Times Cited Count：2 Percentile：33.1(Chemistry, Multidisciplinary)Neutron polarization analysis (NPA) for small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments using a pulsed neutron source was successfully achieved by applying a He spin filter as a spin analyzer for the scattered neutrons. The He spin filter covers a sufficient solid angle for performing SANS experiments, and the relaxation time of the He polarization is sufficient for continuous use over a few days, thus reaching the typical duration required for a complete set of SANS experiments. Although accurate evaluation of the incoherent neutron scattering, which is predominantly attributable to hydrogen atoms in samples, is practically difficult using calculations based on the sample elemental composition, the developed NPA approach with consideration of the influence of multiple neutron scattering enabled reliable decomposition of the SANS intensity distribution into the coherent and incoherent scattering components. To date, NPA has not been well established as a standard technique for SANS experiments at pulsed neutron sources. This work is anticipated to greatly contribute to the accurate determination of the coherent neutron scattering component for scatterers in various types of organic sample systems in SANS experiments at J-PARC.

A special committee of "Research on the analysis methods for accident consequence of nuclear fuel facilities (NFF)" was organized by the Atomic Energy Society of Japan under the entrustment of JAEA. The committee aims to research on the state-of-the-art of consequence analysis method for Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) of NFF such as fuel reprocessing and fuel fabrication facilities. The objective is to obtain the useful information related to establishing quantitative performance objectives and to risk-informed regulation through qualifying issues needed to be resolved for applying PSA to NFF. The research activities of the committee were mainly focused on the analysis method of consequences for postulated accidents with potentially large consequence in NFF resulting in release of radio active material to the environment. In this technical report, the research results about basic experimental data and method for safety evaluation for fire and explosion incidents were summarized.

Times Cited Count：29 Percentile：75.69(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)A model that solves simultaneously both the electron and atomic kinetics was used to generate synthetic He
X-ray spectra to characterize a high intensity ultrashort laser driven Ar cluster target experiment. In particular, level populations were obtained from a detailed collisional-radiative model where collisional rates were computed from a time varying electron distribution function obtained from the solution of the zero dimensional Boltzmann equation. In addition, aparticle-in-cell simulation was used to model the laser interaction with the cluster target and provided the initial electron energy distribution function (EEDF) for the Boltzmann solver. This study suggests that the high density plasma contribution to the time-integrated He spectrum was in a highly non-equilibrium state in both the EEDF and the ion level populations and provides a prediction of 5.7 ps for the average cluster integrity time for this high density state.

Times Cited Count：3 Percentile：18.42(Optics)In this work, we present a model that solves self-consistently the electron and atomic kinetics to characterize highly non-equilibrium plasmas, in particular for those systems where both the electron distribution function is far from Maxwellian and the evolution of the ion level populations are dominated by time dependent atomic kinetics. In this model, level populations are obtained from a detailed collisional-radiative model where collision rates are computed from a time varying electron distribution function obtained from the solution of the zero-dimensional Boltzmann equation. The Boltzmann collision term includes the effects of electron-electron collisions, electron collisional ionization, excitation and de-excitation. An application for He spectra from a short pulse laser irradiated argon cluster target will be shown to illustrate the results of our model.

Times Cited Count：24 Percentile：72.16(Physics, Multidisciplinary)The present resonant X-ray scattering has been performed on a monoclinically-split single domain of NaVO. The observation of a critically enhanced contrast between V
and V
ions has led us to the unequivocal conclusion of the charge-order pattern of low-temperature phase of NaVO below 
= 35 K. In spite of the possible four types of configuration of the zig-zag-type charge-order patterns in the 
-plane (A, A', B and B'), the stacking sequence along the 
-axis is determined as the AAA'A' type by comparison with model calculations. By assigning the A and A' configurations to Ising spins, one can reasonably explain the previously discovered "devil's staircase"-type behavior with respect to the modulation of layer-stacking sequences at high pressures and low temperatures, which clearly resembles the global phase diagram theoretically predicted by the ANNNI model.

The dependence of X-ray spectral features and intensity on the incident laser intensity is rather weak, indicating that the 1-2 ps cluster lifetimes limit the number of ions beyond Ne-like Kr that can be produced by collisional ionization. A collisional-radiative model based on the relativistic multiconfigured FAC code has been constructed and used to determine that the cluster plasma has electron densities near 10

Interaction between high-power ultrashort laser pulse and giant clusters (microdroplets) consisting of 10
to 10
atoms is considered. The microdroplet size is comparable to the laser wavelength. A model of the evolution of a microdroplet plasma induced by a high-power laser pulse is developed, and the processes taking place after interaction with the pulse are analyzed. It is shown theoretically that the plasma is superheated: its temperature is approximately equal to the ionization potential of an ion having a typical charge. The microdroplet plasma parameters are independent of the pulse shape and duration. The theoretical conclusions are supported by experimental studies of X-ray spectra conducted at JAERI, where a 100-terawatt Ti-sapphire lasersystem was used to irradiate krypton and xenon microdroplets by laser pulses with pulse widths of 30 to 500 fs and intensities of 610 to 210 W/cm.
