We aimed to validate the performance of an in situ underwater radiation detector, MARK-U1 (Monitoring of Ambient Radiation of KAERI - Underwater), was used to estimate 
Cs activity concentration in river and reservoir sediment at predicted sites of contamination. Additionally, underwater core samples were collected to measure the radioactivity using a high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector. To estimate radioactivity, a conversion factor was derived by comparing the measured spectrum and Cs activity in the sample. A Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) simulation was conducted to determine the effective source geometry for in situ measurement. The simulation results correlated well with the on-site MARK-U1 monitoring results, with a deviation of 31.62%. These findings validate the performance of the in situ detector. This device can therefore be used to estimate Cs activity concentration in the underwater sediment via on-site monitoring, without requiring sample collection.

One full-scale in-situ experiment and four laboratory experiments, largely complementary, were selected for modelling. The Horonobe EBS experiment is a temperature-controlled non-isothermal experiment combined with artificial groundwater injection. The Horonobe EBS experiment consists of the heating and cooling phases. Six research teams performed the THM or TH (depended on research team approach) numerical analyses using a variety of computer codes, formulations and constitutive laws.

A validated numerical model is employed to simulate the coupled thermo-hydrological behavior of heterogeneous porous media within the EBS. Two different primary variable schemes are compared in discretizing the governing equations, revealing significant difference in results.

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：20.75(Chemistry, Physical)Zero-field muon spin relaxation experiments were conducted on Al-0.06%Mn, Al-0.06%Cr, Al-0.02%Fe, and Al-0.02%Ni alloys (at.%) across the temperature ranging from 5 to 300 K. The temperature-dependent variations of the dipole field widths (
) elucidated four distinct peaks for the prepared alloys. Atomic configurations of the muon trapping sites corresponding to the observed peaks below 200 K were meticulously characterized utilizing first-principles calculations for the trapping energies of hydrogen in proximity to a solute and solute-vacancy pair. This comprehensive analysis facilitated the establishment of a linear correlation between the muon peak temperature and the hydrogen trapping energy. However, significant deviations from this linear relationship were observed for the fourth peaks above 200 K in Al-Mn, Al-Cr, Al-Fe, and Al-Ni alloys. This discrepancy can be interpreted by considering the disparate distribution functions of muon and hydrogen within the tetrahedral site, wherein two of the four Al atoms are substituted by the solute element and vacancy (solute-vacancy pair).

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：32.65(Instruments & Instrumentation)At Japanese Spallation Neutron Source in J-PARC, the para-hydrogen fraction was measured by using Raman spectroscopy in-situ for an integrated beam power of 9.4 MW
h at 1 MW operation, to evaluate the functionality of the ferric oxyhydroxide catalyst. This result showed that full functionality of the catalyst was retained up to the 1 MW operation. We attempted to study the effect of neutron scattering driven para to ortho-hydrogen back-conversion rate in the absence of the catalyst effect with a bypass line without catalyst. The measured increase of ortho-hydrogen fraction was 0.44% for an integrated beam power of 2.4 MWh at 500 kW operation, however, which was considered to be due to not only to neutron collisions in cold moderators but also to the high ortho-hydrogen fraction of initially static liquid hydrogen in the bypass line and passive exudation of quasi-static hydrogen in the catalyst vessel to the main loop.
