Injecting high-energy heavy ions in the electronic stopping regime into solids can create cylindrical damage zones called latent ion tracks. Although these tracks form in many materials, none have ever been observed in diamond, even when irradiated with high-energy GeV uranium ions. Here we report the first observation of ion track formation in diamond irradiated with 2-9 MeV C
fullerene ions. Depending on the ion energy, the mean track length (diameter) changed from 17 (3.2) nm to 52 (7.1) nm. High resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy (HR-STEM) indicated the amorphization in the tracks, in which 
-bonding signal from graphite was detected by the electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS).

Aramid fiber-reinforced plastic (AFRP) has been developed as a structural material that has the advantages of light weight and high strength. In this study, tensile tests were carried out to measure the tensile properties of AFRP rod on the market for reinforcement of concrete at room temperature, 77 K and 4.2 K. Especially at cryogenic temperatures, it is difficult to perform a tensile test of the bar because the specimen slips through the jig grip. To prevent the rod from slipping, tensile tests were carried out with some filling conditions. The applicable and appropriate tensile test conditions were established by modifying the jig grip, treating the surface of the rod and using cryogenic epoxy infill to grip the rod. They were more than 1100 MPa. Additionally, the AFRP rod included a temperature dependence in which the Young's modulus increased as the test temperature decreased. It was confirmed that the Young's modulus increased because aramid fiber was more dominant than epoxy.

Three electrostatic accelerators at TIARA were operated on schedule in fiscal year 2012 except changing its schedule by cancellations of users. The yearly operation time of the 3 MV tandem accelerator, the 400 kV ion implanter and the 3MV single-ended accelerator were in the same levels as the ordinary one, whose operation time totaled to 2,073, 1,847 and 2,389 hours, respectively. The tandem accelerator had no trouble, whereas the ion implanter and the single-ended accelerator stopped by any troubles for one day and four days, respectively. The molecular ion beam of helium hydride was generated by the ion implanter, because the users required irradiation of several cluster ions in order to study the effect of irradiation. As a result, its intensity of beam was 50 nA at 200 kV. The ion beam of tungsten (W) at 15 MeV was accelerated by the tandem accelerator, whose intensity was 20 nA at charge state of 4+, because of the request from a researcher in the field of nuclear fusion.

The three electrostatic accelerators at the TIARA had no mechanical damage when the Tohoku earthquake happened on March 11, 2011. But, they could not be operated during April, due to the influence of planned power outage by TEPCO. These accelerators additionally operated on Saturday for ten days in order to compensate for the lost experiment time. As a result, the yearly operation time had kept the same level as the ordinary one. The ion beam of erbium (Er) with 11.7MeV was accelerated newly by the tandem accelerator, whose intensity was 20nA at charge state of 3+. The sequential generation/irradiation of two different kinds of fullerene ions was achieved at the ion implanter by a mixed powder method without exchange of the Freeman type ion source by the user's request.

The three electrostatic accelerators at TIARA had no damage when the Tohoku earthquake happened on March 11, 2011. But, they could not be operated until end of April, due to the influence of planned power outage and keep out into the controlled area for radiation. These accelerators additionally operated on Saturday for twelve days in order to compensate for the lost experiment time. Therefore, the yearly operation time had kept the same level as the ordinary one. The tandem accelerator has stopped leakage of the SF
gas from the base flange on the tank by the Viton gasket of rectangular cross section at the new type.

Three electrostatic accelerators of TIARA were operated smoothly in FY 2010, and all the planned experiments were carried out except those canceled by users or the impact of Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011. On the other hand, Saturday operation for experiments was carried out after October on the Global Nuclear-Human Resource Development Initiative. The yearly operation time of the tandem accelerator, the single-ended accelerator and the ion implanter amounted to 2116, 2367 and 1800 hours, respectively, which were similar to those of usual years. Regarding the single-ended accelerator, the generator in the high-voltage terminal failed and was replaced with new one. A switching magnet was installed for a new branch beam line of the ion implanter. As to the tandem accelerator, In ion was generated and accelerated at intensity of 500 nA.

The yearly operation time of three electrostatic accelerators at TIARA of Japan Atomic Energy Agency is keeping the same level since 2000, the tandem accelerator, the ion implanter and the single-ended accelerator amounted to about 2000, 1900 and 2500 hours, respectively. Three electrostatic accelerators did not have damage when the Tohoku Earthquake occurred on March 11, 2011. However, these accelerators were not able to operate during the planned power outage by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). The tandem accelerator accelerated ion beam of In, which gave intensity of 500nA with stability. Additionally, the ion implanter generated maximum 400nA at ion beam of Gd, which was used in experiments for the users.

Three electrostatic accelerators of TIARA were operated smoothly in FY 2009, and all the planned experiments were carried out except those canceled by users. The yearly operation time of the tandem accelerator, the single-ended accelerator and the ion implanter amounted to 2100, 2416 and 1866 hours, respectively. Regarding the single-ended accelerator, the radio frequency oscillator of the ion source mounted in high-voltage terminal and the sequencer for control of the SB beam line failed, and they were replaced. The oven controller of Freeman ion source of the ion implanter was renewed. As to the tandem accelerator, Mn ion was successfully generated and accelerated with intensity of 150 nA.

Operation times of each accelerator are keeping the same level as in recent 10 years, Tandem accelerator, Single-ended and Ion implanter amounted to about 2,000, 2,500 and 1,900 hours, respectively. In the last fiscal year, we succeeded in maintaining the terminal voltage of the tandem accelerator to high stability for long periods by exchanging the material of a corona-probe needle to the tungsten (NPS Co.). In the ion-implanter, the oven control system equipped with the Freeman ion source was renewed. There was no trouble to affect on the machine-time in the last fiscal year, so the all planned experiments were carried out.
