The slow hydrolysis reaction together with the partial decomposition of the starting organic reactants into oxalate and acetate molecules induces the generation of such a large poly-oxo cluster with fourteen uranium centers.

Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:92.82Recently, intensive neutron sources using deuteron accelerator have been proposed for various applications. Accurate and comprehensive deuteron nuclear data library over wide ranges of target mass number and incident energy are indispensable for the design of deuteron accelerator neutron sources. Thus, we have developed an integrated code system dedicated for analysis and prediction of deuteron-induced reactions, which is called DEUteron-induced Reaction Analysis Code System (DEURACS). In the present work, the analysis of reactions is extended to higher incident energy up to nearly 100 MeV and also DEURACS is applied to
reactions at 80 and 100 MeV. The DEURACS calculations reproduce the experimental double-differential cross sections for the
and
reactions well.

For engineering design of deuteron accelerator neutron sources, accurate nuclear data of deuteron-induced reactions on neutron converter (Li, Be, C, etc.) and accelerator structure material (Fe, Cr, Ni, etc.) are indispensable. Therefore we have developed a computational code system based on physics models dedicated for deuteron nuclear data evaluation. In the present study, we have analyzed the reactions on beryllium at incident deuteron energies up to 65 MeV. Since there is a lot of experimental Thick Target Neutron Yields (TTNYs), double-differential
cross sections are calculated by the code system and then are converted to TTNYs. It is found that the calculated TTNYs reproduce the experimental ones fairly well except in the low neutron energy region.

Be,
C, etc., are proposed for applications in various fields. Engineering design of such facilities requires deuteron nuclear data in a broad incident energy range.

C,
Al, and
Ni at incident energies up to 100 MeV. On the other hand, there is few experimental double-differential

The code system is applied to deuteron induced-reactions on Al for incident energies up to 100 MeV. It is found that the spectroscopic factors derived from the present DWBA analysis have incident energy dependence. The calculation using the extended code system reproduced experimental double-differential (d,xp) cross sections at 25.5, 56, and 100 MeV, and production cross sections of

Times Cited Count:12 Percentile:64.7(Physics, Nuclear)The CCONE code has been extended so as to make it possible to calculate the cross sections for deuteron-induced reactions. In the extended CCONE code, elastic breakup and stripping reactions to continuum are calculated using the Continuum-Discretized Coupled-Channels theory (CDCC) and the Glauber model, respectively, and the calculated results are inputted to the CCONE codeas direct reaction components. Statistical decay from compound nuclei formed by nucleon stripping and deuteron absorption is calculated with the exciton and Hauser-Feshbach models implemented in the original CCONE code. The extended CCONE code is applied to analyses of deuteron-induced reactions on Al and
Ni. CDCC calculations for deuteron elastic scattering show good agreement with the experimental data at incident energies of several tens of MeV. The calculated double-differential (

The momentum database enables us to assess a parametric dependency of momentum transport in a wider range of dimensionless parameters related to transport. Such observation will contribute to make a scaling/modeling on momentum transport for future devices like ITER and DEMO. On the other hand, the investigation of a difference in observation by comparing the experimental conditions will give a useful information to realize what plasma parameter is the key for the momentum transport coefficients.

Times Cited Count:22 Percentile:78.38(Physics, Nuclear)Inclusive proton emission from deuteron-induced reactions on various nuclear targets at an incident energy of 100 MeV are analyzed using the CDCC theory for elastic breakup process and the Glauber model for neutron stripping process. Moreover, the phenomenological moving source model is used to estimate evaporation and pre-equilibrium components in inclusive spectra. The calculation reproduces fairly well a prominent bump in experimental
spectra for light and medium nuclei at forward angles of less than 20
, whereas the calculation underestimates the bump component as target atomic number increases. The underestimation is likely to be attributed to the fact that the eikonal approximation used in the Glauber model becomes worse due to strong Coulomb interaction. It is shown that the Glauber model calculation for neutron stripping process leads to improvement of this discrepancy by substituting the eikonal phase shift for the quantum phase shift.

Studied were effects on: plasma rotation and locking; confinement; L-H transition; edge localized mode (ELM) suppression by resonant magnetic perturbations; ELMs and the H-mode pedestal; energetic particle losses; and more. The experiments used a 3-coil mock-up of 2 magnetized ITER TBMs in one ITER equatorial port. The experiments did not reveal any effect likely to preclude ITER operations with a TBM-like error field. The largest effect was slowed plasma toroidal rotation v across the entire radial profile by as much as via non-resonant braking. Changes to global

Here we extend these studies to two particle correlations where one particle is an electron from the decay of a heavy flavor meson and the other is a charged hadron from either the decay of the heavy meson or from jet fragmentation. These measurements provide more detailed information about the interaction between heavy quarks and the quark-gluon matter. We find the away-side-jet shape and yield to be modified in Au+Au collisions compared to

neoclassical tearing mode (NTM) has been observed to strongly degrade confinement and frequently lead to a disruption in high
discharges in DIII-D if allowed to grow to large size. Stabilization of grown NTMs by application of highly localized electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) at the island location has led to operation at increased plasma pressure, up to the no-wall kink limit. After the NTM is stabilized by the ECCD, the correct location for the current drive is maintained using information from real-time equilibrium reconstructions which include measurements from the motional Stark effect diagnostic. This same process is used alternatively to prevent the mode from ever growing, leading to performance at the pressure limit in high performance hybrid discharges with
above 4%. Modeling using the modified Rutherford equation shows that the required power is in close agreement with the experimental threshold for prevention of the 2/1 NTM.
