The number of research reactors in the world is decreasing because of their aging. However, the planning to introduce the nuclear power plants is increasing in Asian countries. In these Asian countries, the key issue is the human resource development for operation and management of nuclear power plants after constructed them, and also the necessity of research reactor, which is used for lifetime extension of LWRs, progress of the science and technology, expansion of industry use, human resources training and so on, is increasing. From above backgrounds, the Neutron Irradiation and Testing Reactor Center began to discuss basic concept of a multipurpose low-power research reactor for education and training, etc. This design study is expected to contribute not only to design tool improvement and human resources development in the Neutron Irradiation and Testing Reactor Center but also to maintain and upgrade the technology on research reactors in nuclear power-related companies. This report treats the activities of the working group from July 2010 to June 2011 on the multipurpose low-power research reactor in the Neutron Irradiation and Testing Reactor Center and nuclear power-related companies.

In this short communication, we report neutron diffractions under high pressure from lead powder in a Paris-Edinburgh cell at the High Resolution Powder Diffractometer (HRPD) installed at JRR-3, Ibaraki, Japan. This is the kick-off experiment in Japan as a high pressure powder diffraction study using reactor neutron source.

For the forward planning of high-pressure neutron diffraction study, it is meaningful to consider the use of Paris-Edinburgh (PE) high pressure cells. We conducted a first experiment for high-P powder diffraction using PE cells on the high resolution powder diffractometer (HRPD) in the reactor neutron source: JRR-3. Lead particle (Nilaco Co., 99.9999%), which has a relatively high scattering length and low absorption for neutron, was used as a sample in order to obtain the intensity data as efficient as possible. A couple of cubic BN anvils and a TiZr null metal gasket were used in order to avoid scattering from surrounding materials. The intensities of a 111 reflection, which is the strongest peak in lead sample, are 250 counts/h at ambient pressure and 80 counts/h at 30 tonnes. The pressure estimated by the obtained lattice constants at 30 tonnes was 2.9(1) GPa. These results allows us to estimate how long beam time is necessary for the potential experiments.

For the open use of MLF neutron source, robustness (senses including tolerance, stability, acceptable outer affairs) of neutron devices against power noise must be estimated for surely acquition of neutron experimental data. For this purpose, we measure the groundline and power-line shape synclonized with many events, such as crane, chopper, neutron shutter and them on. This data is very usable to solve some accident, such as shutter keeping close. In this presentation, we will show some our solutions.

In order to confirm the feasibility of high-pressure neutron diffraction at TAKUMI, we have performed a number of R&Ds using a various high-pressure devices. Optimization of materials such as anvil and pressure medium and developments of collimators have made possible reduction of background and contamination noise. Incident and diffracted neutron beams travel through high-pressure device, which causes attenuation of neutron. We investigated the method of attenuation correction.

The high-pressure neutron experiments above 10 GPa are limited so far due to the small neutron flux, which is insufficient for tiny high-pressure sample. Recent construction of the intense pulsed neutron source around the world has changed the situation. Inspired by the new Japanese pulsed neutron source JSNS at J-PARC, we started the high-P neutron experiments at the already operated beamlines (TAKUMI, NOVA) and the construction of the new beamline dedicated for high-pressure use (PLANET). This talk introduces these activities.

We have performed high-pressure neutron diffraction experiments at TAKUMI in J-PARC. Three types of high-pressure devices are used, Paris-Edinburgh Press, Palm cubic anvil cell and NPD-DAC. Optimization of materials such as anvil and pressure medium and developments of collimators have made possible reduction of background and contamination noise. Incident and diffracted neutron beams travel through high-pressure device, which causes attenuation of neutron. We have studied the method of attenuation correction and analyzed crystal structure using corrected neutron diffraction pattern.

Ac-225 is attracting attention as an alpha emitting medical radioisotope. Since its demand is expected to increase, domestic production of Ac-225 is required from the viewpoint of medical research and economic security of Japan. To establish the technical bases for the Ac-225 production, JAEA has evaluated the radioactivity can be produced in the experimental fast reactor Joyo and designed the concept that upgrades the existing facilities for transporting the irradiated target from Joyo to a neighboring PIE facility rapidly. This study has revealed that Joyo can sufficiently produce Ac-225 as a raw material for pharmaceuticals.
