Flerovium (Fl, element 114) is the heaviest element chemically studied so far. The first chemical experiment on Fl suggested that Fl is a noble-gas-like element, while the second studies suggested that Fl has a volatile-metal-like character. To obtain more reliable conclusion, we performed further experimental studies on Fl adsorption behavior on Si oxide and gold surfaces. The present results suggest that Fl is highly volatile and less reactive than the volatile metal, Hg, but has higher reactivity than the noble gas, Rn.

Multi-stepwise pulse calorimetry for accurate, efficient measurements of thermophysical properties over a wide temperature range

Watanabe, Hiromichi*; Morimoto, Kyoichi; Watanabe, Masashi; Kato, Masato; Arita, Yuji*; Konashi, Kenji*

Thermochimica Acta, 693, p.178763_1 - 178763_6, 2020/11

Multi-stepwise pulse calorimetry is proposed for accurate, efficient measurements of thermophysical properties of not only ideal but also practical samples over a wide temperature range. In a single experiment for a few seconds, the sample is rapidly heated from 298 K up to the final step-temperature of around 2850 K in a multi-stepwise fashion with numerous step-temperatures, at each of which the sample attains a steady-state condition while it is maintained for an instant. The proposed calorimetry is suitable for measuring enthalpy at numerous different temperatures, because multiple enthalpy-change values between the brief steady-state conditions can be obtained in a single experiment. As a feasibility demonstration, the specific enthalpy and its uncertainty in the temperature range 10502850 K have been determined for Mo and W, respectively. The measured enthalpies and emissivities are compared with the corresponding standard data.

Online gas-solid adsorption studies with single atom quantities of Hg, Tl, and Pb on SiO $_{2}$ and Au surfaces were carried out using short-lived radioisotopes with half-lives in the range of 4-49 s. This is a model study to measure adsorption enthalpies of superheavy elements Cn, Nh, and Fl. The short-lived isotopes were produced and separated by the gas-filled recoil separator TASCA at GSI. The products were stopped in He gas, and flushed into gas chromatography columns made of Si detectors whose surfaces were covered by SiO $_{2}$ or Au. The short-lived Tl and Pb were successfully measured by the Si detectors with the SiO $_{2}$ surface at room temperature. On the other hand, the Hg did not adsorb on the SiO $_{2}$ surface, but adsorbed on the Au surface. The results demonstrated that the adsorption properties of short-lived Hg, Tl, and Pb could be studied with this setup, and that this method is applicable to the experiment for Cn, Nh, and Fl.

A new experimental method "vacuum chromatography" has been developed to measure adsorption enthalpy of superheavy elements, and its feasibility has been examined using short-lived thallium isotopes. The short-lived thallium isotopes were produced at the JAEA tandem accelerator. The thallium ion beam prepared with an on-line isotope separator which ionized and mass-separated the thallium isotopes was injected into an isothermal vacuum chromatography apparatus. A temperature-dependent adsorption property of thallium atom on SiO $_{2}$ surface were measured. The adsorption enthalpy of thallium was determined to be 158 kJ/mol. The thallium is a homolog of element 113. Thus, the vacuum chromatography developed in this study enables us to perform chemical experiments for short-lived superheavy elements with half-lives of a order of one second.

Results from power burst tests, GK-1 and GK-2, conducted at the NSRR, are summarized. The tests were performed on a 1414 PWR fuel rod irradiated to a burnup of 42 MWd/kgU in the Genkai unit #1 of Kyushu Electric Power Co., Inc. The instrumented test fuel rod in a double-container-type capsule was subjected to the pulse-irradiation with stagnant water cooling condition at 0.1 MPa and 293 K. Deposited energy and peak fuel enthalpy were 505 J/g and 389 J/g in the Test GK-1, and 490 J/g and 377 J/g in the Test GK-2, respectively. During the pulse-irradiations, DNB occurred and the cladding surface temperature reached 581 K and 569 K in the Tests GK-1 and -2, respectively. The maximum cladding hoop strain was 2.7% in the Test GK-1 and 1.2% in the Test GK-2. However, the test fuel rods did not fail. Estimated fission gas releases during the pulse-irradiations were 11.7% and 7.0% in the Tests GK-1 and -2, respectively.

Evaluation of thermal efficiency to produce hydrogen through the IS process by thermodynamics

Thermal efficiency to produce hydrogen from water through the IS process was evaluated by a viewpoint of thermodynamics. Thermal efficiency is decided by a temperature from a heat source and limited by the works calculated by the Carnot efficiency for any hydrogen production methods. The maximum thermal efficiency is 81.3% for a thermal cycle between 1123K and 733K. The thermal efficiency of the IS process was evaluated by G-T diagrams of each reactions and separation processes. The maximum value is 78.2% without considering the works for separations of acids from water. However, the effects of the works for separations on thermal efficiency are essential for the IS process, because Gibbs energies of separations of acids from water are always positive. The thermal efficiency could be changed from 53.5% to 76.6% by the calculation with or without the separation processes.

Research on the plutonium rock-like oxide (ROX) fuels and their once-through burning in light water reactors has been performed to establish an option for utilizing and disposing effectively the excess plutonium. The ROX fuel is a sort of the inert matrix fuels and consists of mineral-like compounds such as yttria stabilized zirconia, spinel and corundum. A particle-dispersed fuel was devised to reduce damage by heavy fission fragments. Some preliminary results on swelling, fractional gas release and microstructure change for five ROX fuels were obtained from the irradiation test and successive post-irradiation examinations. Inherent disadvantages of the Pu-ROX fuel cores could be improved by adding 238U or 232Th as resonant materials, and all improved cores showed a nearly the same characteristics as the conventional UO2 core during transient conditions. The threshold enthalpy of the ROX fuel rod failure was found to be comparable to the fresh UO2 rod by pulse-irradiation tests simulating reactivity initiated accident conditions.
