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.

Times Cited Count：10 Percentile：59.23(Chemistry, Analytical)A new technique for continuous dissolution of nuclear reaction products transported by a gas-jet system was developed for superheavy element (SHE) chemistry. In this technique, a hydrophobic membrane is utilized to separate an aqueous phase from the gas phase. With this technique, the dissolution efficiencies of short-lived radionuclides of 
Mo and 
W were measured. Yields of more than 80% were observed for short-lived radionuclides at aqueous-phase flow rates of 0.1-0.4 mL/s. The gas flow-rate had no influence on the dissolution efficiency within the studied flow range of 1.0-2.0 L/min. These results show that this technique is applicable for on-line chemical studies of SHEs in the liquid phase.

We are planning and partially beginning the construction of the near backscattering Si crystal analyzer spectrometer DNA at the Material and Life Science Facility (MLF), J-PARC. The optical specification of DNA is as follows. In the center of the vacuum chamber, a sample position is located at 42 m away form the coupled moderator. The analyzer banks of Si(111) and Si(311) single crystal wafers which are pasted on the spherical surface, are mounted at the right and left side each in the vacuum chamber. The Bragg angle of those analyzer crystals are about 87.5 deg and the distance between the sample position and the analyzer crystal is about 2.3 m. The analyzed neutron beams are detected by the 
Hee gas position sensitive detector located at around the sample position. Then the expected energy resolution and the dynamic range of the Si(111) crystal analyzer are about 1 micro-eV and 
40 micro-eV, respectively. We will report the optical principle and specification of DNA spectrometer.
