The Compton camera was improved for use with the unmanned helicopter. Increase of the scintillator array from 44 to 88 and expanse of the distance between the two layers contributed to the improvements of detection efficiency and angular resolution, respectively. Measurements were performed over the riverbed of the Ukedo river of Namie town in Fukushima Prefecture. By programming of flight path and speed, the areas of 65 m 60 m and 65 m 180 m were measured during about 20 and 30 minutes, respectively. By the analysis the air dose rate maps at 1 m height were obtained precisely with the angular resolution corresponding to the position resolution of about 10 m from 10 m height. Hovering flights were executed over the hot spot areas for 10-20 minutes at 5-20 m height. By using the reconstruction software the -ray images including the hot spots were obtained with the angular resolution same as that evaluated in the laboratory (about 10).

We are attempting to reveal uplift and denudation history of the Yoro-Suzuka-Nunobiki mountains, southwest Japan, by using apatite fission-track thermochronology. The mountains are distributed along the tectonic boundary of the reverse-fault dominant Kinki district and strike-slip fault dominant Chubu district, being an important region to understand the Quaternary tectonics of the southwest Japan inner zone. We are planning to reconstruct uplift and denudation history of the mountains in the past few million years and discuss its geomorphological and tectonic implications.

Material and Life science experimental facility (MLF) of J-PARC center have started user program in which experiments using pulsed neutron beam are available from December 2008. The source power of the pulsed spallation neutron source JSNS is gradually increasing and now reached 120 KW, where its final goal is 1 MW. With increasing the neutron source power, the number of user programs is also increasing. In this situation, a 5-years project, which aims at higher efficient utilization of neutrons in neutron scattering research, have started since 2008 in Japan. Six Japanese institutes join this project, and neutron optical devices including He spin filters, neutron imaging device and neutron scattering method are being developed. In this paper, we report the current status of optical devices development and application and future perspective in Japan.
