The objective of this project is to elucidate molecular mechanisms for the induction of radioadaptive response through radiation-induced bystander responses induced by irradiation with heavy ion microbeams in JAEA. We found that the adaptive response was induced by Ar (520 MeV Ar) microbeam-irradiation of a limited number of cells, followed by the broad beam-irradiation and that the adaptive response was almost completely suppressed by the addition of carboxy-PTIO, as a nitric oxide (NO) scavenger. In addition, we found several genes induced specifically and preferentially when radioadaptive response could be induced. We confirmed that expression was specifically induced only when radioadaptive response could be induced. Our findings strongly suggested that radioadaptive response can be induced by NO-mediated bystander responses evoked by irradiation with heavy ion microbeams.

Radiation-induced bystander responses are defined as responses in cells that have not been directly targeted by radiation but are in the neighborhood of cells that have been directly exposed. In this study, we aim to clarify a role of bystander response to sustain the homeostasis of damaged tissue using heavy-ion microbeams. We established the heavy-ion microbeam irradiation method to a 3D cultured human epidermis. Using this method, a viable cell rate of the 3D cultured human epidermis irradiated with 260 MeV Ne-ion microbeams or broadbeams was analyzed by the MTT method.

Times Cited Count:11 Percentile:64.2(Nuclear Science & Technology)The Sn content in a spent nuclear fuel solution was determined by ICP-MS for its inventory estimation in high-level radioactive waste. An irradiated UO fuel was used as a sample to evaluate the reliability of the methodology. Prior to the measurement, Sn was separated from Te, which causes major isobaric interference in the determination of Sn content, along with highly radioactive coexisting elements using an anion-exchange column. The absence of counts attributed to Te in the Sn-containing effluent indicates that Te was completely removed. After washing, Sn retained on the column was readily eluted with 1 M HNO. The isotope ratios of Sn were successfully determined and showed good agreement with those obtained through ORIGEN2 calculations. The results reported in this paper are the first experimental values of Sn content in the spent nuclear fuel solution originating in spent nuclear fuel irradiated at a nuclear power plant in Japan.

Accurate inventory estimation of long-lived fission products (LLFPs) in LWR spent fuels is important for the quality management and for long-term safety assessment of high-level radioactive vitrified wastes. In Japan, ORIGEN2 has been widely used to estimate the fuel compositions. However, equipped library data in the original ORIGEN2 are old and are not validated enough for LLFPs, such as Se, Tc, Sn and Cs, because available post irradiation examination (PIE) data are limited for these nuclides, which have difficulties in radiochemical analyses. For more accurate the estimation, new ORIGEN2 libraries are developed from the latest nuclear data library JENDL-4.0 for cross sections and fission yields, and from other libraries for half-lives, and so on. The new libraries are validated by PIE analyses of the sample fuels irradiated in Cooper, Calvert-Cliffs-1, H. B. Robinson-2, and Ohi-1. As a result, it was found that the new library gives good results for the estimation.

For accurate inventory estimation of long-lived fission products in LWR spent fuels, a new burn-up chain model and decay data based on the latest nuclear data such as JENDL-4.0 was developed. MVP-BURN with the latest nuclear data was applied to several post irradiation examinations including inventory measurements of Se, Tc, Sn and Cs. One of them is a new measurement by JAEA. From the PIE analyses, it is found that the new PIE data obtained by JAEA is consistent with the other PIE data by different laboratory with different techniques. It is also confirmed that the present calculation results show good agreements with experimental ones within about 10% for productions of Se and Cs. In contrast, amounts of Tc and Sn are overestimated by about 50%. These discrepancies are likely due to the effect of insoluble residue produced during sample dissolution and/or errors of fission yields in the analyses.

Inventory estimation of long-lived fission products (LLFPs) in high-level radioactive wastes (HLW) from spent nuclear fuels of light water reactors is important for a safety assessment of their disposal. In order to develop an inventory estimation method of difficult-to-measure LLFPs (Se-79, Tc-99, Sn-126, and Cs-135), a parametric study was carried out by using a sophisticated burnup calculation code and data. In the parametric study, fuel specifications and irradiation conditions are changed in the conceivable range. The considered parameters are fuel assembly types (PWR / BWR), U-235 enrichment, moderator temperature, void fraction, power density, and so on. From the calculated results, we clarify the burnup characteristics of the target LLFPs and their possible ranges of generations. Finally, candidates of the key nuclide are proposed for the scaling factor method of HLW.
