In order to evaluate the accuracy of the iron data in the latest nuclear data libraries (FENDL-3.2b, JENDL-5, ENDF/B-VIII.0 and JEFF-3.3) used in the fusion neutron source design, we performed their benchmark tests by using QST/TIARA iron experiment with quasi mono-energy neutrons of 40 and 65 MeV and JAEA/FNS iron experiment with DT neutrons. From the test results, we have found the following issues; (1) The calculation results with FENDL-3.2b underestimate the measured neutron fluxes of the continuous energy range (10-60 MeV) by a factor of 0.6 in the TIARA experiment with 65 MeV neutrons; (2) The calculation results with FENDL-3.2b tend to underestimate the measured neutron flux above 10 MeV by a factor of 0.8 at depth of 70 cm and overestimate the measured ones below 10 keV by a factor of 1.3 up to depth of 40 cm in the FNS experiment. We investigated those issues in detail and clarified their reasons.

A beryllium integral experiment with DT neutrons at JAEA/FNS was performed 35 years ago. Various analyses of the experiment have shown that calculated reaction rates of the 
Li(n,
)T, 
Au(n,
)
Au and 
U(n,fission) reactions, which are sensitive to low energy neutrons, overestimate the measured ones. Recently, European Spallation Neutron Source (ESS) group presented that the thermal scattering law data of beryllium change depending on crystallite domain size of beryllium metal due to the extinction effect. If the data are applied to the analysis of the FNS beryllium integral experiment, the overestimation problem may be solved. However, crystallite domain size of beryllium block used in the experiment has not been measured. Here, it was measured as 27.3
1.7 
m with the method based on ASTM E112-13. Then the FNS beryllium integral experiment was re-analyzed based on the data.

The following benchmark experiments were selected: JAEA/FNS in-situ experiments, Osaka Univ./OKTAVIAN TOF experiments, ORNL/JASPER sodium experiments, NIST iron experiment and QST/TIARA experiments. These experiments were analyzed with MCNP and nuclear data libraries (JENDL-5, JENDL-4.0 or JENDL-4.0/HE, ENDF/B-VIII.0 and JEFF-3.3). The analysis results demonstrate that JENDL-5 is comparable to or better than JENDL-4.0 or JENDL-4.0/HE, ENDF/B-VIII.0 and JEFF-3.3.

Fusion neutron skyshine experiment have been carried out at the FNS(Fusion Neutronics Source) facility of Japan Atomic Energy Research and Institute. In this experiment, the skyshine port located just above the tritium target from which fusion neutron produced was open and the radiation dose rate of skyshine neutron that went out through the skyshine port was measured as far as about 550 m away from the tritium target with a spherical rem-counter. The measured neutron dose rate was compared with the calculation value by Monte Carlo simulation code MCNP-4B and a simple line source model.

Times Cited Count：11 Percentile：57.03(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The neutron penetration and the activation characteristics of the boron-doped low activation concrete were investigated for irradiation of 2.45 and 14 MeV neutrons. The shielding property of the 2 wt% boron-doped low activation concrete is superior to that of the 1 wt% boron for the thermal neutron, on the contrary to the no clear difference for the fast neutron. The total activity detected in the boron-doped low activation concrete was about one hundredth of that in the geostandard sample at more than 30 days cooling time. The total activity of the boron-doped concrete by major nuclei does not depend on the boron density for the 14 MeV neutron irradiation.
