Thermoelectric devices based on the spin Seebeck effect (SSE) were irradiated with gamma () rays with the total dose of around 310 Gy in order to investigate the -radiation resistance of the devices. To demonstrate this, Pt/NiZnFeO/Glass and Pt/BiYFeO/GdGaO SSE devices were used. We confirmed that the thermoelectric, magnetic, and structural properties of the SSE devices are not affected by the -ray irradiation. This result demonstrates that SSE devices are applicable to thermoelectric generation even in high radiation environments.

The general purpose Monte Carlo Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System, PHITS, is being developed through a collaboration of several institutes in Japan and Europe. The Japan Atomic Energy Agency is responsible for managing the entire project. PHITS can deal with the transport of nearly all particles, including neutrons, protons, heavy ions, photons, and electrons, over wide energy ranges using various nuclear reaction models and data libraries. This paper briefly summarizes the physics models implemented in PHITS, and introduces some important functions useful for particular purposes, such as an event generator mode and beam transport functions.

A general purpose Monte Carlo Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System, PHITS, is being developed through the collaboration of several institutes in Japan and Europe. PHITS can deal with the transport of nearly all particles, including neutrons, protons, heavy ions, photons, and electrons, over wide energy ranges using various nuclear reaction models and data libraries. All components of PHITS such as its source, executable and data-library files are assembled in one package and then distributed to many countries. More than 1,000 researchers apply the code to various research and development fields such as nuclear technology, accelerator design, medical physics, and cosmic-ray research. This presentation briefly summarizes the physics models implemented in PHITS, and introduces some important functions for specific applications, such as an event generator mode and a radiation damage calculation function.

We succeeded in growing a single crystal of CePtSi by the Sn-flux method. CePtSi is found to be an antiferromagnet with two transitions at 4.8 and 2.4 K. Magnetic easy direction was [100] direction with an ordered moment of 1.15 /Ce. The anisotropy is similar to that of CeIrSi in which the pressure-induced superconductivity was observed.

We succeeded in growing single crystals of ferromagnets NdRhB and GdRhB with the hexagonal structure, and measured the electrical resistivity, specific heat, magnetic susceptibility and magnetization. From these measurements, the Curie temperature is determined as =10.2 K in NdRhB and TC=93 K in GdRhB. The magnetic moments of about 2.5 in NdRhB and 7.7 in GdRhB are oriented in the basal plane. The crystalline electric field scheme is proposed for NdRhB on the basis of the experimental results of Schottky anomaly in the specific heat and anisotropic susceptibility and magnetization. The Fermi surface in NdRhB is very similar to that in a non-4 f reference compound LaRhB, possessing the quasi-one dimensional electronic character.

Single crystals of a pressure-induced superconductor CeNiGe have been successfully grown by the flux method. The anisotropic magnetic properties due to the orthorhombic crystal structure have been studied precisely by the electrical resistivity, specific heat, magnetic susceptibility, and high-field magnetization measurements. The results of these measurements confirmed two antiferromagnetic transitions at T=5.0 K and T=4.3 K. The electronic specific heat coefficient obtained from the low-temperature specific heat data amounts to 90 mJ/Kmol Ce. The high-field magnetization for H //[100] shows four magnetic transitions at 11.8, 12.9, 17.5 and 23.9 T with a saturation moment of 0.73 /Ce at 1.3 K. We have also performed the crystalline electric field (CEF) analysis on the magnetic susceptibility and magnetization to understand the magnetocrystalline anisotropy, where the splitting energies of two excited doublets in the CEF scheme are estimated to be 140 and 576 K, respectively.
