The amount of C in steel, which is critical in determining its properties, is strongly influenced by steel production technology. We propose a novel method of quantifying the bulk C content in steel non-destructively using muons. This revolutionary method may be used not only in the quality control of steel in production, but also in analyzing precious steel archaeological artifacts. A negatively charged muon forms an atomic system owing to its negative charge, and is finally absorbed into the nucleus or decays to an electron. The lifetimes of muons differ significantly, depending on whether they are trapped by Fe or C atoms, and identifying the elemental content at the muon stoppage position is possible via muon lifetime measurements. The relationship between the muon capture probabilities of C/Fe and the elemental content of C exhibits a good linearity, and the C content in the steel may be quantitatively determined via muon lifetime measurements. Furthermore, by controlling the incident energies of the muons, they may be stopped in each layer of a stacked sample consisting of three types of steel plates with thicknesses of 0.5 mm, and we successfully determined the C contents in the range 0.20 - 1.03 wt% depth-selectively, without sample destruction.

Recent studies about ECRIS have revealed that not only the maximum magnetic field (B$$_{rm max}$$) but also the minimum field(B$$_{rm min}$$) has effect on the production ability. A superconducting ECRIS which can change the B$$_{rm min}$$ distribution with plural solenoids shows that a flat distribution of B$$_{rm min}$$ (flat B$$_{rm min}$$) gives better performance in highly charged ion production than classical B$$_{rm min}$$. Superconducting device of conduction cooling type is useful, because a Lq-helium system needs a large quantity of Lq-helium to be supplied at after every quench. However, many refrigerators are necessary to keep low temperature against the heat through the current leads of a number of coils to form flat-B$$_{rm min}$$. Therefore, we have designed a coil configuration which can adjust B$$_{rm max}$$ and flat-B$$_{rm min}$$ with the minimum lead number of four. The flat-B$$_{rm min}$$ is formed by three central coils connected one another between the mirror coils. There is another pair of coils to adjust B$$_{rm max}$$ of the injection side keeping flat B$$_{rm min}$$ unchanged.

Elemental analysis of bulk materials can be performed by detecting the high-energy X-rays emitted from muonic atoms. Muon irradiation of standard bronze samples was performed to determine the muon capture probabilities for the elemental components from muonic X-ray spectra. Nondestructive elemental analysis of an ancient Chinese coin was also performed.

Three electrostatic accelerators of TIARA were operated smoothly in FY 2010, and all the planned experiments were carried out except those canceled by users or the impact of Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011. On the other hand, Saturday operation for experiments was carried out after October on the Global Nuclear-Human Resource Development Initiative. The yearly operation time of the tandem accelerator, the single-ended accelerator and the ion implanter amounted to 2116, 2367 and 1800 hours, respectively, which were similar to those of usual years. Regarding the single-ended accelerator, the generator in the high-voltage terminal failed and was replaced with new one. A switching magnet was installed for a new branch beam line of the ion implanter. As to the tandem accelerator, In ion was generated and accelerated at intensity of 500 nA.

Three electrostatic accelerators of TIARA were operated smoothly in FY 2009, and all the planned experiments were carried out except those canceled by users. The yearly operation time of the tandem accelerator, the single-ended accelerator and the ion implanter amounted to 2100, 2416 and 1866 hours, respectively. Regarding the single-ended accelerator, the radio frequency oscillator of the ion source mounted in high-voltage terminal and the sequencer for control of the SB beam line failed, and they were replaced. The oven controller of Freeman ion source of the ion implanter was renewed. As to the tandem accelerator, Mn ion was successfully generated and accelerated with intensity of 150 nA.

Operation times of each accelerator are keeping the same level as in recent 10 years, Tandem accelerator, Single-ended and Ion implanter amounted to about 2,000, 2,500 and 1,900 hours, respectively. In the last fiscal year, we succeeded in maintaining the terminal voltage of the tandem accelerator to high stability for long periods by exchanging the material of a corona-probe needle to the tungsten (NPS Co.). In the ion-implanter, the oven control system equipped with the Freeman ion source was renewed. There was no trouble to affect on the machine-time in the last fiscal year, so the all planned experiments were carried out.
