite. Our previous experiments on the adsorption of spent solvent into the vermiculite have shown that some parts of loaded solvent gradually leaked out from the vermiculite. In order to investigate the adsorption mechanism and capacity, elution behavior of the loaded solvent into organic diluents were evaluated. A part of the loaded solvent was easily leaked into the diluent, while some solvent remained inside the particle even after the leaching test. In this study, the adsorption capacity of the vermiculite was evaluated through amount of remaining solvent after washing with diluents. The amount of the remaining solvent was analyzed by Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) on P contained in TBP. Peak intensity of P-K
line depended on the washing condition, and the behavior of the amount of change in adsorbed P atom qualitatively agreed with the results of the leaching test.

The technology utilizes porous silica particles with about 50 micrometre diameter for support of adsorbents. The particles are coated by styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer, and an extractant for MA recovery is impregnated into the polymer. Pressure drop of the packed column depends on characteristics of the particle (diameter, uniformity and pore size). Large pressure drop of the column is not favorable for safety assessment of the technology although a certain level of the pressure drop is indispensable for excellent separation performance. In this study, spray drying granulation experiments and fundamental characterization of the product particle were carried out to find optimal specs of the particle and conditions of the granulation operation.

被引用回数：33 パーセンタイル：83.95(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The ferroaxial order, which is characterized by a rotational structural distortion in a crystal, has been recently proposed as one of ferroic orders. Though the domain formation is a characteristic feature in ferroic materials, there has been little study done concerning that for the ferroaxial order. Here, we investigate ferroaxial domains that are formed through a ferroaxial transition in two representative ferroaxial materials, NiTiO and RbFe(MoO
)
. We spatially resolve their domain structures using an optical method based on electric-field- induced optical rotation, that is, electrogyration (EG). In NiTiO, multi-domains are constructed when crystals undergo a ferroaxial transition and the domain size depends on the cooling rate around the transition temperature. Furthermore, the ferroaxial domain structure obtained by the EG measurement is well matched with that by scanning X-ray diffraction (XRD). RbFe(MoO) also exhibits multi-domain states in which domain patterns are different each time a crystal undergoes a ferroaxial transition. In addition, the temperature dependence of the EG signal well obeys that of the order parameter of a first-order phase transition. These results ensure the effectiveness of the EG effect to elucidate the nature of ferroaxial order.
