TRP has stored the plutonium in solution state for long-term since the last PCDF operation in 2007 was finished. After the great east Japan earthquake in 2011, JAEA had investigated the risk against potential hazard of these solutions which might lead to make hydrogen explosion and/or boiling of the solution accidents with the release of radioactive materials to the public when blackout. To reduce the risk for storing Pu solution (about 640 kg Pu), JAEA planned to perform the process operation for the solidification and stabilization of the solution by converted into MOX powder at PCDF in 2013. In order to perform PCDF operation without adaption of new safety regulation, JAEA conducted several safety measures such as emergency safety countermeasures, necessary security and safeguards (3S) measures with understanding of NRA. As a result, the PCDF operation had stared on 28th April, 2014, and successfully completed to convert MOX powder on 3rd August, 2016 for about 2 years as planned.

The beam commissioning of the J-PARC linac started in November 2006 and 181 MeV acceleration was successfully achieved in January 2007. The linac has delivered beams to the 3 GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron for its commissioning, and then, the subsequent Main Ring Synchrotron and the neutron target commissioning. The linac uses a Cs-free LaB
-driven ion source and 20 units of 324 MHz klystrons. As of June 2008, the operation times are about 3,000 and 6,000 hours for the ion source and the RF source, respectively. The operating experience of the linac is described.

This study describes measurements on neutron dose produced by carbon beam, microdosimetric distributions of secondary neutrons produced by 290 MeV/nucleon carbon beams have been measured by using a tissue equivalent proportional counter (TEPC) at the Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba (HIMAC) at the National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS). The ratios of neutrons to charged particle fragments dominated to be 11 to 89 % in the absorbed doses at the side and below the faces of the acrylic phantom (300 mm height 
300 mm width 253 mm thickness).

Since there is a close relationship between the properties of obtained SiC products and pyrolysis condition, it is important to investigate the ceramization process of PVS in order to find out the optimum pyrolysis condition. In this paper, the ceramization process of the PVS cured by 
-ray irradiation at room temperature was investigated by gas analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, density measurement, and so on. It was found that the ceramization of -ray cured PVS starts above 500K, and that drastic organic-inorganic conversion occurs in the temperature range of 700-1100K. According to the results of the changes of mass and density, it was found that the volume shrinkage of PVS during the curing and pyrolysis processes is 80%. The SiC obtained by pyrolysis at 1573K showed the density of 2.50g/cm
and microvickers hardness of 31.6GPa.

Room temperature and liquid nitrogen temperature (77K) were examined as the irradiation temperature. In both cases, the cured PVS maintaining its formed shape could be obtained by -ray irradiation under vacuum, and the cured PVS in solid state at room temperature was obtained by irradiation with dose of above 3-4MGy. It was found that the efficiency of crosslinking in case of the irradiation at room temperature is higher than that in case of irradiation at 77K. The PVS injected into a mold was irradiated by -ray with dose of 3.6MGy at room temperature under vacuum, and pyrolyzed at 1273 K in Ar gas atmosphere. As a result, minute SiC products which had similar shapes to the mold and the sizes of 30-60
m were obtained.

Minute SiC products were synthesized from polyvinylsilane (PVS), which is a liquid organosilicon polymer, with radiation curing. The PVS was injected into molds whose patterns were square and circle with 50m in side or diameter, and 10m in depth. The molds containing the PVS were irradiated by -ray with dose of 3.6MGy at room temperature in vacuum, and heat-treated at 1273K in Ar gas atmosphere. The obtained SiC products had shapes similar to those of the molds, and the sizes of the products were about 30m in side or diameter.

Polyvinylsilane (PVS), a liquid organosilicon polymer at room temperature, is expected to be used as a precursor for SiC product with minute and complex shape. In the synthesis of the SiC product, it is necessary to cure the polymer in order to retain the shape during the pyrolysis. We have used a radiation for curing of the PVS. However, there is a problem that the PVS foams during electron beam irradiation at room temperature. In this report, the curing of PVS by -ray irradiation was examined, and effect of irradiation temperature was studied in order to find out conditions that prevent the foaming of PVS. It was found that the PVS is cured without foaming by the -ray irradiation in both cases of the irradiation temperature at liquid nitrogen temperature (77K) and at room temperature. From the results of measurement of gel fraction and TGA, it was found that the PVS is cured more efficiently by the irradiation at room temperature than at 77K.

Times Cited Count：39 Percentile：77.85(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)A very fine silicon carbide (SiC) fiber with diameter of 6 m, about a half of that of a commercially available SiC fiber, was synthesized from a polymer blend of polycarbosilane (PCS) and polyvinylsilane (PVS). The fine SiC fiber was obtained by optimizing the composition and the spinning temperature of PCS-PVS polymer blends. In order to determine these optimum conditions, the relationship between temperature and melt viscosities of the polymer blends was investigated. As a result, it was found that the optimum spinning temperature range was within a temperature range where the melt viscosity is 5-10Pa
s. Moreover, by blending PVS with PCS, the spinning temperature of the polymer blends was lowered, the spinnability of polymer system was improved, and finer polymer fiber was obtained compared with PCS. The optimum content of PVS in the polymer blend was 15-20wt%.

Silicon carbide (SiC) fiber, which is one of the likeliest candidates as a reinforcement fiber of ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), is synthesized from polycarbosilane (PCS). The diameter of thus SiC fibers is 10-15 m. In order to fabricate CMCs with 3-dimensional complex shapes, it is important to develop a SiC fiber with diameter of less than 10 m, flexibility, and high strength. In order to improve the spinnability of precursor polymer, we have blended polyvinylsilane (PVS), which is a liquid polymer at room temperature, to PCS as a spinning additive. According to relationship between temperature and melt viscosity of the polymer blend, it was found that the polymer can be melt-spun at about 490K, 110K lower than PCS (about 600K), and that the spinnability of the polymer is improved by blending PVS. Fine polymer fiber was obtained from the polymer blend, and finally, very fine SiC fiber with the average diameter of 6 m was synthesized from the PCS-PVS polymer blend.
