By the nuclear disaster of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), caused by the East Japan earthquake and the following tsunami occurred on March 11, 2011, a large amount of radioactive materials was released from the NPP. In recent years, technologies for autonomous unmanned helicopters (AUHs) have been developed and applied to natural disasters. In expectation of the application of the AUHs to aerial radiation monitoring, we had developed a remote radiation monitoring system. Then, we measured the radiation level by using unmanned helicopter in soil contaminated areas by radioactive cesium emitted from the NPP to evaluate ambient dose-rate distribution around the areas and to investigate the decontamination effect by the measurements before and after decontamination treatment. Here, we reports on the measurement technique and the result.

The neutrino-nucleus reaction cross sections of He and C are evaluated using new shell model Hamiltonians. Branching ratios of various decay channels are calculated to evaluate the yields of Li, Be, and B produced through the -process in supernova explosions. The new cross sections enhance the yields of Li and B produced during the supernova explosion of a 16.2 M star model compared to our previous study by factors of 1.3 and 1.2, respectively. On the other hand, the yield of B decreases by a factor of three. The yields of Li, Be, and the radioactive nucleus Be are found at a level of 10 to 11 M. The temperature of - and -neutrinos inferred from the supernova contribution of B in Galactic chemical evolution models is constrained to be in the range 4.5 MeV to 6.4 MeV. The increase in the Li and B yields due to neutrino oscillations is demonstrated with the new cross sections.

In the meeting, topical physics group meetings of "Coordinating Committee", "Transport and Internal Barrier Physics", "Confinement Database and Modeling", "Edge and Pedestal Physics", "Scrape-off-layer and Divertor Physics", and "Diagnostics" were carried out. In getting many participants from Japan, Europe, Russia, ITER international team and U.S.A., the active discussions were carried out. On the other hand, the topical group members concerned that the contribution from Japan will be decreased if the experimental period of JT-60U is reduced. Here, the outline of discussions in each topical group is reported.

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) is procuring all amounts of NbSn conductors for Central Solenoid (CS) in the ITER project. Before start of mass-productions, the conductor should be tested to confirm superconducting performance in the SULTAN facility, Switzerland. The cable with a shorter twist pitch shows no degradation of Tcs against to electromagnetic load cycles. However, it is difficult to make the cable, because the diameter of the cable with shorter twist pitch is larger and the cable has to compact more. The technology for the cables with STP was developed in Japanese cabling suppliers. The several key technologies and production will be described in this paper.

Japan Atomic Energy Agency is responsible for NbSn Cable-in-Conduit conductors or the Central Solenoid (CS) and the Toroidal Field (TF) coil under the ITER project. Full-size conductor test was performed to confirm performance using SULTAN facility at Switzerland, especially effect of electromagnetic load cycles on the current sharing temperature (Tcs). The original (reference) conductor which had relatively long twist pitch cabling design is called as the normal twist pitch (NTP) conductor. NTP conductor showed Tcs decrease with increasing the number of cycles. By introducing short twist pitch conductor, performance during electromagnetic cycles was improved and concern of Tcs decrease in ITER CS is eliminated. Improvement is understood that shorting pitch of the triplet in the first stage make more engagement of strand providing more stiffness of the cable that prevent strand deformation like buckling observed in the destructive examination of the previous SULTAN sample.

The Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) is responsible for procuring all amounts of Central Solenoid (CS) Conductors for ITER, including CS jacket sections. The conductor is cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) with a central spiral. A total of 576 NbSn strands and 288 copper strands are cabled around the central spiral. The maximum operating current is 40 kA at magnetic field of 13 T. CS jacket section is circular in square type tube made of JK2LB, which is high manganese stainless steel with boron added. Unit length of jacket sections is 7 m and 6,300 sections will be manufactured and inspected. Outer/inner dimension and weight are 51.3/35.3 mm and around 90 kg, respectively. Eddy Current Test (ECT) and Phased Array Ultrasonic Test (PAUT) were developed for non-destructive examination. The defects on inner and outer surfaces can be detected by ECT. The defects inside jacket section can be detected by PAUT. These technology and the inspected results are reported in this paper.
