At the time of accident, about 270 tons of fuel were in Units 1- 3 at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. Up to that time, material accountancy was implemented as an item facility for adequate material control and for the International Atomic Energy Agency's safeguards verification. Fuel debris contains nuclear fuel materials, fission products and structural materials, etc. Fuel debris will need to be controlled adequately after removal from the reactors, but material accountancy measures as an item facility no longer can be applied because of meltdown of the fuel. Development of measurement technologies for fuel debris may be required for adequate material control and accountancy of special nuclear material in the fuel debris at Fukushima Daiichi. Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) and United States Department of Energy/National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE/NNSA) have agreed to collaborate to investigate past experience on material control at severe accidents involving reactor core fuels and potential measurement technologies for fuel debris measurement. Besides DOE/NNSA and JAEA, Japanese Government, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry (CRIEPI) and the U.S. National Laboratories have been collaborating in this effort. This paper describes the purpose, objectives, structure and process of this collaboration.

In order to survey technologies to be developed for nuclear material quantification of fuel debris at 1F, Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) and United States Department of Energy (DOE) started collaborative research from November 2012. Under the collaborative research, three Working Groups, Neutron Working Group (NWG), Gamma Working Group (GWG) and Source Term Working Group (STWG) were established. The roles of GWG are to identify measurement systems that could be studied further for possible implementation at 1F. Candidate $$gamma$$ measurement technologies are $$gamma$$ Gross Counting, $$gamma$$ Dosimetry, $$gamma$$-ray Spectroscopy, $$gamma$$-ray Densitometry, $$gamma$$-ray Imaging, Transmission (X-ray) Radiography, Prompt Fission $$gamma$$-ray Counting and Spectroscopy, and Neutron Induced $$gamma$$-ray Spectroscopy. Taking into account system cost, system size, measurement time, development period, and potential for applicability to fuel debris, GWG members have identified recommended combinations among the $$gamma$$ technologies supplemented with neutron measurement technologies. The evaluation was carried out by literature search and simulation works. This paper provides recommendations of the GWG for measurement systems based on mainly $$gamma$$ measurement technologies for nuclear material accountancy of fuel debris at 1F.
