The electrical performance of a glass-type space solar sheet (G-SSS) was demonstrated in space. G-SSS comprises InGaP/GaAs dual-junction and InGaP/GaAs/InGaAs triplejunction solar cells. It is lightweight solar generation sheet, less than 0.5 mm thick. It is mounted on the "HISAKI" (SPRINT-A) small scientific satellite, which was launched on September 14, 2013. The initial flight data were successfully acquired and this flight demonstration was a world-first experiment for G-SSS using III-V multi-junction thin-film solar cells. The cells demonstrated superior performance and the electrical outputs matched the flight prediction.

Times Cited Count：4 Percentile：66.24(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)To evaluate irradiation behavior of the ROX fuel, irradiation experiment was carried out using 20% enriched U instead of Pu. Three fuels were prepared; a single phase fuel of YSZ containing UO
(U-YSZ), two particle-dispersed fuels of U-YSZ particle in spinel or corundum matrix. The U-YSZ particles were prepared by crashing presintered U-YSZ pellets and by sieving them. These fuels were irradiated in Japan Research Reactor No.3 for 13 cycles, about 300 days. Though many cracks were observed in the pellets by X-ray photographs, significant appearance changes were not observed for all fuel pins. Distribution of typical FPs was analyzed by the 
scanning over the fuel pin. Non-volatile nuclide remained in the fuel pellet. On the other hand, a part of Cs moved to the gaps between the pellets and to the insulators. 
Cs and 
Cs showed different distributions at the plenum. Fuel pellets were taken out from fuel pins without bonding. Spinel decomposition and subsequent restructuring were not observed probably due to low irradiation temperature.

The effect of re-irradiation to these weldaments were evaluated by tensile tests, metallographical observation and hardness test. The result of tensile tests shows that ultimate tensile strength of all joints specimen were almost similar, 0.2% yield strength and total elongation were depend on the irradiation damage and weldaments or not. Therefore, fracture mechanism was not change by re-irradiation. However, brittlement of material was depend on irradiation damage and the property of deformation was sensitive by the effect of irradiation damage or the effect of welding heat.

The innovative basic research concerns the association of basic and technology with high temperature irradiation environments. The direction of research involves novel and bold challenges both in nuclear and non-nuclear fields. The innovative basic research on high-temperature engineering is one of the key subjects using the HTTR as well as other research reactors. The aim of this paper is to describe the preliminary irradiated test conditions such as irradiated fluence, irradiated temperature and installed specimen on the capsules, and also to show the specifications and performances of the apparatus for Post/Ante Irradoation Experiment.

It was success to develop the radiation resistant components using for beam collimator. Turbo molecular pump could be operated more than 15 MGy of ray irradiation dose. Stepping motor developed at JAERI could be operated with good performance in the ray dose of more than 70 MGy. PEEK sheathed cables and connector have kept good performance during ray irradiation more than the dose of 10 MGy. It was cleared that the function of the heat pipe disappeared at 30 kGy ray irradiation dose.

Times Cited Count：2 Percentile：87.23(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The turbo molecular pump which can be operated exposed to high radiation has been developing at JAERI and Osaka Vacuum Ltd., because it is planed to use this turbo molecular pump for the 3GeV-RCS of the J-PARC project. The goal of irradiation dose is 30 MGy because the cumulative energy dose due to radiation is approximately estimated to be on the order of 100 MGy for 30 years of the 3GeV-RCS operation. In order to know radiation damage of turbo molecular pump, gamma-ray irradiation experiment has been performed at JAERI. The turbo molecular pump could operate properly less than 3.5 MGy absorption dose under gamma-ray irradiation environment. Since the elongation of elastomer vacuum seals became small due to exposed to radiation, this radiation damage of elastomer seals causes leak. The turbo molecular pump components except the elasomer seals, for example motor coil, control sensor, and etc, have kept high performance more than 7 MGy absorption dose. The turbo molecular pump without elastomer seals has been developed and the irradiation test will be started form April.

The improved mechnical sensor, jB has been desiged and developed. Materials of a load cell (strain gauge and sensor beam) and sensing coil/frame are selected to be neutron resistance. In order to reduce temperature drift of the sensor signal, four strain gauges with the same electrical property and geometrical size are bonded on the sensor beam by AlO spraying process. These gauges form an electrical bridge circuit. The zero-level drift of the output of the load cell was reduced to about 1/20 compared with the old sensor. Non-linearity of the output of load cell and sensitivity of the jB sensor was observed. The deviation of sensitivity from the fitting line was less than 7 % in high magnetic field region. The sensitivity of the sensor was gradually decreased by about 30 % at neutron fluence of (1.8
