1 - Differential experiments: - Charged particle emission DDX - Gamma-ray production cross section - (n,2n) reaction cross section with a beam source - Integral experiments: - Leakage gamma-ray spectra from slabs - Secondary gamma-ray skyshine Fusion Neutronics Activity at Osaka University in 1999-2000

2 Measurements of double differential cross sections for charged particle emission reactions by 14 MeV neutrons Samples: nat Si and 19 F Facility:OKTAVIAN, pulsed neutrons Machine time:4 weeks in 2000 Method:2-dimensional analysis of energy and time-of- flight (E-TOF) Remarks:Bayes’ estimation method was successfully introduced to correct energy loss in thick samples. Compound samples were successfully employed for light element measurements. Result: Agreement is not good with the evaluated nuclear data for both elements.

3 The DDX, EDX and ADX data for nat Si(n,xp) reaction

4 Measurements of secondary gamma-ray production cross sections with Hp-Ge detector induced by 14 MeV Neutrons Samples: nat Sn Facility:OKTAVIAN, pulsed neutrons Machine time:2 weeks in 2000 Method: TOF-gated PHS analysis Remarks:Discrete and continuum components were successfully extracted from the measured pulse height spectrum (PHS) with Hp-Ge (the results were still preliminary). Result: The present data are the first measured discrete gamma- ray production cross sections for nat Sn.

5 (n,2n) reaction cross section measurement with a beam DT neutron source Samples: 55 Mn (to check the system) Facility:FNS, pencil beam neutrons Machine time:6 weeks in 1999-2000 Method:Coincidence detection and pulse shape discrimination Remarks:The method to directly measure the spectra of two neutrons emitted from (n,2n) reaction has been established. Result: For 55 Mn, the measured (n,2n) cross section was in good agreement with the experimental value obtained by the activation method.

6 The results of ADX for 55 Mn(n,2n) reaction

7 Fusion neutronics benchmark experiment - leakage gamma-ray spectrum measurement - Samples:LiAlO 2, Li 2 TiO 3, Li 2 ZrO 3 12 C, 51 V, nat Fe, nat Cu, nat Pb, nat W Facility:FNS, pulsed neutrons Machine time:4 weeks in 1999-2000 Method:TOF-gated PHS analysis Remarks:A high-energy resolution measurement for a wide energy range from 0.05 to 15 MeV was realized. Validation has been carried out for five nuclear data files, i.e., JENDL- 3.2, JENDL fusion file, ENDF/B-VI, FENDL/E-1.0 and FENDL/E-2.0. Result: nat V: Underestimation of all the nuclear data files. nat Fe: Overestimation of JENDL-3.2. nat Pb: Reproduction is not good for JENDLs 16 O: 6 MeV peak is not reproduced by JENDLs.

9 Evaluated gamma-ray emission the EDX of nat V C/E of leakage gamma-ray for scattering angle

10 Secondary gamma-ray skyshine from 14 MeV neutron source facility Facility:FNS, DC neutrons ( ~ 1x10 11 ) Machine time:2 weeks in 2002 Detector:NaI(5”x5”,8”x8”), Hp-Ge(40%) Remarks:Clean skyshine benchmark data can be obtained up to 1000 m from the neutron source. Result: Preliminary experiment has been done under the plug- in condition (the plug is just above the source and on the ceiling) at 140 m from the facility.
