The NiNb and NiTa lattice structures transform from the ordered structures (orthorhombic and monoclinic structures for NiNb and NiTa, respectively) to the amorphous state by the Au, Ni, Al and Xe ion irradiations. Irrespective of such heavy ion species or energies, the lattice structure transformation to the amorphous state almost correlate with the density of energy deposited through elastic collisions.

At J-PARC, 3 GeV proton beam with power of 1MW is delivered to the spallation neutron source (JSNS) through beam transport line called 3NBT. At the high power accelerator facilities even a small abnormal event has a possibility to be critical so that the beam control system is crucial. In order to find tiny anomaly, rapid data analysis system is required. We developed control and data analysis system based on the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) and Control System Studio (CSS). To carry out beam tuning efficiently, the beam control system based on the Strategic Accelerator Design (SAD) code has been developed. With the several shots of beam and by the one click of operational panel of the screen, required magnet field can be calculated and set automatically. Also we developed automated e-mail system to announce the abnormal event to the experts persons. With these systems, we can reduce both beam tuning time and down time.

Times Cited Count:9 Percentile:37.98(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)One of the reasons of a beam loss in a high power accelerator is leakage magnetic field from a magnet at a close beam line, which distorts the beam orbit and makes the beam hit the wall of the beam pipe. The most effective way to shield such leakage field is to cover the beam by the magnetic materials at the nearest space. This means that vacuum chambers should be made of the magnetic materials. We selected the permalloy, which has very high magnetic permeability for such a magnetic material. However, there is not proven evidence of the vacuum chambers, which are made of magnetic materials. We have developed a vacuum chamber of such new material with the object of vacuum and magnetic characteristics.

In the vacuum system of J-PARC Rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS), we use beam pipes and bellows whose materials are vacuum fired at 700850 C in order to eliminate atoms in their bulk who are origin of outgassing. Until now, beam power has been increased up to 300 kW. Pressure in synchrotron beam line increased when the high power beam was accelerated. However, increment of pressure has reduced during the continuous beam operation. It is because the molecules, which adsorb on surface of the wall of the vacuum chambers, desorb by an ion bombardment and a heat generation due to an eddy current. Because the atoms in the bulk is eliminated, desorption of the molecules, which adsorb on the surface, means the reduction of the outgassing from the wall. In this presentation, we will report the past situation of the vacuum system during the beam operation. In addition, we also show the status after the Great East Japan Earthquake.

It is usually difficult to reduce outgassing of a large structure inside a vacuum chamber by baking the whole chamber, which causes the large extension of the chamber and needs a lot of heater power. The solution is to rise the temperature of structure object without heating the vacuum chamber. This means to install heat source inside the chamber and increase the heat quantity to the object by inserting the heat shield between the object and the chamber. In the particle accelerator field, there are a lot of such requirements for reducing outgassing of structures inside vacuum chambers. One example is a kicker magnet, which is installed in a vacuum chamber and consists mainly of ferrite cores and aluminum electric plates. We applied the above method to the outgassing reduction of the kicker. In this article, we show outline of this in-situ bake-out method, the effects of the heat shield on the heat quantity and the result of the outgassing reduction.

The Advanced Volume Reduction Facilities (AVRF) is constructed to manufacture the waste packages of radioactive waste for disposal in the Nuclear Science Research Institute of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency. The AVRF is constituted from two facilities. The one is the Waste Size Reduction and Storage Facility (WSRSF) which is for reducing waste size, sorting into each material and storing the waste package. The other is the Waste Volume Reduction Facility (WVRF) which is for manufacturing the waste package by volume reducing treatment and stabilizing treatment. WVRF has an induction melting furnace, a plasma melting furnace, an incinerator, and a super compactor for treatment. In this report, we summarized about the basic concept of constructing AVRF, the constitution of facilities, the specifications of machineries and the state of trial operation until March of 2006.

Times Cited Count:65 Percentile:96.73(Nuclear Science & Technology)Air-water two-phase flow in helicallly coiled tube of 20mm in the internal diameter is investigated ezperimentally to elucidate the effect of centrifugal acceleration on the flow regime map and the local instantaneous flow structure. Three kinds of test tubes including a straight tube are used to compare the flow structure under turbulent flow condition. The superficial velocity up to 6 m/s is tested so that centrifugal Froude number covers a range from 0 to 3. The inter facial structure is visualized from two directions by a high-speed video system with a synchronized measurement of local pressure fluctuation. The results reveral that the flow transition line alters due to centrifugal force acting on liquid phase in the tube. Especially the bubbly fow regime is narrwed significantly. The pressure fluctuation amplitude gets large relatively to the average presure loww as void fraction increases. The Frequency spectra of the pressure fluctuation have plural peaks in the case of strong curvature, implying that the periodicity of slugging two-phase flow is collapsed by internal secondary flow actibated inside liquid phase. Moreover, the substantial velocity of gas phase is slower than the total superficial velocity in case of large Froude number because of biased distribution to the inner surface allowing liquid flow passing outside as like a radial stratified flow.

The new visibility method of measurement was developed for gas-entrainment from liquid surface. The vortex is generated unsteadily and it exists less than 0.3. Dynamic PIV is carried out for this short time phenomenon using pulse laser and high-speed camera. In this study, the distribution of downward velocities and the value of circulation are obtained with high accuracy using galvano-mirror.
