Interactions between cement and host rock in geological repositories for radioactive waste will result in a chemically disturbed zone, which may potentially affect the long-term safety. This paper investigates the chemical evolution at the interface between cement (Ordinary Portland Cement: OPC and Low Alkaline Cement: LAC) and mudstone after 11 years of in situ reactions at the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory. The study combines various analytical techniques to identify the key reactions at the cement-rock interface, including cement dissolution, precipitation of secondary minerals such as calcite and C-(A-)S-H phases, cation exchange in montmorillonite and reduced porosity in mudstone. The study also highlights the effects of cement-mudstone interactions on radionuclide migration, such as reduction of diffusivity due to reduced porosity and enhancement of sorption due to incorporation into secondary minerals in the altered mudstone.

This paper presents insights into the influence of magnetite stoichiometry (0 
R = Fe(II)/Fe(III) 0.5) on the surface reduction of U(VI) to U(V) and U(IV), as a key parameter controlling U redox speciation in natural settings. Although R can readily change due to the oxidation of structural Fe(II) or proton/ligand-promoted dissolution, prior studies have not quantified U(V) when assessing these effects. We employed U L
-edge HERFD-XANES spectroscopy to investigate the electronic structure of U on magnetite with varying stoichiometries and observed a peak splitting of U(V) on magnetite. Our results demonstrate the high stability of U(V) species under a wide range of conditions, and after 10 days on magnetite by the combination of MCR-ALS analysis. A key finding is that structural Fe(II), whose abundance depends on pH and redox conditions, plays a critical role for in the stabilization of U(V) on magnetite.

In this presentation, we analyzed the chemical state of cesium in radiocesium-bearing microparticles (CsMPs) released during the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident using high-resolution X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XANES) and micro X-ray fluorescence (
-XRF). The results identified two forms of cesium: one dissolved in glass and the other enriched on the surfaces of internal voids. The latter is considered to have originally existed as a gas and became concentrated during the cooling and solidification of the molten glass. These findings are crucial for understanding the formation process of CsMPs during the accident, as well as for future decommissioning and safety assessments.

The triple differential cross-section was extracted and compared to distorted-wave impulse approximation reaction calculations performed in a microscopic framework using the Tohsaki-Horiuchi-Schuck-R
pke wave function and the wave function deduced from Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics calculations. The remarkable agreement between calculated and measured cross-sections in both shape and magnitude validates the description of the Be ground-state as a rather compact nuclear molecule.
