At the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), low-emittance muon beams with a linear accelerator (linac) are proposed as a new approach to precisely measure the anomalous magnetic moment and electric dipole moment of the muon. Low-emittance muon beams can also be employed as new probes for non-destructive imaging techniques to see through structures. In the low-velocity section of the muon linac, a radio-frequency quadrupole linac (RFQ) and an interdigital H-mode drift tube linac (IH-DTL) are used to accelerate muons to
= v/c = 0.08 and 0.28, respectively, at an operating frequency of 324 MHz. To reduce construction costs, the IH-DTL employs the alternating phase focusing (APF) method, which uses the transverse focusing force derived from the RF electric field. Because the APF method limits the transverse and longitudinal acceptances simultaneously, careful beam diagnostics and commissioning are essential to suppress the emittance growth derived from beam mismatches. As a result of the beam simulation, by conducting appropriate beam matching, the normalized rms emittance of 0.3
-mm-mrad and the transmission to the downstream detector of 97% was obtained. In this paper, the results of the tracking simulation and the development status of the diagnostic and transport beamlines in the low-velocity section are described.

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) manages wide range of nuclear facilities. Many of these facilities are required to be performed adjustment with the aging and complement with the new regulatory standards and the earthquake resistant, since the Great East Japan Earthquake and the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station accident. It is therefore desirable to promote decommissioning of facilities that have reached the end of their productive life in order to reduce risk and maintenance costs. However, the progress of facility decommissioning require large amount of money and radioactive waste storage space. In order to address these issues, JAEA has formulated a "The Medium/Long-Term Management Plan of JAEA Facilities" with three pillars: (1) consolidation and prioritization of facilities, (2) assurance of facility safety, and (3) back-end countermeasures. In this plan, Plutonium Fuel Fabrication Facility has been selected as primary decommissioned facility, and dismantling of equipment in the facilities have been underway. The following gloveboxes were dismantled between March 2020 and March 2022: Glovebox No. W-4, which houses the roasting furnace, washing and dewatering tank, and washing waste tank; Glovebox No. W-5, which houses the weighing tank; Glovebox No. W-6-1, which houses the flocculation-sedimentation tank, slurry-receiving tank, neutralization tank, and receiving tank; and Glovebox No. W-6-2, which houses the adjustment tank, adjustment liquid agitator, adsorption tower, discharge tank, discharge tank agitator, and adsorption tower. This report summarizes the results of the work and the findings obtained through the dismantling of these gloveboxes.

In modern proton accelerators, the survivability of beam-intercepting devices, such as targets, beam windows and beam dumps, under intense beam irradiation is a key factor limiting the achievement of higher beam power. This article introduces the challenges faced by the secondary particle production targets and beam windows at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), and the developments undertaken to overcome these challenges.

Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:22.05(Nuclear Science & Technology)A dissolution method for analyzing the elemental composition of fuel debris using the sodium peroxide (Na
O
) fusion technique has been developed. Herein, two different types of simulated debris materials (such as solid solution of (Zr,RE)O
and molten core-concrete interaction products (MCCI)) were taken. At various temperatures, these debris materials were subsequently fused with Na
O
in crucibles, which are made of different materials, such as Ni, Al
O
, Fe, and Zr. Then, the fused samples are dissolved in nitric acid. Furthermore, the effects of the experimental conditions on the elemental composition analysis were evaluated using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), which suggested the use of a Ni crucible at 923 K as an optimum testing condition. The optimum testing condition was then applied to the demonstration tests with Three Mile Island unit-2 (TMI-2) debris in a shielded concrete cell, thereby achieving complete dissolution of the debris. The elemental composition of TMI-2 debris revealed by the proposed dissolution method has good reproducibility and has an insignificant contradiction in the mass balance of the sample. Therefore, this newly developed reproducible dissolution method can be effectively utilized in practical applications by dissolving fuel debris and estimating its elemental composition.
