Generally, the thermal conductivity values of gases and liquids are dominated by the mean free path of the molecules during translational motion. Herein, we present solid evidence showing the possible contribution of the vibrational behavior of liquid molecules around nanoparticles to increasing these thermal conductivities.

Large-sized dried spikes, called LSD spike, are used as reference material for accountancy analysis for Plutonium and Uranium by Isotope Dilution Mass Spectrometry. LSD spikes preparation is performed each steps as followed (1) Preparing Plutonium and Uranium mix solution, (2) Aliquoting mix solution to vials, and (3) Drying. J-MOX have planned prepared in-house LSD spike and utilized it for accountancy analysis. If LSD spikes are stored for long term, dried material peel off from bottom of vial and it may affect analytical results. In this study, LSD spikes, which have composition suitable for accountancy analysis in J-MOX, had been stored for about 2 years, then long-term stability of LSD spikes had been evaluated.

Ca + 
Pb, 
Ti + Pb, and Ca + 
Cm reactions were successfully measured by using the gas-filled recoil-ion separator GARIS. Fusion barrier distributions were extracted from these data, and compared with the coupled-channels calculations. It was found that the peak energies of the barrier distributions for the Ca + Pb and Ti + Pb systems coincide with those of the 2n evaporation channel cross sections for the systems, while that of the Ca + Cm is located slightly below the 4n evaporation ones. This results provide us helpful information to predict the optimum beam energy to synthesize superheavy nuclei.

and spontaneous-fission decay chains were observed, which would originate from the reaction products of the element 116, 
Lv and 
Lv. Decay properties observed in the chains are in good agreement with the previously published ones. However, one of the chains showed a discrepancy, indicating the new spontaneous-fission branch in 
Cn or the production of the new isotope

By using eddy currents, the SG tube integrity is usually assured during the In-Service Inspection (ISI). During this procedure, the 500 degrees sodium is drained and then SG tubes cooled down slowly in 2 weeks to room temperature. After sodium draining, sodium adheres to SG tubes and other structures in the SG vessel in thin layers. Experimental data shows that sodium drops also appear in specific areas along tubes or tube support plates. The high electrical conductivity of sodium adhering to the outer SG tube surface influences the ECT signal according to sodium layer thickness or sodium deposits located on the outer SG tube surface. The sodium adhering properties depends on several factors among them being the surface roughness of tube material, sodium temperature and wetting time. The ECT effect of sodium adhering to the outer SG tube surface was measured using a small mock-up tank in which were introduced SG tubes similar with the ones in FBR (2.25Cr-1Mo alloy). Defects and support plates were added to tubes and ECT signal was measured before and after sodium draining. Variations in the sodium layer thickness and consequently its ECT effect were measured by filling and draining the tank three times in order to recreate each time new layers of sodium. The paper describes the experimental conditions for defects, SG support plates signal before and after draining of sodium. Additionally, sodium structures were visualized using a CCD camera, confirming the recorded ECT signals. The paper presents details about sodium layer measurements for several parts of the SG tubes by scratching and collecting the sodium on small areas 10x10 square mm. Numerical 3D simulations are performed using a 3D FEM code developed in our laboratory in order to validate the performance of the ECT sensors detection.

An inspection system was developed for in-service inspection (ISI) of pipes in the primary heat transfer system of MONJU FBR. The system was updated and modified based on experience from the pre-service inspection and related tests. This paper describes the results of the functional tests of the new inspection system on a mockup and in MONJU, which confirmed it can satisfy the expected performance.

Zn beam on a 
Bi target. We observed six consecutive decays following the implantation of a heavy particle in nearly the same position in the semiconductor detector, in extremely low background condition. The fifth and sixth decays are fully consistent with the sequential decays of 
Db and 
Lr both in decay energies and decay times. This indicates that the present decay chain consisted of 113, 
Rg (Z = 111), 
Mt (Z = 109), 
Bh (Z = 107), Db (Z = 105), and Lr (Z = 103) with firm connections. This result, together with previously reported results from 2004 and 2007, conclusively leads the unambiguous production and identification of the isotope 113, of the 113th element.
