We are developing a Rn/At generator system to produce and deliver the medical radioisotope At. This study analyzed the dissolution of Rn in solution to investigate gas-phase recovery conditions of Rn in the Rn/At generator system. The dissolution of a Bi target in a nitric-hydrochloric acid mixture and subsequent neutralization has been shown to enhance the Rn recovery efficiency. The gas-phase Rn recovery rate reached 88%, while 50% of available At has been recovered, and further improvement can be expected in the future.

The Subcommittee on Research of Coupled Phenomena in Rock, under the Japan Society of Civil Engineers, conducts coupled numerical simulations using various approaches by participating members. The evaluation of the excavation damaged zone (EDZ) in the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory using hydro-mechanical coupled simulation is one of the tasks of the subcommittee. In this presentation, the problem statement, modeling approaches, and current results from participating organizations are summarized.

We aim to improve the detection limit of the ESR dosimetry method. In this study, the saturation behavior of each radical was investigated by varying the microwave power during ESR measurement. Based on the difference in spin relaxation time between carbonate radicals and native radicals, it is expected that the signal-to-noise ratio improves and the detection limit can be lowered when the microwave power is increased to 4.0 mW.

To clarify the radiation effects of the accident at the TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi NPP on living organisms, it is important to accurately estimate the dose to each individual. We have developed a multi-component analysis program using random number optimization to extract only the components derived from carbonate radicals from the ESR spectra.

In the design consideration of a geological disposal facility for radioactive waste, it is essential to perform a mechanical evaluation that takes into account phenomena that may occur from construction and operation to post-closure. With this background, we have developed the long-term mechanical analysis system MACBECE. In this research, we have built an analysis system that can consistently evaluate the mechanical behavior considering the thermal and hydraulic evolution after the closure of the repository by incorporating the constitutive model for unsaturated soils and coupling with the thermal-hydraulic analysis. As a validation, a mechanical analysis was conducted for the in-situ experiment for full-scale engineered barrier system performance experiment at Horonobe URL. Despite some discrepancies due to constraints in two-dimensional analysis, the extended functionality of the analysis code was confirmed to effectively repro-duce the measured data.

To accurately determine the external exposure dose, it is desirable to examine the analysis of the CO
radical intensity. We examined ESR spectra of teeth of 10 macaques captured in Fukushima by two spectrum-decomposition algorithms.

Times Cited Count：9 Percentile：82.79(Astronomy & Astrophysics)Gamma decays were observed in 
Ca and 
Ca following quasi-free one-proton knockout reactions from 
Sc. For Ca, a 
ray transition was measured to be 1456(12) keV, while for Ca an indication for a transition was observed at 1115(34) keV. Both transitions were tentatively assigned as the 
decays. A shell-model calculation in a wide model space with a marginally modified effective nucleon-nucleon interaction depicts excellent agreement with experiment for 
level energies, two-neutron separation energies, and reaction cross sections, corroborating the formation of a new nuclear shell above the N = 34 shell. Its constituents, the 
and 
orbitals, are almost degenerate. This degeneracy precludes the possibility for a doubly magic Ca and potentially drives the dripline of Ca isotopes to 
Ca or even beyond.
