Times Cited Count:28 Percentile:73.87(Physics, Applied)We demonstrate high conversion efficiency for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emission at 6.5-6.7 nm from multiple laser beam-produced one-dimensional spherical plasmas. Multiply charged-state ions produce strong resonance emission lines, which combine to yield intense unresolved transition arrays in Gd, Tb, and Mo. The maximum in-band EUV conversion efficiency was observed to be 0.8%, which is one of the highest values ever reported due to the reduction of plasma expansion loss.

Times Cited Count:13 Percentile:62.29(Physics, Multidisciplinary)The project of the comprehensive nuclear data research for the development of the advanced reactor systems had been executed successfully by eight organizations from 2005 to 2009. In this project, we constructed the pulsed neutron beamline that was aimed to obtain neutron capture cross-sections of long-lived fission products and minor actinides accurately. The energy spectra, spatial distributions, and pulses of the beam were studied by measurements and simulation calculations, and they were found to be consistent with those of the beamline design. In this paper, we present the overview of the project and the properties of the neutron beam provided by this beam line.

A detailed design for a New Material Nitric Acid Recovery Evaporator was carried out with a plan to use it to replace an already constructed stainless steel Nitric Acid Recovery Evaporator at the Power Reactor and Nuclear Fuel Development Corporation's Tokai Works. Most of the original Evaporator's conditions such as compliance with applicable laws, standards, structure, treatment performance and operating conditions were maintained when designing the new machine. The material is titanium with the addition of 5% tantalum. The Evaporator was designed with an operational life expectance of 10 years. We have calculated that the new Evaporator will have sufficient strength (including a seismatic design) and have the same evaporative performance as the already constructed one. During design, we referred to the results of already completed basic designs (Phase 1) of New Material Nitric Acid Recovery Evaporators, design and production of small-scale test equipment units, and the development of successful joints between different materials. We also considered manufacturing, installation, trial runs, maintenance, and the specifications for materials used for manufacturing, installation, piping and operation of the new Evaporator.

Reduced activation ferritic/martensitic steels (RAFMs) are recognized as the primary candidate structural materials for fusion blanket systems. These steels have been developed based on substantial industrial experience with high chromium heat resistant ferritic/martensitic steels (such as modified 9Cr-1Mo), but with Mo and Nb replaced by W and Ta, respectively. The objective of this paper is to review the R&D status of F82H and to identify the key technical issues for the fabrication of an ITER Test Blanket Module (TBM) suggested by recent achievements in Japan.

Spontaneous fissions of Fm, Fm, and Lr have been measured using an Es target at the JAEA Tandem Accelerator Facility. These three nuclei show different fission properties: the asymmetric fission, the high total-kinetic-energy (TKE) symmetric fission, and the low TKE symmetric fission, and the mechanisms of these three fissions should be very different. It is of great interest to elucidate how these differences occur. We have produced Fm in multinucleon-transfer reactions with a Es target and O projectiles, and produced Lr in the Cm(N,4n) fusion-evaporation reaction. The reaction products were mass-separated with a gas-jet-coupled on-line isotope separator, and were delivered into a rotating wheel alpha- and fission-fragment detection system. By comparing the mass and TKE distributions deduced from the present experimental data, we will discuss the differences in fission mechanism among Fm, Fm, and Lr.

Spontaneous fissions of neutron-rich heavy actinide isotopes Fm, Fm, and Lr have been measured at the JAEA Tandem accelerator facility. Fm and Fm were produced in a multinucleon transfer reaction with an O beam and an extremely rare Es target with a half-life of 276 days. Reaction products were mass-separated with an on-line isotope separator (ISOL). A transition between the typical asymmetric mass distribution and a very sharp symmetric one was clearly observed between Fm and Fm, while the spontaneous fission of Lr was found to exhibit mixture of three different fission modes.

We have studied spontaneous fission of neutron-rich Fm and Lr isotopes. The neutron-rich Fm isotopes were produced with the Es target and the O beam delivered by the JAEA tandem accelerator. The neutron-rich Lr isotope were produced with the Cm target and the N beam. Reaction products were mass-separated with an on-line isotope separator (ISOL), which enabled us to obtain non-contaminated samples and to measure fission fragments precisely. From the deduced fission-fragment mass and total kinetic energy distributions, we have obtained a new insight into the competition between the symmetric and asymmetric fission which is characteristic in this neutron-rich region.

Neutron-rich fermium isotopes Fm and Fm and lawrencium isotope Lr were produced in the multinucleon transfer reaction on Es target with heavy-ion beam and in the heavy-ion fusion reaction on Cm target with N beam, respectively. Reaction products were mass-separated with an on-line isotope separator (ISOL), and spontaneous fission (SF) of these isotopes were measured. It was found that the mass distribution of the SF of Fm was asymmetric, while that of Fm was sharp symmetric, which confirmed the previous experimental results. On the other hand, the SF of Lr seemed to contain both symmetric and asymmetric mass distributions. On the basis of the present results of the mass and total kinetic energy distributions, we discussed the mechanism of fission for these isotopes.
