In nominally 7% Zn substituted CeCoIn, an antiferromagnetic (AFM) state coexists with heavy fermion superconductivity. Heterogeneity of the electronic states is investigated in Zn doped CeCoIn by means of nuclear quadrupole and magnetic resonances (NQR and NMR). Site-dependent NQR relaxation rates indicate that the AFM state is locally nucleated around Zn substituents in the matrix of a heavy fermion state, and percolates through the bulk at the AFM transition temperature 
. At lower temperatures, an anisotropic superconducting (SC) gap below the SC transition temperature , and the SC state permeates through the AFM regions via a SC proximity effect. Applying an external magnetic field induces a spin-flop transition near 5 T, reducing the volume of the AFM regions. Consequently, a short ranged inhomogeneous AFM state survives and coexists with a paramagnetic Fermi liquid state at high fields.

The technology development section develops the neutron polarization device: 
He Spin Filter, which can polarize neutrons in wide energy range. Polarized epi-thermal neutrons, which can be produced using He spin filter, can be useful for fundamental physics. Time-reversal violation beyond the Standard Model of elementary particles is one of the biggest problems to solve the mystery of the origin of the universe. An experiment with polarized epi-thermal neutrons and a polarized target to search for the T-violation using compound nuclei is planned at J-PARC. The measurement result of the angular distributions of -rays from La+n to excited states of La is presented.

Parity violating effects enhanced by up to 10
times have been observed in several neutron induced compound nuclei. There is a theoretical prediction that time reversal (T) violating effects can also be enhanced in these nuclei implying that T-violation can be searched for by making very sensitive measurements. However, the enhancement factor has not yet been measured in all nuclei. The angular distribution of the (n,) reaction was measured with La by using a germanium detector assembly at J-PARC, and the enhancement factor was obtained. From the result, the measurement time to achieve the most sensitive T-violation search was estimated as 1.4 days, and a 40% polarized La target and a 70% polarized 
He spin filter whose thickness is 70 atm
cm are needed. Therefore high quality He spin filter is developed in JAEA. The measurement result of the (n,) reaction at J-PARC and the development status of the He spin filter will be presented.

The short-lived Nb and Ta were produced with nuclear reactions using a 
F beam whose energy was the same as that to produce 
Db. Then, they were separated with GARIS and extracted to a chemistry laboratory with the gas-jet transport system. By changing only magnetic field of GARIS and inserting an energy degrader and a shutter for recoil ions, we could deliver the Nb and Ta to a chemistry device for Db without changing other experimental conditions.

In order to realize neutron spectroscopy in high-intensity ray fields, an advanced nuclear emulsion based on a non-sensitized OPERA film with AgBr grain sizes of 60 nm has been developed together with a neutron spectrum unfolding method. The response functions were evaluated in the neutron energy range between 0.1 and 4.5 MeV by Monte Carlo calculations. To realize a highly reliable unfolding method that does not require an initial guess spectrum, an algorithm was formulized based on the maximum entropy principle and the maximum likelihood method, and the new unfolding code MEALU was developed. Through analyses of mock-up data, its performance was checked. The neutron spectrum from fresh fuel from the experimental fast reactor Joyo was estimated and track lengths were simulated using the calculated response function and the estimated spectrum. Comparison between the assumed neutron spectrum and the unfolded one confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

Times Cited Count：10 Percentile：39.16(Physics, Applied)We demonstrate the potential of a hydrothermal method-grown ZnO as a high-spatial resolution imaging device for in-situ soft X-ray laser diagnostics by characterizing the exciton emission patterns. By plotting the emission pattern radii at each position, we estimated the evolution of the beam radius around the focal point. The beam profile of the Ni-like Ag ion plasma laser was estimated from the waist radii as 29 and 21
m, the divergence angle as 7.2 and 11 mrad and the M2 factor as 47 and 50 in the horizontal- and vertical-axis, respectively. Spatial resolution of the magnifier was estimated to be 6m and is expected to improve by optimizing the optics of the magnifier and using a telescope. Our results would enhance the use of ZnO as an imaging device that would play a crucial role in the development and application of soft X-ray light sources.

Here we extend these studies to two particle correlations where one particle is an electron from the decay of a heavy flavor meson and the other is a charged hadron from either the decay of the heavy meson or from jet fragmentation. These measurements provide more detailed information about the interaction between heavy quarks and the quark-gluon matter. We find the away-side-jet shape and yield to be modified in Au+Au collisions compared to collisions.

The spatial resolution of hydrothermal method grown zinc oxide (ZnO) scintillator was evaluated using X-ray laser focused with Fresnel zone plate. The fluorescence image of the ZnO scintillator was measured to be less than 10um using CCD camera coupled with a Schbartzchild expander mirror. The availability of large size ZnO crystal up to 3-inch is quite attractive for future lithography and imaging applications.

Development of light sources in the soft X-ray/X-ray region, such as laser induced plasma emission and XFEL, is in demand for applications in various fields of science, medicine, and industry, among others. To promote this endeavor, development of imaging devices as diagnostic tools in this wavelength region is required. ZnO is a prominent candidate material for high spatial and temporal resolution imaging devices because of its emission at 380 nm, lifetime of less than 1 ns, and availability of large and cheap but high quality crystals. We obtained a single shot image of ZnO emission pattern excited by an X-ray laser at the Advanced Photon Research Center, Japan Atomic Energy Agency. The spatial resolution was estimated to be around 10 m. This result shows that ZnO can be used as a powerful imaging device for applications such as EUV lithography.

The Ni-substitutions of Co in the heavy fermion superconductor CeCoIn are reported to suppress the superconductivity by Yokoyama et al. in Ibaraki Univ. To microscopically investigate the Ni doping effect, we have performed NMR study in the alloy system of Ce(Co, Ni)In. We would like to discuss the spin fluctuations and the electronic state near the critical composition for the superconductivity in this system.
