A neutron resonance absorption imaging technique to visualize two-dimensional distributions with element discrimination has been developed at the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex. We measured neutron transmission spectra from 1 eV to 100 keV while rotating a sample containing iron, zirconium, nickel, molybdenum, and aluminum rods. The distributions of hafnium (impurity of zirconium) and molybdenum were clearly obtained by a straightforward analysis using the most prominent resonances. Then an analysis using multiple resonances of each element simultaneously was performed finding that the accuracy of elemental identification was improved, and iron and nickel distributions became clearer. However, these analysis methods sometimes have difficulties in the case of overlapping materials since a resonance shape can be deteriorated by those of other materials. Such an example was demonstrated with the case of iron and nickel. To overcome the issue and aiming for further improvement, we proposed a method to fit the transmission spectrum in a wide range assuming the existence of possible elements, successfully visualizing both the distributions of the sample metals and those of hafnium and manganese (impurities of zirconium and iron). The newly introduced analysis technique will contribute to the establishment of a standard analytical procedure for general users of the facility.

The Japan Research Ractor-3 (JRR-3) is operation resumed on February 26, 2021, and the shared use was also restarted in July, 2021. With the resumption of JRR-3 operation, two imaging facilities called TNRF and CNRF have also resumed their utilization. In this presentation, we report the details of these two neutron facilities.

We developed a method to obtain the areal density distribution of boron, which has a large neutron cross section, by means of an energy resolved neutron imaging. Commonly in a measurement of elements with very high neutron sensitivity, the quantitative measurement becomes more difficult with the amount of element due to the neutron self-shielding effect. To avoid this effect, an energy-resolved method using known cross section data was attempted, and a quantitative imaging of such elements was demonstrated at the MLF of J-PARC. This presentation introduces a measurement of melted simulated-fuel assemblies obtained in the research of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant after the severe accident. Energy-dependent neutron transmission rates of the samples were measured by a neutron imaging detector, and were analyzed to obtained the areal density of boron at each position.
