The small-angle neutron scattering instrument, SANS-U, owned by the Institute for Solid State Physics, The University of Tokyo, has been upgraded. The SANS-U is a 32 m SANS instrument installed in 1991 at the guide hall of the JRR-3M research reactor of the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute, and has been serving for inter-university cooperative research use since 1993. The major upgrades include (i) replacement of the two-dimensional area detector by a multi-wire type position-sensitive proportional counter, (ii) renewal of the operating system from a VAX and sequencers to an integrated PXI system controlled by LabVIEW-RT software, (iii) a focusing collimation system, and (iv) a variety of accessory equipment. These upgrades provide a wide dynamic range of neutron counting, user-friendly operation and real-time circular averaging of two-dimensional data. © 2005 International Union of Crystallography - all rights reserved.

We are developing a broadband THz detectors using Nb-based superconducting tunnel junctions. We found two components in a current signal for 1-2 THz pulse input. From the comparison of results obtained for the signals, the frequency response for the different size of STJs and the STJs fabricated on different substrate materials, we demonstrate that they correspond to photons absorbed with the superconductor electrode (refered as 'direct' component) and phonons generated by photons absorbed with the substrate (refered as 'phonon-mediated' component). © 2005 IEEE.

Tauopacy is the abnormal aggregation of tau which is one of the microtubule-associated proteins often observed in Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease brain. Such an abnormal protein aggregation in cells causes cellular degeneration and death, and finally ends up with grave disorders. We synthesized human recombinant human tau and evaluated the structure in water by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). SANS showed tau (46Kda,consisting of 448a.a.) behaved in water as if it were originally and highly polymerized rod-like fibers although the SDS-page showed tau was refined to a single molecule. After we confirmed tau heated with reducing agent showed a single dispersion by DLS, we observed the structure by SANS equipped with 40 fresnel lenses at a lower concentration, C*. The radius of gyration of the tau cluster was estimated to be 272 Å from the Gunier analysis on the SANS profile in the lower q ranges. We clarified that normal tau proteins form a huge globule cluster in water by self-assembly, furthermore, they form a fibril by intermolecular cystine cross-linking under oxidative environment.

In this study we present possibility of continuous measurements of lightning- associated transient luminous events (sprites, elves and blue jets) from the ISS altitude using the EUSO telescope. From global lightning data we estimated possible detection rates of lightning and TLEs. We also estimated photon numbers and optical spectra of TLEs in the near-ultraviolet region (300-400 nm) where the fluorescence emission caused by CRs exists. These results imply that EUSO has enough capabilities to monitor not only super-GZK CRs but also global lightning and TLEs. © World Scientific Publishing Company.

RIKEN has developed in collaboration with Hamamatsu a new type of Multi Anode Photomultiplier (MAPMT), R8900 series, with a large sensitive area of ∼83% of the physical surface. The performance of R8900 is reviewed in the following. RIKEN has also manufactured a new type of wavelength shifter (w.s.) film to shift near-UV light (330 ÷ 400 nm) to visible one. This film uses POPOP as a shifter and EPO-TEX as a substrate. The quantum efficiency of the film reaches ∼80%. © World Scientific Publishing Company.

出版者・発行元：Physica C Superconductivity and Its Applications

We have developed a new terahertz (THz) wave detector using an Nb-based superconducting tunnel junction (STJ). The STJ consists of a Nb/Al/AlO <inf>x</inf>/Al/Nb structure on a single-crystal LiNbO<inf>3</inf> substrate. Using LiNbO<inf>3</inf> as a substrate, an irradiating THz wave is converted to phonons in LiNbO<inf>3</inf>, which has a relatively high absorption coefficient. The phonons propagating in the substrate reach the Nb base electrode of the STJ and break Cooper pairs. As a result, the THz wave can be detected as tunneling current signals in the STJ. THz waves from a widely tunable THz-wave parametric oscillator (TPO) were irradiated on to the STJ, which acted as a THz wave detector. The STJs were cooled to an operating temperature of 0.4 K using a 3He cryostat. We have observed STJ signals related to THz wave irradiations. In this paper, fabrication processes and characteristics of THz wave detectors using STJs are also discussed. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Proton polarization with naphthalene crystals by integrated solid effect on photoexcited triplet state

Iinuma, M; Takahashi, Y; Shaké, I; Oda, M; Shimizu, HM; Masaike, A; Yabuzaki, T

記述言語：英語出版者・発行元：一般社団法人日本物理学会

We have carried out detailed systematic studies of relaxation effects, which contribute to a significant improvement in proton polarization in a single crystal of naphthalene doped with pentacene. The experiments have been performed in a magnetic field of 3 kG at room temperature or at 77 K and with a pulsed dye laser or a pulsed N<inf>2</inf> laser. We have found that a relaxation rate in the presence of irradiation with visible light (λ = 595 nm) is much smaller than that with ultraviolet light (λ = 337 nm) at room temperature, although the absorption rate of visible light is much larger than that of ultraviolet light. By cooling the crystal, the slow motion of the naphthalene molecules, which is a dominant relaxation process, can be suppressed. Surprisingly, we have found that the relaxation time at 77 K in the presence of the dye laser becomes long, but still depends on the laser power. Our investigation has also indicated that both the longer relaxation time and the irradiation with the dye laser lead to a great improvement in the polarization of protons in the bulk of a crystal from 0.5% at room temperature to 32% at 77 K. ©2005 The Physical Society of Japan.

We have carried out the experiments for polarizing protons in single crystals of p-terphenyl doped with 0.1 mol% pentacene. The experiments have been performed in a magnetic field of 3 kG at room temperature or at 77 K. We obtained the polarization of 1.3% for protons in bulk at room temperature by using a pulsed dye-laser with the wavelength of 590 nm, the average power of 150 mW, and the repetition rate of 50 Hz. The polarization at 77 K reached 18% by irradiation with the dye-laser of 500 mW, 50 Hz and the same wavelength. The polarization of protons was measured by the neutron transmission method also. The result was consistent with that measured by the nuclear magnetic resonance. © 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

A broad-band THz radiation detector using a Nb-based superconducting tunnel junction

We have proposed and been developing a new broad-band terahertz (THz) radiation detector using a Nb-based superconducting tunnel junction (STJ). The STJ's were fabricated on LiNbO<inf>3</inf> and LiTaO<inf>3</inf> mono-crystal substrates. We radiated monochromatic THz pulses in the range 1-2 THz with the pulse repetition rate of 49 Hz, and successfully detected the corresponding periodic signals via a charge-sensitive preamplifier. The current signal obtained by the derivative of the output signal gave the time response of about 15-20 microseconds. The frequency response was compared with that of a conventional pyro-electric sensor. We found their frequency response showed the similar shape in frequency, demonstrating the flat response of the STJ detector in 1-2 THz. These results show that the detector can be used as a broad-band THz and far-infrared radiation detector above the frequency corresponding to the energy gap of the superconductor used for the base electrode. © 2005 IEEE.

出版者・発行元：IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity

We have fabricated Nb-based superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs) with Al trapping layers using the photosensitive polyimide insulation layer for X-ray detector. It is possible to simplify the fabrication process of the STJs, because the photosensitive polyimide is used as the insulation layer instead of conventional inorganic insulation films without an etching process in a vacuum chamber. The polyimide insulation layer expects to be stable for thermal cycling between 0.3 K and room temperature. The preliminary experiments of 5.9 keV radiation shows the energy resolution of 86 eV. © 2005 IEEE.

出版者・発行元：IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity

We have developed submillimeter-wave direct detectors employing niobium-based superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs), with broadband spectral response, high sensitivity and imaging capability. Spectral response peaked at 650 GHz with a fractional bandwidth of 14 percent, which fits one of the important atmospheric windows for an astronomical project. We also confirmed the linearity of the detector response in the dynamic range greater than 10 6. The measured coupling efficiency was about 0.2, which was lower than the expected value of 0.5. The measured noise current of the detector was 10 fA/√Hz, which agreed with the shot noise from the residual leakage current of 100 pA at 0.3 K. Resultant noise equivalent power (NEP) is 1.6 × 10-16 W/√Hz, that is less than the background photon fluctuation limit for ground-based submillimeter-wave observations. © 2005 IEEE.

Heavy ion detection experiments were carried out with superconducting series array tunnel junctions. 40Ar beam from linear accelerator was introduced to a cryostat and stopped in a substrate on which series array tunnel junctions were fabricated. An energy resolution of 4.2% was obtained for 191 MeV 40 Ar, but linearity proved poor for energy ranges from 136 MeV to 191 MeV. © 2005 IEEE.

出版者・発行元：IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity

We have developed a phononmediated radiation detector using Nb-based superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs). The STJs are fabricated on a substrate as an absorber of the radiation, and a substantial amount of emergent phonons with an energy above the energy gap are detected. The performance of the detector depends on the collection efficiency of the phonons. A selection of an appropriate substrate is required for optimizing the detector performance. We fabricated Nb-based STJs on a Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> and a LiNbO <inf>3</inf> substrates, and compared the pulse heights of substrate phonon events due to X-ray irradiation to the substrates. We found that the maximum pulse height of the phonon events for the LiNbO<inf>3</inf> substrate was about twice of that for the Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> substrate, so that these spectra which was obtained from two STJs showed different shapes, especially the peak due to phonon events. © 2005 IEEE.

Superconducting series-junction detectors present the possibility of highly practical radiation detectors with high detection efficiencies, high count rates, and high energy-resolution even for radiation that is difficult to detect efficiently with traditional radiation detectors. A series-junction detector with an effective volume of 8×8×0.4 mm3 has shown that the efficiency of signal charge production is high despite its large volume. The position dependence of signal heights of a series-junction detector with an effective area of 1.5×1.5 mm2 was corrected, and the energy resolution was improved from 2.9% to 0.42%. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.
