Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.01(Chemistry, Analytical)An analytical technique was developed to determine the age of uranium particles for safeguards. After the chemical separation of uranium and thorium, the 
Th/
U ratio was measured using single-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and a 
U-based reference material comprising a certain amount of 
Th as a progeny nuclide of U. The results allowed us to determine the purification age of two certified materials, i.e., U-850 and U-100, which was in good agreement with the reference purification age (61 y). Moreover, the age of a single U-850 particle was determined with a difference of -28 to 2 years from the reference date.

Times Cited Count：5 Percentile：96.3(Environmental Sciences)The biological effects of low dose-rate radiation exposures on humans remains unknown. In fact, the Japanese nation still struggles with this issue after the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident. Recently, we have found a unique area in Indonesia where naturally high radiation levels are present, resulting in chronic low dose-rate radiation exposures. We aimed to estimate the comprehensive dose due to internal and external exposures at the particularly high natural radiation area, and to discuss the enhancement mechanism of radon. A car-borne survey was conducted to estimate the external doses from terrestrial radiation. Indoor radon measurements were made in 47 dwellings over three to five months, covering the two typical seasons, to estimate the internal doses. Atmospheric radon gases were simultaneously collected at several heights to evaluate the vertical distribution. The absorbed dose rates in air in the study area vary widely between 50 nGy h
and 1109 nGy h. Indoor radon concentrations ranged from 124 Bq m
to 1015 Bq m. That is, the indoor radon concentrations measured exceed the reference levels of 100 Bq m recommended by the World Health Organization. Furthermore, the outdoor radon concentrations measured were comparable to the high indoor radon concentrations. The annual effective dose due to external and internal exposures in the study area was estimated to be 27 mSv using the median values. It was found that many residents are receiving radiation exposure from natural radionuclides over the dose limit for occupational exposure to radiation workers. This enhanced outdoor radon concentration might be as a result of the stable atmospheric conditions generated at an exceptionally low altitude. Our findings suggest that this area provides a unique opportunity to conduct an epidemiological study related to health effects due to chronic low dose-rate radiation exposure.

Times Cited Count：3 Percentile：42.88(Chemistry, Physical)We prepared biogenic Mn oxides (BMOs) using 
strain KR21-2, and subsequently conducted single or repeated treatment experiments in Cr(NO
) at pH6.0. Under aerobic conditions, newly formed BMOs exhibited a rapid production of Cr(VI) without a significant release of Mn(II), demonstrating that newly formed BMO mediates a catalytic oxidation of Cr(III) with a self-regeneration step of reduced Mn. In anaerobic solution, newly formed BMOs showed a cessation of Cr(III) oxidation in the early stage of the reaction, and subsequently had a much smaller Cr(VI) production with significant release of reduced Mn(II).

Times Cited Count：3 Percentile：57.07(Chemistry, Analytical)The radioactivity of cesium in the water and sediments of two major rivers was measured along with airborne radioactivity in Namie Town, after the recent partial lift on the evacuation order in 2017. The observed concentrations were up to 384 
11 mBq/L for 
Cs in unfiltered water and 1.28 0.09 mBq/m
for Cs in air, while the sediment had a maximum of 44900 23.4 Bq/kg for Cs. The 
Cs/Cs ratios indicate the main origin of the cesium in the sediment to be Unit 1 in good agreement with previous reports on the accident.

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：23.13(Environmental Sciences)After the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, the radiation dose for first responders was not evaluated accurately due to lack of the monitoring data. It has been important to evaluate a radiation dose for workers in emergency response at a nuclear accident. In this study, a new device which can evaluate both of external and internal exposure doses was developed and the performance of various environmental radiation monitors including commercially available monitors were tested and compared from the viewpoint of an environmental monitoring at emergency situation. Background counts of the monitors and the ambient dose equivalent rate were measured in Fukushima Prefecture. The detection limit for beta particles was evaluated by the method of ISO11929. The sensitivity for gamma-rays of the dust monitor using a ZnS(Ag) and a plastic scintillator was high, but that of the external exposure monitor using a silicon photodiode with CsI(Tl) crystal was relatively low. The detection limit ranged 190-280 Bq m at 100 
Sv h, exceeding the detection limit of 100 Bq m in the minimum requirement by the National Regulation Authority in Japan. Use of the shielding with lead is necessary to achieve the minimum requirement. These results indicate that the dust monitor using a ZnS(Ag) scintillator and a plastic scintillator is suitable for the external exposure monitor and the developed internal exposure monitor is for the internal exposure monitor at emergency situation among the evaluated monitors. In the future study, the counting efficiency, the relative uncertainty and the performance of the detection for alpha particles will be evaluated, and it will be considered which type of a monitor is suitable after taking the portability into account.

In general, an -emitter 
At which is a prospective candidate for utilization in targeted alpha radiotherapy is produced through the 
Bi(
He, 2n)At reaction. In contrast, our project is focusing on the production in the Bi(Li, 5n)Rn reaction. This enables us to supply At in a Rn/At generator system. The daughter At (7.2 h half-life) is extracted from the parent Rn (14h), expanding time-frame for transportation and use of At. To use astatine and iodine radioisotopes in our project, the excitation functions of Bi(Li, xn)
Rn, 
Pb(Li, xn)
At and Sn(Li, xn)I reactions have been measured. In addition to that, separation techniques have been developed. We report not only on the production and separation of astatine and iodine radioisotopes in the reactions but also on the utilization of those radioisotopes.

In order to clarify sedimentation behavior of fuel debris during core disruptive accidents in sodium-cooled fast reactors, fundamental experiments were carried out, where solid particles simulating fuel debris were injected into a water pool. Based on the experimental results, sedimentation behavior and bed formation of different particles in properties were characterized.
