Neutron beam, being electrically neutral and highly penetrating, offers unique advantages for irradiation of biological species such as plants, seeds, and microorganisms. We comprehensively investigated the potential of neutron irradiation for inducing genetic mutations using simulations of J-PARC BL10, JRR-3 TNRF, and KUANS for spallation, reactor, and compact neutron sources.

The Japan Atomic Energy Agency's research reactor, JRR-3, resumed operations on February 26, 2021, after nearly a decade. As a shared-use facility, JRR-3 is operated to accommodate external users as well. The procedures, from research proposal submissions to final report submissions, are conducted through the online system JRR-3 RING (Research Information NaviGator) (https://jrr3ring.jaea.go.jp/). RING enables integrated management of proposal submissions, schedule adjustments, data sharing, and report submissions, and it has been upgraded in preparation for the resumption of JRR-3 operations. RING is specifically designed to enhance the convenience of beamline users, featuring simplified application processes, improved flexibility in schedule coordination, and enhanced data management capabilities. With the implementation of this system, users can conduct their research more efficiently and securely. Moving forward, JRR-3 aims to expand its role as a platform for neutron research, accessible to a diverse range of researchers both domestically and internationally. The resumption of operations and the expansion of RING mark a significant step toward revitalizing neutron research and fostering collaboration with industries and academia.

The Department of Research Reactor and Tandem Accelerator is in charge of the operation, utilization and technical development of JRR-3 (Japan Research Reactor No.3), NSRR (Nuclear Safety Research Reactor), Tandem Accelerator, Radio Isotope Production Facility, and TPL (Tritium Process Laboratory). It is also responsible for the decommissioning of JRR- 4 (Japan Research Reactor No.4) and the management of JRR-1 (Japan Research Reactor No.1) and FEL (Free Electron Laser). This annual report describes the activities of our department in fiscal year of 2023. We carried out the operation and maintenance, utilization, upgrading of utilization techniques, decommissioned JRR-4, safety administration, international cooperation and human resources development. Also contained are lists of publications, meetings, granted permissions on laws and regulations concerning atomic energy, outcomes in service and technical developments and so on.

In order to obtain accurate information on the elemental composition in a sample, it is very important to select an appropriate analytical method, and it is necessary to have a correct understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of each analytical method. This paper introduces prompt gamma-ray analysis as an unusual method that is different from elemental analysis methods that readers may be familiar with, and explains what makes it different from well-known analysis methods. The research on cultural properties conducted with the prompt gamma-ray analysis system (PGA) and future developments will also be described.

Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:91.17(Geochemistry & Geophysics)The 15 elements including most major elements of 12 carbonaceous chondrites collected in Antarctica were quantified using neutron-induced prompt gamma-ray analysis. While some of these samples were observed to share affinities with CI or CM chondrites, they do not exhibit the same characteristics as the known CI or CM chondrites. As a result, a new group named "CY" has been proposed for these meteorites. Common among the 12 meteorites is the depletion of volatile elements H and chlorine, showing a correlation and being depleted compared to non-Antarctic CI levels. Based on the abundance of moderately volatile elements Mn and S, the 12 meteorites can be divided into two groups: one with levels similar to non-Antarctic CI and the other with intermediate levels between CI and CM. These results suggest that CY chondrites originate from distinct parent bodies (materials), and considering two different parent bodies (materials) is necessary.

During the soft-templating process, unique cylindrical supramolecular assemblies form from the copolymer template, distinct from other systems reported thus far. This peculiar nanostructuring takes place due to the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) segments on both the Pluronic template and the PEG- grafted lignin derivative (glycol lignin). A large increase in CO uptake occurs on the resulting large-pore mesoporous carbon at 270 K close to the saturation pressure, owing to capillary condensation.
