In recent years, research has been advanced on lead-cooled fast reactors and accelerator drive systems, and it is required to improve the accuracy of the neutron capture cross section of Pb isotopes. Although $$^{204}$$Pb has a small natural abundance, it is of importance because it produces the long-lived radionuclide $$^{205}$$Pb (17.3 million years) by neutron capture reaction. However, it is difficult to measure its cross section by a conventional activation method using a nuclear reactor because the induced radioactivity of $$^{205}$$Pb is weak. Hence, the cross-section measurement was performed by applying mass spectrometry. This presentation gives the details of the experiment and the results obtained in the neutron capture cross-section measurement of $$^{204}$$Pb using mass spectroscopy.

Low-lying dipole transitions in $$^{207}$$Pb were measured via nuclear photon scattering using a quasi-monochromatic, linearly polarized photon beam. The electric ($$E1$$) and magnetic ($$M1$$) dipole strengths were extracted for excitation energies up to 6.8 MeV. The present ($$vec{gamma}$$,$$gamma'$$) results, combined with ($$gamma$$,$$n$$) data from the literature, were used to investigate the $$E1$$ and $$M1$$ photoabsorption cross sections near the neutron separation energy by comparison with predictions of the particle-vibration coupling on top of the quasi-particle random phase approximation (PVC+QRPA).

The dipole strength distribution of $$^{206}$$Pb was investigated via a nuclear resonance fluorescence experiment using bremsstrahlung produced with an electron beam at a kinetic energy of 10.5 MeV at the linear accelerator ELBE. We identified 88 states resonantly excited at energies from 3.7 to 8.2 MeV. The photo-absorption cross sections were extracted from the measured scattering cross sections and the branching ratios. The present ($$gamma$$,$$gamma'$$) data combined with ($$gamma$$,$$n$$) data from the literature were used as an input to the statistical calculation code CCONE to evaluate the neutron capture cross section of the unstable $$^{205}$$Pb nucleus.

Low-lying dipole strength in $$^{52}$$Cr

The low-lying dipole strength in $$^{52}$$Cr was measured in nuclear resonance fluorescence experiments using a quasi-monochromatic, linearly polarized photon beam. The parities of the excited dipole states were determined by the intensity asymmetry of resonantly scattered $$gamma$$-rays with respect to the polarization plane of the incident photon beam. The summed magnetic dipole (M1) strength was determined as $$sum B(M1)uparrow=5.64(34) mu_N^2$$ at excitation energies between 7.5 and 12.1 MeV; the summed electric dipole (E1) strength was obtained as $$sum B(E1)uparrow=73.7(23) times 10^{-3} e^2$$ fm$$^2$$. The observed M1 and E1 strengths were compared via random phase approximation calculations using the Skyrme interaction. The effects of 2 particle-2 hole configuration mixing and tensor force on dipole strength distributions were investigated.

Effects of $$gamma$$-ray polarization in NRF-based nondestructive assay of nuclear materials

Omer, M.; Hajima, Ryoichi*; Shizuma, Toshiyuki*; Koizumi, Mitsuo

Proceedings of INMM 58th Annual Meeting (Internet), 7 Pages, 2017/07

Nuclear resonance fluorescence (NRF) is a process in which the electric and/or the magnetic dipole excitations of the nucleus take place. Since these excitations are unique signatures of each nucleus, the NRF provides a practical tool for a non-destructive detection and assay of nuclear materials. Using a polarized $$gamma$$-ray beam, distinguishing the nature of the excitation is straightforward. At a scattering angle of 90$$^{circ}$$, the electric dipole excitations are radiated normal to the polarization plane whereas the magnetic dipole excitations are radiated in the same plane as the incident beam polarization. By contrast, other $$gamma$$-ray interactions with the atom may exhibit different responses regarding the polarization of the incident beam. For example, the elastic scattering is expected to give approximately 60% lower yield in the direction of the incident beam polarization than the other direction. This fact significantly affects the sensitivity of the NRF technique because it is not possible to separate the NRF and the elastic scattering on the basis of the photon energy. We report the results of a photon scattering experiment on $$^{238}$$U using a 100% linearly polarized $$gamma$$-ray beam with an energy of 2.04 MeV. We demonstrate how the elastic scattering responds to the polarization of the incident beam. Accordingly, we are able to resolve the effects of the polarization of incident photon in an NRF measurement.

Proposal for selective isotope transmutation of long-lived fission products using quasi-monochromatic $$gamma$$-ray beams

Hayakawa, Takehito; Miyamoto, Shuji*; Hajima, Ryoichi; Shizuma, Toshiyuki; Amano, So*; Hashimoto, Satoshi*; Misawa, Tsuyoshi*

Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 53(12), p.2064 - 2071, 2016/12

 Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:43.6(Nuclear Science & Technology)

We have proposed a new selective isotope transmutation method using photonuclear reactions with quasi-monochromatic $$gamma$$-ray beams. This method is based on the fact that the particle threshold of a long-lived fission product (LLFP) such as $$^{93}$$Zr, $$^{107}$$Pd, or $$^{79}$$Se is lower than those of stable isotopes of the same chemical element. Therefore, this method has an excellent advantage that LLFPs cannot, in principle, be produced newly even if the target materials include stable isotopes in addition to a LLFP. Laser Compton scattering $$gamma$$-ray sources and neutron capture $$gamma$$-rays in nuclear reactors are candidates for this method.
