Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:10.81(Chemistry, Multidisciplinary)The speciation and coordination geometries of M(III)-citrate complexes in aqueous solutions, where M denotes Eu, Tb, Lu, or Cm, are studied using potentiometric titration, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies. Their photophysical properties are also characterized by time-resolved fluorescence spectra. The formation constants of mononuclear, dinuclear, and trinuclear Lu-citrate species were determined by potentiometric titration in 3.00 M NaClO aqueous media. Terminal carboxylic conformation in trinuclear complexes comprised both the five- and six-membered rings at different exchanging rates. Hydration states evaluated for Eu
ions are the chemical formula of [Eu(Cit)
(H
O)
]
and [Eu
(OH)
(Cit)
(H

]
. These complexes in aqueous solution have geometrical similarity to the crystal structures in the literature. Furthermore, the entity of the hetero-trinuclear complex induces the intramolecular energy transfer from Tb
to Eu
. The incorporation of Cm
into these homo/hetero-trinuclear citrate complexes proved to be a successful trial to probe the formation of actinide polymer at a trace level.

Times Cited Count:14 Percentile:75.83(Chemistry, Analytical)Sorption of Np(V) on illite, shale and MX-80 under oxidizing conditions were first studied in two types of high ionic strength solutions: (1) a reference brine solution (SR-270-PW) with an ionic strength (I) of 6.0 M, and (2) Na-Ca-Cl solutions (with different Na/Ca molar ratios and different ionic strengths, up to a maximum of 4.6 M). The effects of pHc, Na/Ca ratio, and ionic strength on sorption in Na-Ca-Cl solutions were investigated. The Kd values increased with increasing pHc and Na/Ca ratio for all sorbents studied. The Kd values on illite and shale were independent of the ionic strength over the range 0.10-4.6 M, and the Kd value on MX-80 was independent of ionic strength greater than 1.0 M. The Kd values and the sorption isotherms in both SR-270-PW and Na-Ca-Cl solutions were also studied.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Nuclear Science & Technology)The thermal impacts of hull and end piece wastes from the reprocessing of MOX spent fuels burned in LWRs on repository performance were investigated. The heat generation rates in MOX spent fuels and the resulting heat generation rates in hull and end piece wastes change depending on the fuel histories including the burn-up of UO spent fuels, the cooling period before reprocessing, the storage period of fresh MOX fuels. The heat generation rates of hull and end piece wastes from the reprocessing of MOX spent fuels with any of those histories are significantly larger than those from UO
spent fuels with burn-ups of 45 GWd/THM. If a temperature below 80
C is specified for cement-based materials used in waste packages after disposal, the allowable number of canisters containing compacted hull and end pieces in a package for 45 GWd-MOX needs to be limited to a value of 0.7 to 1.6, which is significantly lower than the value of 4.0 for 45 GWd-UO

Actinide science research is indispensable to maintain sustainable development of innovative nuclear technology. For actinide science research, special facilities with containment and radiation shields are needed to handle actinide materials. The number of facilities for actinide science research has been decreased, especially in universities, due to the high maintenance cost. J-ACTINET was established in 2008 to promote and facilitate actinide science research and to foster many of young scientists and engineers in actinide science. The research program was carried out, through which young researchers were expected to learn how to make experiments with advanced experimental tools and to broaden their horizons. The summer schools and computational science school were held to provide students and young researchers with the opportunities to come into contact with actinide science research. The overseas dispatch program was also carried out.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear)Basic research in actinide chemistry and physics is indispensable to maintain sustainable development of innovative nuclear technology. Actinides, especially minor actinides of americium and curium, need to be handled in special facilities with containment and radiation shields. To promote and facilitate the actinide research, close cooperation with the facilities and sharing of technical and scientific information must be very important and effective. A three-year-program "Basic actinide chemistry and physics research in close cooperation with hot laboratories", ACTILAB, was started to form the bases of sustainable development of innovative nuclear technology. In this program, researches on actinide solid-state physics, solution chemistry and solid-liquid interface chemistry are made using four main facilities in Japan in close cooperation with each other, where basic experiments with transuranium elements can be made. The O-NMR measurements were performed on (Pu

Times Cited Count:7 Percentile:26.54(Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear)We propose a new method, a difference maximum entropy method (MEM) analysis of the neutron diffraction data, for revealing the detailed structure around hydrogen atoms in proton-conducting oxides. This MEM analysis uses the differences between the structure factors of protium- and deuterium-dissolved crystals. Simulations demonstrate that it not only provides the distribution of hydrogen atoms alone, but also improves the spatial resolution of MEM mapping around hydrogen atoms. Applied to actual diffraction data of protium- and deuterium-dissolved BaSnIn
O
at 9 K, difference MEM analysis reveals that O-D bonds mostly tilt towards the second nearest oxygen atoms, and that the distributions of deuterium and oxygen atoms are probably insignificant in interstitial regions.

We explained how the metal binding to heterogeneous surfaces can be modeled and showed the modeling results of the copper binding to humic acid by the NICA-Donnan model. This report concentrates on two topic: (i) the modeling of the copper binding to goethite, one of representative metal (hydr)oxides, by the CD-MUSIC model and (ii) the influence of the adsorption of humic acid on goethite upon the proton binding to their mixture. The recent progress in the modeling of the ternary system (metal ions/ NOMs/ OXs) is also introduced at the end of the report.

Redox reactions between Cr(VI) and iron(II) chloride (FeCl2) and those between Cr(VI) and magnetite (Fe(II)1Fe(III)2O4) were observed as a preliminary study. According to the experimental results, it was suggested that the redox reactions were promoted more than the amount of Fe(II) on magnetite surface because of electron transfer from internal Fe(II) to magnetite surface. The results were quantitatively supported from quantum chemical calculations. Redox reactions between Np(V) and magnetite and the reduction of Np to tetravalent were observed, while those between Np(V) and FeCl2 were not observed obviously. It was observed that the reactions were promoted rapidly when the magnetite / solution ratio and the temperature were high, and the rate constant of the reactions was obtained. Furthermore, it was found that hydrogen gas and hydrogen ion were generated with crushing the quartz in an inert gas atmosphere.

Model V and NICA-Donnan model, which can describe the interaction of humic acids with metals, were reviewed and CD-MUSIC model, which is a typical surface complexation model of metals with solid surfaces, was also introduced. In Model V, the equilibrium of chemicals among water in environment, sediments and solids is considered. In NICA-Donnan model, the electrostatic interactions due to the difference in the activities between humic acids and bulk is included and the heterogeneity of binding sites in humic acids is also taken into account. In this report, the problems of these models was summarized and the future development was discussed. In experimental part, the proton dissociation reaction and the interaction with Cu were investigated, by titration experiments using Aldrich humic acids. Considering NICA-Donnan model, the interaction parameters of the proton dissociation reaction and the interaction with Cu
were evaluated. In calculation part, the mixing characteristics of water flow in fracture junctions was discussed by Real-coded Lattice Gas model. The mixing ratio at the outlet of fracture junctions was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively as a function of Peclet number. Furthermore, the trajectory of colloid transport in the laminar flow at bending tube was calculated, and the effect of the mass of colloid was qualitatively studied. The random walk and diffusion phenomena of colloids were found to be successfully calculated by Real-coded Lattice Gas model developed in this work.
