A 500-kV photocathode DC electron gun which can supply the beam of a low emittance and a high average current has been developed in collaboration with KEK, JAEA, Hiroshima Univ., Nagoya Univ. and Yamaguchi Univ. The vacuum of the gun chamber has to be lower Extreme High Vacuum for maintain cathode-life time. A titanium chamber and new material of ceramic were employed to reduce outgassing rate. The result of outgassing rate of the gun chamber is described in this report.

Future synchrotron light source using a 5-GeV energy recovery linac (ERL) is under proposal by our Japanese collaboration team, and we are conducting R&D efforts for that. We are developing high-brightness DC photocathode guns, two types of cryomodules for both injector and main superconducting (SC) linacs, and 1.3 GHz high CW-power RF sources. We are also constructing the Compact ERL (cERL) for demonstrating the recirculation of low-emittance, high-current beams using above-mentioned critical technologies.

A newly 500 kV electron gun (2nd - 500 kV gun) for an ERL light source is designed at KEK. A new concept and state of-the-art technologies of vacuum system, ceramic insulators, high voltage power supply, photocathode and preparation system will be employed. The details are described in this report.

Future synchrotron light source based on the Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is expected to be capable of producing super-brilliant and/or ultra-short pulses of synchrotron radiation with a potential of the oscillating type for X-ray free electron laser. We are constructing the R&D machine which is called the compact ERL including the developments of an ultra-low emittance electron gun and superconducting cavities for both the injector and the main linacs under the collaboration between KEK, JAEA, ISSP, and other institutes. In this paper, we report recent progress of the construction for the compact ERL with a repair of a KEK east counter hall.

A large amount of radiocesium (
Cs & 
Cs) were released into the atmosphere as a result of 2011 Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident. To estimate the impact of the accident to the environment, dose rate around FDNPP have been measured by MEXT. Dose rate nearby FDNPP, however, still stay high even though decontamination work was carried out, which means it is necessary to develop an effective decontamination method promptly. Information of depth profile of radiocesium in soil is required to realize it, though, most of measurement methods have trouble due to collection and measurement of soil samples. As we have developed the radiation measurement techniques using unmanned aerial vehicle to measure dose rate distribution over wide areas for years, we attempt to establish the estimation method of depth profile of radiocesium in soil based on characteristics of -ray spectra obtained by airborne radiation monitoring in this paper.

It is difficult to calculate radiocesium inventories in forests, which cover approximately 60% of the land in Fukushima Prefecture. Conversion coefficients (ADCs) are available for estimating radiocesium inventories from air dose rates, but they are supposed to be applied to flat land, and there are no examples of their validation in forests. In this study, surveys were conducted over a wide area in 2011-2021 and a narrow area in 2019 in both virgin lands and forests. Air dose rates, relaxation mass depth (
), and soil radiocesium inventories were obtained at the same locations. ADCs were calculated based on . The estimated radiocesium inventories and soil radiocesium inventories were not significantly different for both land uses, and this was true for both the wide- and narrow-area surveys. Therefore, it is considered that radiocesium inventories can be easily estimated from air dose rates using ADCs even in forests when sufficient time has passed since the accident.
