Almost ten years have passed since Fukushima nuclear accident. Our experience should be used to improve current emergency protective measures and preparedness. A review of the protective measures implemented in the aftermath of Fukushima nuclear accident has revealed problems such as paternalistic intervention for inhabitants and increased health risks due to the evacuation of vulnerable groups. The risk trade-offs in environmental recovery actions are more complex and ongoing; the stakeholders are the next generation and residents outside of the prefecture. Since one of the characteristics of nuclear disasters is the distance and time dependency of the risk, countless individual cases need to be addressed. While generalization of protective measures is essential, the appropriate deployment of personnel in a variety of roles may require to really address individual cases. To improve nuclear emergency preparedness in the future, it is necessary to incorporate both a top-down approach and a bottom-up approach in a well-balanced manner.

Times Cited Count:428 Percentile:99.68(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Refrigeration is of vital importance for modern society for example, for food storage and air conditioning- and 25 to 30% of the world's electricity is consumed for refrigeration. Current refrigeration technology mostly involves the conventional vapour compression cycle, but the materials used in this technology are of growing environmental concern because of their large global warming potential. As a promising alternative, refrigeration technologies based on solid-state caloric effects have been attracting attention in recent decades. However, their application is restricted by the limited performance of current caloric materials, owing to small isothermal entropy changes and large driving magnetic fields. Here we report colossal barocaloric effects (CBCEs) (barocaloric effects are cooling effects of pressure-induced phase transitions) in a class of disordered solids called plastic crystals. The obtained entropy changes in a representative plastic crystal, neopentylglycol, are about 389 joules per kilogram per kelvin near room temperature. Pressure-dependent neutron scattering measurements reveal that CBCEs in plastic crystals can be attributed to the combination of extensive molecular orientational disorder, giant compressibility and highly anharmonic lattice dynamics of these materials. Our study establishes the microscopic mechanism of CBCEs in plastic crystals and paves the way to next-generation solid-state refrigeration technologies.

While most of the reported Perovskite-type complex anionic acid fluorides have a cubic crystal structure, AgTiO
F has a tetragonal structure and the anion octahedron is tilted in anti-phase. In order to clarify why these differences arise, we investigated the average structure, local structure, polarity, and their interrelationships, and clarified the origin of the polarity. Optical second harmonic (SHG) measurements were performed, and the SHG signal was observed at room temperature, suggesting the possibility of polarity. In addition, the corresponding phase transition was observed by high-temperature X-ray diffraction measurements. From these results, it is necessary to analyze the local structure using a structural model with microscopic polarization.

NiSe
undergoes a structural phase transition from orthorhombic to monoclinic at Tc~330K and simultaneously becomes an insulator, which attracts attention as one of candidate materials for exciton insulators, and has been actively studied. We have previously demonstrated that element substitution can suppress Tc and cause the system to become metallic. In this study, we aimed to clarify the origin of the change in electronic state due to element substitution by crystal structure analysis, and we performed powder X-ray diffraction experiments on element-substituted Ta
NiSe
at BL02 of SPring-8, and we will report the results.

Nanoparticle coating is a very effective method for preventing dust adhesion and is expected to be used in the various applications. However, nanoparticle coatings have been applied to inorganic materials such as glass and metals, and there have been no successful cases on resin substrate surfaces. In this study, silica nanoparticles were successfully coated by pre-adsorbed cationic polyelectrolytes on the resin substrate surface.
