Beryllium-10 (Be) of a cosmogenic nuclide precipitates in forms of BeO and Be(OH)
attaching with aerosol on the Earth surface. It is accumulated on the sea- and lake-bottoms. Recently, the meteoric Be is attracting attention as a powerful tool for investigating the past climate change, because it is affected by the earth- and lorcal- cyclical changes of materials such as atmosphere and water circulation. The Be exists mostly as hydroxide at pH 
5, and is easy to adhere to soil and mineral surface. Therefore, Be concentration in sediment could be influenced by its grain size composition because fine-grained sediment has a big surface area per unit mass. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between Be concentrations and the grain-size of river sediments. The samples used were bottom-sediments of 18 rivers flowing into Lake Biwa, Japan. The sediments were sieved to 5 fractions and analyzed each for Be concentration by JAEA-AMS-TONO.

Liquid-liquid extraction of rare-earth (RE) cations has been investigated using 
-dodecyldiglycolamic acid (C
DGAA) with a secondary amide group, and compared with that using 
-dioctyldiglycolamic acid (DODGAA) with a tertiary amide group. CDGAA enables quantitative transfer of all RE cations from moderately acidic solution, while being selective toward the heavier RE cations, and performs better than typical carboxylic-acid-type extractants. However, CDGAA provides low extraction performance and separation ability for RE cations compared with DODGAA because of the weaker basicity of the amide oxygen. Slope analysis demonstrated that RE
transfer with CDGAA proceeded through a proton-exchange reaction, forming a 1:3 complex, RE(CDGAA)
. Structural characterization by X-ray diffraction revealed that three -butyldiglycolamic acid (C
DGAA) molecules coordinated to the La central ion in a tridentate fashion and the La primary coordination sphere consisted of three oxygen atoms from the amide group, three oxygen atoms from the ether group, and three oxygen atoms from the carboxy group.

] = 0.003 M. The result clearly demonstrates that the fluoro complex formation of Db is significantly different from that of the group-5 homologue Ta in the 6th period of the periodic table while the behavior of Db is similar to that of the lighter homologue Nb in the 5th period.

Corrosion of structural materials is one of the serious problems when lead-bismuth eutectic alloy (LBE) is used as a coolant material in next generation nuclear systems. In this study, dissolution experiments of synthetic Fe-Cr-Al alloys and developed super ODS steel candidates into LBE under several partial pressures of oxygen were conducted. Dissolution behaviors of major components in such steels into LBE were investigated. Interfacial behavior between LBE and steels was also observed. In addition, partial potential diagrams of the Fe-Cr-Al-O system at several conditions were established as basic data. From the potential diagrams, the partial pressure range of oxygen was estimated for the stable protective oxide layer formation at the interface. At lower oxygen partial pressure than the pressure that is enough for the formation of the stable oxide layer, a rough oxide layer was formed at the interface in all samples, and the alloy elements dissolved into LBE through it. On the other hand, at the oxygen partial pressure to form stable oxide layer, a dense and very thin oxide layer was formed especially on the higher aluminum content steel, preventing the alloy dissolution into LBE. From the results, aluminum and chromium content in steel were very important for preventing the corrosion by LBE.

Lead-Bismuth eutectic alloy (LBE) has been considered as a prospective coolant for a fast-breeder reactor, but a corrosion of cooling pipe is anticipated when it is used. In the previous study, the solubility of major metallic elements, such as Fe, Cr and Ni, into LBE was measured under extra low oxygen potential. The interactive effect of those elements on the solubility was also examined. However, it is thought that an oxide layer is formed on the surface of the cooling pipe and influences on the corrosion of the pipe. In this year, the measurement of the solubility of major elements of steel into lead-bismuth alloy through Fe-Cr complex oxide was started. In addition, the thermodynamics of the Pb-Bi-O system at 800 K was investigated and the phase diagram of the system was determined. From the above results, the stability diagram of the Pb-Bi-O system was established.

Lead-Bismuth eutectic alloy(LBE) has been considered as a prospective coolant for a fast-breeder reactor. However a corrosion of the structual material is anticipated when it is used at the similar temperature as sodium coolant. In this study, solubility of major metallic elements in LBE is measured under extra low oxygen potential. The interactive effect of those elements on the solubility is also to be examined. Based on the results of JFY2001, measurements of the solubility of iron in LBE at 1273 K were conducted where the partial pressure of oxygen was controlled by using two equilibrium methods: the oxide equilibrium method and the gas equilibrium method. Analytical condition of oxygen content in LBE was also determined. Several solubility data were obtained. However it was not yet enough to do thermodynamic consideration. From the above results, following subjects were extracted for JFY2003 study. (1)To accumulate the solubility data of iron and oxygen in LBE and to consider them thermodynamically. (2)To obtain the solubility data of the other composition element of stainless steels and to evaluate mutual influence of them.

Dubnium-262 was produced in the Cm(F, 5n) reaction at the JAEA tandem accelerator. Reaction products were rapidly transported by a He/KF gas-jet system to the chemistry laboratory. Anion-exchange behavior of Db in HF/HNO solution was then investigated using the newly developed on-line ion-exchange and 
-particle detection apparatus. Distribution coefficients of Db were clearly smaller than those of Ta, the closest homologue in the periodic table, and were close to those of lighter homologue Nb and also the pseudo homologue Pa. Fluoride complex formation of Db will be discussed.

We have investigated the chemical behavior of Db together with its group-5 homologues by anion-exchange chromatography in HF/HNO mixed solution using a rapid online chemical apparatus (AIDA-II). The nuclides Db, 
Nb and 
Ta were produced in the Cm(F, 
n), 
Ge(F, 
n) and Gd(F, n) reactions, respectively, at the JAEA tandem accelerator. On-line anion-exchange separations of Db, Nb and Ta were performed using the AIDA-II. Thousand times of anion-exchange separations were conducted using AIDA-II. events were registered, and the 
values for Db was evaluated. From these results, the adsorption sequence Pa 
Db Nb 
Ta was determined. The present result shows a notable difference in the adsorption behavior between Db and its homologue Ta. In the conference, the present status and the perspective of the aqueous chemistry of Db at JAEA will be also presented.

The extraction behavior of trivalent actinides (Am, Cm, Cf, Es, and Fm) into di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid, HDEHP, in benzene from HNO was studied together with lanthanides. The extraction constants, 
values, of lanthanides, Am, Cm, Cf, and Es were determined by a batch method using stable lanthanide isotopes and radiotracers of 
Am, 
Cm, 
Cf, and 
Es, respectively, while that of Fm was measured with 
Fm which was produced in the 
U(
O,4n) reaction and was on-line supplied by a gas-jet method at the AVF cyclotron of RCNP, Osaka University. The values were determined by the slope analysis for the variation of the distribution ratio as a function of the concentration of HDEHP. We found that the of Fm is smaller than that of Dy in spite of the similar ionic radii while those of other actinides are almost the same as those of each lanthanide with a similar ionic radius.
