The prototype accelerator is being developed as an engineering validation for the International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF) equipped with an accelerator-driven-type neutron source for developing fusion reactor materials. This prototype accelerator is a deuteron linear accelerator consisting of an injector, an RFQ, a superconducting linac and their auxiliaries. It aims to produce a CW D beam with the energy and current of 9 MeV/125 mA. The injector test was completed at CEA/Saclay in 2012 for producing a CW H beam and a CW D beam with the energy and current of 100 keV/140 mA. After the beam test at CEA/Saclay, the injector was transported to the International Fusion Energy Research Centre (IFERC) located in Rokkasho, Aomori, Japan. In the end of 2013, installation of the injector was started at IFERC for the injector beam test beginning from summer 2014 in order to obtain better beam qualities to be satisfied with the injection and acceleration of the following accelerators. In this paper, some results of the injector beam test performed at CEA/Saclay and the status quo of the installation of the injector at IFERC are presented.

Transverse momentum distributions and yields for $pi^{pm}, K^{pm}, p$ , and in collisions at = 200 and 62.4 GeV at midrapidity are measured by the PHENIX experiment at the RHIC. We present the inverse slope parameter, mean transverse momentum, and yield per unit rapidity at each energy, and compare them to other measurements at different collisions. We also present the scaling properties such as and scaling and discuss the mechanism of the particle production in collisions. The measured spectra are compared to next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations.

Measurements of electrons from the decay of open-heavy-flavor mesons have shown that the yields are suppressed in Au+Au collisions compared to expectations from binary-scaled collisions. Here we extend these studies to two particle correlations where one particle is an electron from the decay of a heavy flavor meson and the other is a charged hadron from either the decay of the heavy meson or from jet fragmentation. These measurements provide more detailed information about the interaction between heavy quarks and the quark-gluon matter. We find the away-side-jet shape and yield to be modified in Au+Au collisions compared to collisions.

Proceedings of 14th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering (ICONE-14) (CD-ROM), 9 Pages, 2006/07

It is necessary to clarify the dismantlement method of 224 double tubes arranging both pressure and calandria tubes concentrically in the reactor as a peculiar problem of Fugen, in the case of phased dismantlement of the reactor. The machine type cutting is desirable, considering the influence on the atmospheres because the double tubes consist of the zirconium alloy and zircalloy material radio activated highly. Besides, Cutting method has long standoff to cut the double tubes at a time for to be short the term of dismantlement. is desirable. Therefore, it was examined to confirm the applicability to the double tubes cutting by abrasive water jet (hereinafter referred to as AWJ) as the machine type cutting method that can take the standoff comparatively longer. As a result, We confirmed for possibility of cutting the double tubes at a time from inside and outside tube, and cutting thick slab by abrasive water jet. Besides, We confirmed for relationship of abrasive supply and cutting velocity, properties of secondly waste.

The dominant issue for the the modification program of JT-60 (JT-60SC) is to demonstrate the steady state reactor relevant plasma operation. Physics design on plasma parameters, operation scenarios, and the plasma control method are investigated for the achievement of high-. Engineering design and the R&D on the superconducting magnet coils, radiation shield, and vacuum vessel are performed. Recent progress in such physics and technology developments is presented.
