) knockout reactions at the Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory, RIKEN. Level schemes were reconstructed using the
coincidence technique, with tentative spin-parity assignments based on the measured inclusive and exclusive cross sections. Comparison with shell-model calculations suggests coexistence of spherical and deformed shapes at low excitation energies in the
Co isotopes.

,
) reaction using a NaI(Tl) array to detect the deexciting prompt
rays. A new transition with an energy of 2227 keV was identified by
and
coincidences. Our shell-model calculations using the Lenzi, Nowacki, Poves, and Sieja interaction produced good candidates for the experimental proton hole states in the observed energy region, and the theoretical cross sections showed good agreement with the experimental values. Although we could not assign all the experimental states to the theoretical ones unambiguously, the results are consistent with a reasonably large Z = 28 shell gap for nickel isotopes in accordance with previous studies.

Times Cited Count:7 Percentile:47.40(Nuclear Science & Technology)In this paper, the recent activities are reported toward demonstration of the long pulse production. As for the improvement of uniform beam current profile, a symmetric magnetic field configuration for the source plasma production, a so-called tent-shaped filter, was found to be effective to improve the uniformity of the beam current profile. A similar configuration is applied to the JT-60 negative ion source whose plasma size is 1220 mm 564 mm. An estimation from trajectory calculations of primary electrons with the symmetric magnetic field configuration showed that the primary electrons were distributed uniformly in a longitudinal direction. As for the temperature control of the plasma grid, a prototype of the grid with cooling/heating by circulating a high-temperature fluorinated fluid has been developed. This grid was found to have a capability to control the temperature with a time constant of 10 s by considering the physical properties of the fluid.

Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:62.31(Physics, Atomic, Molecular & Chemical)Voltage holding tests by using JT-60 negative ion source and small electrodes was carried out because JT-60 negative ion source had a critical problem about low voltage holding capability for long time. As a result, the voltage holding capability is decreased with the increase of area where local electric field is generated, as well as the surface area according to existing scaling low about surface area. Therefore, in order to improve the voltage holding without changing the existing accelerator, the voltage holding test was carried out by extending gap lengths of the negative ion source. In order to improve the voltage holding, beam radiation shield needs to be optimized additionally. As a result, the voltage holding has been improved to 500 kV and stabilized. By using this modified ion source, negative ion beams of 500 keV up to 3A has been successfully produced.

Times Cited Count:6 Percentile:26.47(Instruments & Instrumentation)The JT-60U negative ion source is required to produce 44 A of 500 keV D ion beams for the JT-60SA. So far, acceleration voltage of 450 kV was achieved without beam acceleration and 416 kV with beam acceleration. These are lower than the rated voltage for JT-60SA due to vacuum breakdowns. To examine the cause of vacuum breakdown, the complicated structure of the accelerator was modeled for the calculation of electric field inside the accelerator. At the corners of the grid support flanges, the electric fields are locally concentrated to be 5.2-5.5 kV/mm. This is higher than other parts of the accelerator where the averaged field is around 3 kV/mm. To reduce the concentrated electric field, the support structures were modified to extend the gap lengths between grids. By repeating the high-voltage application of 3 s pulses, the applied voltage was increased. After 15 hours of conditioning, the accelerator sustained its rated value of 500 kV without beam acceleration.

Times Cited Count:36 Percentile:78.63(Instruments & Instrumentation)The negative-ion based NB injectors on JT-60U achieved maximum injection power of 5.8 MW for 0.9 s via a neutralization of 400 keV, 35 A D ion beams produced in two ion sources. Furthermore, D
beams of 3.4 MW were injected for 20 s using two negative ion sources. The pulse length was limited by power load on the acceleration grids. Reducing the grid power load to an allowable level, long pulse injections was achieved for 30 s at 3 MW. For JT-60SA, 500 keV, 22 A, 100 s beams are required. However, the achieved highest beam energy has been limited to 415 keV. To improve the voltage holding capability, the gap extension and the optimization of the structures have been designed in order to mitigate the local electric field. As a result, the voltage holding capability of 500 kV has been demonstrated. Furthermore, 490 kV for 40 s has been sustained without breakdown. The demonstration of the 500 keV beam acceleration is planned in September 2009 using the modified ion source.
