Among nitrogen compounds, nitric acid is a principal radiolytic compound produced in large quantities. In the high-intensity proton accelerator, such as J-PARC, a very strong radiation environment leads to an abundant production of nitric acid. A quantitative assessment of the damage due to corrosion with nitric acid is essential for machine maintenance and information concerning the formation of nitric acid is a requisite for that. In this work, the G-value for nitric acid production was measured by irradiating atmospheric air with 48MeV-protons. The G-value was obtained to be 1.460.12. The G-value for nitric acid production obtained in this experiment was larger than the estimated value, but very close to the value of 1.5 given by irradiating the air with Co-60-
rays.

This study focuses on the property of radioactive airborne chlorine (Cl and
Cl) and sulfur (
S) formed from Ar gas by irradiation with high-energy neutrons. As a result of the irradiation to a mixture of Ar gas and dry air,
Cl and
Cl existed as non-acidic gas and
S was present as acidic gas. Further, it was found that in the high-energy neutron irradiation to aerosol containing-Ar gas, the higher the amount of radioactive aerosols becomes, the lower that of radioactive acidic gas becomes.

Times Cited Count:7 Percentile:45.30(Chemistry, Analytical)Size distributions of Cl,
Cl,
Br and
Br aerosols generated by irradiations of argon and krypton gases containing di-octyl phthalate (DOP) aerosols with 45MeV and 65MeV quasi-monoenergetic neutrons were measured to study the formation mechanism of radioactive particles in high energy radiation fields. Effects of the size distribution of the radioactive aerosols on the size of added DOP aerosols, the energy of irradiation neutrons and the kinds of nuclides were studied. The observed size distributions of the radioactive particles were explained by attachment of the radioactive atoms generated by the neutron-induced reactions to the DOP aerosols.

Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:22.89(Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear)Formation mechanism and size distribution of radioactive aerosol particles generated in a high-energy neutron field were studied in order to evaluate a particle size parameter for internal dose evaluation in high-energy accelerator facilities. Argon gas containing DOP aerosols was irradiated by a 65MeV quasi-monoenergetic neutron beam of TIARA. The number size distribution of the DOP aerosols and the activity-weighted size distribution of Cl and
Cl aerosols, formed from the (n, 2np) and (n, np) reactions of
Ar, were measured using an electrical low-pressure impactor. The activity-weighted size distribution of the radioactive aerosols was well explained by the simple attachment model of the radioactive atoms to the DOP aerosols.
