Breakdowns occur in the JT-60U 500 kV negative ion accelerator with a high probability during the high voltage conditioning. The breakdown in the accelerator is the same phenomena as a short circuit for the power supply. Surge noise generated by the short circuit causes malfunctions of components in the NBI system and other systems. To evaluate the surge noise characteristics, the breakdown noise has been measured using a test circuit with a spark gap which is the protection gap for the accelerator and it considered to be a source of noise. Further, reduction of the surge noise at the spark gap and countermeasure of the malfunction due to the noise have been studied quantitatively at the side of the system where the malfunction occurs. As a result, it has been observed that the noise propagates through space or grounding lines and gives malfunctions for other systems. To reduce the noise, resistors have been connected in the ground potential side of the gap. It was confirmed that the resistor is effective to reduce the noise and probability of the malfunction has been reduced from 100% to 15%. In addition, by placing the ferrite core in the grounded line and by using an isolation amplifier, the malfunction was further reduced to 10%.

Times Cited Count：13 Percentile：69.42(Nuclear Science & Technology)Neutral beam (NB) injectors for JT-60 Super Advanced (JT-60SA) have been designed and developed. Twelve positive-ion-based and one negative-ion-based NB injectors are allocated to inject 30 MW D
beams in total for 100 s. Each of the positive-ion-based NB injector is designed to inject 1.7 MW for 100s at 85 keV. A part of the power supplies and magnetic shield utilized on JT-60U are upgraded and reused on JT-60SA. To realize the negative-ion-based NB injector for JT-60SA where the injection of 500 keV, 10 MW D beams for 100s is required, R&Ds of the negative ion source have been carried out. High-energy negative ion beams of 490-500 keV have been successfully produced at a beam current of 1-2.8 A through 20% of the total ion extraction area, by improving voltage holding capability of the ion source. This is the first demonstration of a high-current negative ion acceleration of 
1 A to 500 keV. The design of the power supplies and the beamline is also in progress. The procurement of the acceleration power supply starts in 2010.

Times Cited Count：51 Percentile：88.18(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)Hydrogen negative ion beams of 490 keV, 3 A and 510 keV, 1 A have been successfully produced in the JT-60 negative ion source with three acceleration stages. These successful productions of the high-energy beams at high current have been achieved by overcoming the most critical issue, i.e., a poor voltage holding of the large negative ion sources with the grids of 2 m
for JT-60SA and ITER. To improve voltage holding capability, the breakdown voltages for the large grids was examined for the first time. It was found that a vacuum insulation distance for the large grids was 6-7 times longer than that for the small-area grid (0.02 m). From this result, the gap lengths between the grids were tuned in the JT-60 negative ion source. The modification of the ion source also realized a significant stabilization of voltage holding and a short conditioning time. These results suggest a practical use of the large negative ion sources in JT-60SA and ITER.

A large negative ion source with an ion extraction area of 110 cm 
45 cm has been developed to produce 500 keV, 22 A D
ion beams required for JT-60 Super Advanced. To realize the JT-60SA negative ion source, the JT-60 negative ion source has been modified and tested on the negative-ion-based neutral beam injector on JT-60U. A 500 keV H ion beam has been produced at 3 A without a significant degradation of beam optics. This is the first demonstration of a high energy negative ion acceleration of more than one-ampere to 500 keV in the world. The beam current density of 90 A/m is being increased to meet 130 A/m of the design value for JT-60SA by tuning the operation parameters. A long pulse injection of 30 s has been achieved at a injection D power of 3 MW. The injection energy, defined as the product of the injection time and power, reaches 80 MJ by neutralizing a 340 keV, 27 A D ion beam produced with two negative ion sources.

Future synchrotron light source using a 5-GeV energy recovery linac (ERL) is under proposal by our Japanese collaboration team, and we are conducting R&D efforts for that. We are developing high-brightness DC photocathode guns, two types of cryomodules for both injector and main superconducting (SC) linacs, and 1.3 GHz high CW-power RF sources. We are also constructing the Compact ERL (cERL) for demonstrating the recirculation of low-emittance, high-current beams using above-mentioned critical technologies.

Times Cited Count：12 Percentile：43.76(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)The JT-60SA N-NBI system is required to inject 10 MW for 100 s at 500 keV. Three key issues should be solved for the JT-60SA N-NBI ion source. One is to improve the voltage holding capability. Recent R&D tests suggested that the accelerator with a large area of grids may need a high margin in the design of electric field and a long time for conditioning. The second issue is to reduce the grid power loading. It was found that some beamlets were strongly deflected due to beamlet-beamlet interaction and strike on the grounded grid. The grids are to be designed by taking account of beamlet-beamlet interaction in three-dimensional simulation. Third is to maintain the D- production for 100 s. A simple cooling structure is proposed for the active cooled plasma grid, where a key is the temperature gradient on the plasma grid for uniform D- production. The modified N-NBI ion source will start on JT-60SA in 2015.

PNC type in-sodium hydrogen meters have been developed as leak detectors for LMFBR MONJU steam generators. In order to confirm the long-term reliability and the durability of the meters, the four meters were installed in three sodium loops at the O-arai Engineering Center, and they had been tested over a long time in flowing sodium. A period of the test was from oct. 1977 to Feb. 1980. They are called type II. The dynamic chamber of the vacuum system can separate from the static one, and be also connected with it using one flexible tube. Important findings from the test are; (1) The operating time of two meters exceeded 10,000 hours, and the total of all meters was about 35,000 hours. No trouble had been experienced in the sodium systems and the nickel membranes of them during the period, which had the good durability. Air leaks, however, occured three times in the two vacuum systems. (2) Any secular changes had hardly happened in the permeability of hydrogen through the nickel membrane and the relationship between ion pump current and hydrogen pressure. (3) The pumping speeds had decreased with increasing the amount of absorbed hydrogen. The decreasing rates differed among four ion pumps, and those of two pumps were considerably large at the beginning of absorbing hydrogen. (4) The calibration curves, which describe the relationship between hydrogen concentration in sodium and ion pump current, had changed with time. The largest cause was the decrement of the pumping speeds. (5) The UHV gauges were superior to the ion pumps from the point of the signal-to-noise ratio as the hydrogen sensor.

Magnetization distribution maps deduced from the measurement of polarization dependent cross-sections have provided unique information in understanding of the detailed electronic configurations in mixed valence materials and molecular magnets. Because of the limited neutron flux the method has been mostly applied to single crystal studies. In the advent of strong pulsed neutron source with intense high resolution powder diffractomer the magnetization distribution measurements by means of polarized neutron powder diffraction can become common place. The introduction of the high magnetic field may extend the applicability of the method to materials requiring high saturation field. In this lecture the polarized neutron powder diffraction experiment on Fe16N2 performed in the frame work of "Ibaraki Prefecture Neutron Utilization Working Subgroup on nano-magnetic materials" will be presented and the possibility of the method at J-PARC will be discussed.
