被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Lightning discharges can produce transient gamma-ray emissions called terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs), which originates from electrons accelerated to relativistic energies in strong electric fields. However, it is not yet understood how lightning produces an enormous number of relativistic electrons in dense atmospheres. We present that, thanks to a ground-based observation with optical, radio frequency and high-energy measurements focused on television transmission towers in Kanazawa, Japan, a TGF and a cloud-to-ground discharge of 
kA occurred when a downward negative leader was colliding with an upward positive leader from the tower. Because the cloud-to-ground current followed the TGF by 30 
s, the TGF started when two leaders approached each other. Our results indicate that an immense number of electrons were produced and accelerated to relativistic energies in a strong and compact electric-field region between the two leaders.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Chiral superconductivity exhibits the formation of novel electron pairs that breaks the time-reversal symmetry and has been actively studied in various quantum materials in recent years. However, despite its potential to provide definitive information, effects of disorder in the crystal structure on the chiral superconductivity has not yet been clarified, and therefore the investigation using a solid-solution system is desirable. We report muon-spin-relaxation (SR) results of layered pnictide BaPtAsSb with a honeycomb network composed of Pt and (As, Sb). We observed an increase of the zero-field SR rate in the superconducting (SC) state at the Sb end of

プルトニウム転換技術開発施設の廃液処理工程で発生したスラッジ中のPu量を評価する上で、スラッジは生成上、多くの不純物(Na, Fe, Ni等)を含み不均質であるため、従来の破壊分析ではサンプリングによる代表性が乏しく、Pu量測定に係る測定不確かさが大きかった(約24%)。この測定不確かさを低減させるために、日本原子力研究開発機構と米国ロスアラモス国立研究所は共同で中性子を利用した非破壊測定装置のPlutonium Scrap Multiplicity Counter (PSMC)を用いた測定技術の開発を進めた。MOX粉末を用いた模擬スラッジやモンテカルロ法により検証等を行いPSMC検出器パラメーター(predelay, doubles gatefraction等)を最適化し、高分解能ガンマ線分光分析を組み合わせて測定した結果、含有不純物の影響はないことが確認でき、従来法と比べ新たに設定した非破壊測定方法における測定不確かさは約6.5%まで低減できた。さらに、PSMC測定値の妥当性を評価するため、IAEA立ち合いの下、ガンマ線を測定しPu量を評価するIn Situ Object Counting System (ISOCS)を用いた比較測定した結果、ISOCSとPSMCの測定値は両方の測定不確かさの範囲内で一致したため、PSMCによる測定値の妥当性が確認された。これらの結果より、本非破壊測定技術はスラッジのように不純物を多く含み、サンプリングの代表性が乏しいアイテムに有効であり、スラッジの計量管理に適用することが認められた。

被引用回数：1 パーセンタイル：82.77(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We reported the magnetic behavior of a rhombic lattice quantum antiferromagnet KCoPOHO. The rhombic lattice model is equivalent to a model of a square lattice with two different diagonal components, and competing exchange interactions potentially produce exotic quantum states. This compound is well characterized by the 
= 1/2 state. The magnetic structure of KCoPOHO is identified as an incommensurate helical structure, characterized by a magnetic modulation propagation vector 
= (0.1747(1) 0 0) with an in-plane moment rotating along the 
axis. Moreover, a magnetic field-induced phase transition is observed at approximately 1 T. The application of a magnetic field suppresses spin ordering and enhance spin fluctuations. Our experimental results suggest the presence of a quantum phase in the magnetic phase diagram of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg rhombic lattice antiferromagnet with easy-plane anisotropy.

Sm synchrotron-radiation-based Mssbauer spectroscopy has been applied to Sm-based heavy fermion intermetallics, Sm
Al
(
= Ti, V and Cr) and SmOsSb
. The isomer shifts obtained demonstrate that the Sm valence states in these compounds are intermediate. Since the difference of the isomer shifts in 22.502 keV Sm Mssbauer effect between Sm
and Sm
state is comparable to the 2nd order Doppler shift, consideration of the 2nd order Doppler shift is required to precisely discuss Sm valence state through the shifts of the Mssbauer spectra. In addition, the plots of the isomer shifts obtained by the Mssbauer spectroscopy against the Sm valence states estimated from Sm L-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy exhibit a linear correlation except for that in SmOs
Sb. This implies that the origin of the intermediate valence state in SmOsSb differs from that in SmAl ( = Ti, V and Cr).

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)In this study, we show that the orthorhombic system TaMnP exhibits a large anomalous Hall conductivity (AHC) in spite of the small net magnetization. Neutron scattering experiment and the observation of the AH effect comprehensively suggest a dominant AF structure in TaMnP is represented by 
. The AHC is one of the largest among those observed in AF materials at zero fields. First-principles calculations suggest that the spin-orbit interaction originating in nonmagnetic Ta-5 electrons significantly contributes to the enhancement of Berry curvatures in the momentum space. We found that the AF domain switching is triggered by the magnetic fields along all the crystal axes. This indicates that the AF domain determining the sign of the Hall response can be controlled even through the small net magnetization symmetrically different.

-ray component on the dose distribution. Several parameter surveys were conducted with respect to the beam properties of neutron sources for boron neutron capture therapy assuming boronophenylalanine as the boron agent using our dose calculation tool, called SiDE. The ADs decreased by 3% at a thermal/epithermal ratio of 20% - 30% compared with the current recommendation of

The fast neutron component was modified using two different models, namely, the "linear model," in which the fast neutron intensity decreases log-linearly with the increasing neutron energy, and the "moderator thickness (MT) model," in which the fast neutron component is varied by adjusting the moderator thickness in a virtual beam shaping assembly. Although a higher fast neutron component indicated a higher skin dose, the increment was 
at a fast neutron component of 
Gy cm
for both models. Furthermore, in the MT model, the epithermal neutron intensity was 
higher at a fast neutron component of 
Gy cm compared with the current recommendation of

ナトリウム冷却高速炉では、高温のナトリウムが構造物に接触するのを防ぐため、主容器内のナトリウムプールの上部にアルゴンガスで満たされたカバーガス領域が設けられている。この領域では、カバーガスの自然対流による熱輸送、液面と構造物間の輻射、ミストと蒸気間のナトリウムの相変化とともに、蒸発、凝縮、構造物への沈着によるナトリウムの質量輸送も起こる。本研究では、市販のCFDコードFluentにナトリウムミストの輸送・成長モデル、輻射散乱モデルを組み込んだ数値評価法を開発した。評価法の妥当性を確認するため、円筒形のカバーガス領域を持つ実験室規模の試験のシミュレーションを実施し、カバーガス領域内の温度分布とナトリウムミスト濃度、およびカバーガス領域を横切る熱流束が試験結果とよく一致することを確認した。プール型ナトリウム冷却高速炉のシミュレーションでは、過飽和度が大きいカバーガス領域の上部にある環状部を中心に、より低温の領域でナトリウムミストが生成されること、カバーガスがナトリウム液面から上昇する領域では、カバーガス温度とナトリウムミスト濃度が高くなることがわかった。

The authors has been studied the effect of initial plastic deformation on the load displacement relationship of elbow of different wall thicknesses made of carbon steel. Specifically, the authors conducted load testing for elbow when three cycles of sinusoidal input with frequency of 0.02 Hz were applied to one end of the test specimen. In the load testing, for investigating effect of difference of wall thickness and initial deformation, three types of test specimens with different wall thicknesses were loaded under three different initial deformation. Next, in the finite element analysis (FEA), the same conditions are applied in the analyses that were performed for three types of piping with different wall thicknesses before and after plastic deformation. The effect of initial displacement on the load - displacement relationship was confirmed by loading test, and analytical investigations were also considered. Thus, in this paper, the authors show the two mainly obtained results as organizations of the some issues to improve the accuracy of the analysis with large deformation. Firstly, from the comparison of the test and analytical results confirmed that the load - displacement relationship, the results could be shown as an initial plastic deformation caused not only decreasing in primary stiffness but also decreasing maximum load, on all load testing cases. And then, relative errors in the maximum loads between load testing and FEA results were observed that the errors on maximum loads of tension were larger than those of compression. Secondly, focusing on the wall thickness, the trends of relative errors of the maximum load could be shown when the wall thickness increase the errors on maximum loads of compression. However the trends of the errors on maximum loads of tension were shown completely different.

被引用回数：1 パーセンタイル：0.00(Engineering, Multidisciplinary)Passive safety structures were applied to next-generation fast reactors, subject to high temperature and low-pressure conditions. In the case of loss-of-heat-removal accidents, high temperature conditions accelerate the creep deformation of structures. When deformation redistributes loadings and reduces stresses at important positions such as coolant boundaries, progression to creep rupture of boundaries can be mitigated. When an excessive earthquake occurs, plastic deformation and buckling become dominant, due to low pressure and, therefore, a thin-wall structure. The above-mentioned failure modes reduce rigidity and natural frequency. When the natural frequency becomes lower than the input frequency, vibration energy is hardly transferred to structures and the subsequent failures of structures, such as collapse and break, are mitigated.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Nuclear Science & Technology)The activation level of the JAEA-Tokai tandem accelerator facility was investigated experimentally in advance of the future decommissioning. JAEA-Tokai tandem accelerator facility has a higher terminal voltage of 18 MV and a larger total floor area, Compared to other electrostatic accelerators with terminal voltage of 1 MV to 6 MV. Therefore, determination for 'where', 'what', and 'how many' nuclides are produced in the facility is crucial. Thermal neutrons generated by beam losses associated with accelerator operations contribute significantly to the activation of equipment and facilities. The accumulated activities of 
Co and 
Eu; the most considerable radionuclides at the decommissioning, can be deduced by the thermal neutron fluence rate during the accelerator operation. In this study, thermal neutron fluence measurement on the surface of the pressure vessel and concrete building was conducted with conventional methods using dosimeters and metal foil detectors as well as a new method using a portable -ray detector. The thermal neutron fluence in the facility during the accelerator operation ranges from 101 to 10

At the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, it has been reported that several units of containment vessel had failed, and large quantity of radionuclides had been released into the environment. However, the detailed accident progression of such a containment failure, which includes core melt, reactor vessel failure and following containment vessel behavior, has still large uncertainties. Especially for the unit 2 and 3, they had succeeded in the initial core cooling, but at last lost their cooling system and fell into severe accident to release the fission product into the environment. Nowadays, several information has been obtained by the internal inspection into the containment of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plants. To clarify the uncertainties in the accident scenario, considering the information and several insights already accustomed by previous research, the latest accident scenario in unit 2 and unit 3 of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plants accident are suggested and tested by the severe accident analysis code, MAAP in this study. It is shown that unit 2 and 3 both accident scenario would have resulted in the thermal stratification in suppression pool which encouraged the containment pressure response in the early phase of the accident. In addition, containment vessel leakage would have occurred and affected the containment depressurization.
