In J-PARC neutron source, intense protons (3 GeV,1 MW) pass through a proton-beam window and bombard a Hg target in a target-moderator-reflector-assembly (TMRA). The SS316 target chamber is the most highly activated. Decouplers (Ag-In-Cd (AIC) alloy) are also highly activated. Some neutron extraction holes of Be and AL-coated iron reflector are lined with AIC alloy. A SS316 shield is located outer the TMRA. All these components are cooled by H
O or DO. We estimated the induced-radioactivity of the TMRA components and the cooling water using NMTC/JAM, MCNP4 and DCHAIN-SP. As results, the remote maintenance and massive shields were indispensable. For example, a 30 cm thick Fe cask for the reflector assembly was necessary to attenuate the radiation less than 1 mSv/h. The cask required a 130-ton crane. The AL-coated Fe of the reflector was adopted instead of SS316 resulting in eliminating the high activity of Ni in SS316 and reduction of the cask weight. Based on these results, shielding wall designs and maintenance scenarios of the highly activated components are developed.

Measurement of radioactivity induced by high-energy protons with energy of 2.83 and 24 GeV and spallation neutrons produced by bombarding a mercury target with the high-energy protons were performed by using the AGS (Alternative Gradient Synchrotron) accelerator at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The samples of boron, carbon, aluminum, iron, copper, niobium, mercury-oxide, lead, bismuth, acrylic resin, SS-316, Inconel-625 and Inconel-718 were irradiated around the mercury target. After the irradiation, the radioactivity of each sample was measured by using HPGe detectors at the cooling time between 2 h and 200 d. In the processing of the measured 
-ray spectra, more than 90 radioactive nucleus were identified, and the radioactivity data were obtained. This report gives the experimental procedure, the data processing and the experimental results in detail.

A radioactivity calculation code system DCHAIN-SP was validated in view of the following points: (1) Activation cross section data library for the energy region below 20 MeV. (2) NMTC/JAM code for calculation of the nuclide yield induced by the high energy particles above 20 MeV. (3) DCHAIN-SP code system which treats overall nuclide yield by the high energy particles. 42 of activation cross sections and 22 tritium production cross sections were revised so that the DCHAIN-SP calculation could improve its accuracy within 30% for typical materials irradiated by 14-MeV neutrons. The NMTC/JAM code was improved to implement the GEM model for better estimation of light fragment production. Accuracy of the nuclide yield for proton induced reactions in 10 MeV - 10 GeV still remains in the level of a factor of 2 to 3. The DCHAIN-SP code system was employed for the analysis of time evolution of the radioactivity produced in the samples on a thick mercury target bombarded with 2.83 and 24 GeV protons. It is found that the code system agrees with the measured data by a factor of 2 to 3.

Description is given for the characteristic radiation environment for the High Intensity Proton Accelerator Facility and the design concept of the radiation control system of it. The facility is a large scale accelerator complex consisting of high energy proton accelerators carrying the highest beam intensity in the world and the related experimental facilities and therefore provides various issues relevant to the radiation environment. The present report describes the specifications for the radiation control system for the facility, determined in consideration of these characteristics.

Reliability assessment for the High Energy Particle Induced Radioactivity Calculation Code DCHAIN-SP 2001 was carried out through analysis of integral activation experiments with 14-MeV neutrons. The following three series of experiments conducted at the D-T neutron source facility, FNS, in JAERI were employed: (1) the decay gamma-ray measurement experiment for fusion reactor materials, (2) the decay heat measurement experiment for 32 fusion reactor materials, and (3) the integral activation experiment on mercury.As a result, it was found that the calculations with DCHAIN-SP 2001 predicted the experimental data for (1)
(3) approximately within 30%, 20% and 20%, respectively. It was concluded that the activation cross section data below 20 MeV and the associated decay data as well as the calculation algorithm for solving the Beteman equation that was the master equation of DCHAIN-SP were adequate.
