However, metalic lithium has several difficulties in chemical properties (low melting point, high chemical activity and 7Be production) as a target material. For resolving those isssues, we have developed a compact and sealed Li target in combination with a DC accelerator. We have constructed a compact accelerator-driven neutron source to confirm the practical reliability and performance of the sealed lithium target for the BNCT application in the Nagoya University. Metalic lithium on the target base plate is covered by a titanium foil. Low-energy and high current proton beam (2.8MeV, 15mA) is passing through the titanium foil and irradiates the lithium (Beam power density < 7MW/m2). Strong turbulent flow is arose with ribs in cooling water channels of the target and have been confirmed to be able to remove high beam flux.

  • Modeling Residential and Workplace Location Assessment on Car Commuting Energy
    Transactions on the Built Environment vol 41, © 1999 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 Modeling residential and workplace location assessment on car commuting energy S.MyojinO),H.AbeO) ^Faculty of Environmental Science and Technology, Okayama University, 700-8530, Okayama, Japan Email: [email protected] Abstract A model for assessing resident and workplace location on energy for car commute to work is dealt with in the paper. The paper consists of two parts : model building and assessing simplified location patterns. The model is composed of five submodels : location patterns, commute trip distribution, spatial distribution of commute trip density, road traffic speed and energy calculation. Three simplified location patterns are set to resident and workplace respectively, so nine sets of locations are put under assessment The study area is assumed to be circular. The location sets together with commute length distribution form respective spatial distribution of car commute trip density in the area The density is converted to traffic speed Car commuting energy is calculated by applying traffic speed-energy function to the speed distribution. Population is included in some of the submodels so that the model may be applicable over the wide range of population size. The model proved effective for the assessment on the whole on examination of the calculated average traffic speed against the observed in several Japanese cities of different population. The spatial distributions of car commute trip density are grouped into any one of bell, plate and plateau types. Plate typs is dented at and near the center and the plateau is intermediate between bell and plate.

With its vast land and nature, Hokkaido is known to many tourists as a treasure trove of food, including seafood, agriculture, dairy products, wine, and sake. Of all the edible wonders this prefecture offers, there is one unique item that is not only popular among tourists, but is also a staple for locals: Genghis Khan. Genghis Khan is a lamb/mutton barbeque that uses uniquely-shaped skillets. One of the most common skillet shapes is that of a soldier’s helmet. The meat is grilled in the centre of the skillet, which rises in the middle like a mountain, and fresh local vegetables—common choices are bean sprouts, cabbage, onions, and pumpkin slices—are steamed on the rims with the juice that flows from the meat on top. Genghis Khan is often prepared in a cook-your-own style: diners grill the meat and vegetables by themselves, whether they are at home or in a restaurant. This makes Genghis Khan a great social opportunity as well, and even locals often go out to enjoy grilling up some Genghis Khan with glasses of local beer in hand.

  • Geochemistry of River Waters Collected from the Okayama and Tottori Prefectures, Japan

Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University, 2. Faculty of Science, Okayama University, 3. Research Institute for Humanity and Nature, 4. Faculty of Science and Engineering, Waseda University A detailed geochemical and isotopic study of river waters from the Okayama and Tottori Prefectures, Japan, has been undertaken in order to evaluate the water-soil (rock) interaction, as well as human impact on the geochemical nature of the river water. A total of 646 samples were collected from 442 locations since 2011. The pH, EC, and water temperature were measured on site, and the major dissolved components, trace element (47 elements) concentrations, and O-H-S-Sr isotope ratios were measured in the laboratory. These data are being used to construct the geochemical maps of the river water of the two prefectures. In 2017, we focused on the investigation of the central to western Tottori Prefecture. The river waters in the area are generally characterized by high Rb and Cs concentrations, which likely reflect the presence of dacitic lava and volcanic sediments of the Daisen volcano. A similar pattern is also observed for Si and V concentrations. The oxygen isotope ratio displays a clear altitude effect. The d-excess value is high in the northern Okayama and Tottori Prefectures (>20), compared to the southern Okayama prefecture (5~15).

  • Outline O F the Carboniferous Trilobites in Japan*'
    104 Proc. Japan Acad., 55, Ser. B (1979) [Vol. 55(B), 21. Outline of the Carboniferous Trilobites in Japan*' By Teiichi KOBAYASHI, M. J. A., and Takashi HAMADA University of Tokyo (Communicated March 12, 1979) In the Carboniferous fauna of Japan trilobites have been a small group represented by only five species (Sugiyama, 1944; Okubo,1951; Endo and Matsumoto, 1912), but recently it was considerably am- plified with fresh materials from old and new localities. At present they attain as much as almost six times in specific number, beside some indeterminable forms. These trilobites are classifiable into two major groups which represent the Kitakami trilobite facies (Kt) in non-calcareous rocks in Northeast Japan and the Akiyoshi trilobite facies (Ak) in lime- stones in the Inner Zone of Southwest Japan. None has so far been discovered from the Outer Zone. The trilobites of these two biof acies belong to sixteen genera in two families and seven subfamilies in the Proetidae as follows : I. Proetinae 1. Proetinae: Pudoproetus (Ak), Conophillipsia (Kt) 2. Cyrtosymbolinae: Archaegonus (Angustibole) (Ak), Waribole (Ak) Phillibole (Kt), Carbonocoryphe (Ak) 3. Phillipsiinae: Phillipsia (Kt) 4. Linguaphillipsiinae: Linguaphillipsia (Kt, Ak), Palaeophillipsia (Kt) 5. Cummingellinae: Cummingella (Ak) 6. Griflithidinae: Grifithidella (Ak), Thigriffides (Ak), Paragrif thides (Ak), Humilogriffithides (Ak) 7. Ditomopyginae: Paladin (Paladin, Weberides) (Kt) II. Brachymetopidae: Brachymetopus (Brachymetopus, Brachymetopella) (Ak) As listed above, the Phillipsinae is restricted to the Kitakami facies and so are the Cummingellinae, Grifithidinae and Brachymeto- pidae to the Akiyoshi facies, but the Proetinae, Cyrtosymbolinae and Linguaphillipsiinae are contained in the two facies. In the generic level, however, there is none common between the two facies.

A study on intraalveolar exudates in acute mycoplasma pneumoniae infection.∗ Takeo Yoshinouchi, Yuji Ohtsuki, Jiro Fujita, Yoshiki Sugiura, Shogo Banno, Shigeki Sato, and Ryuzo Ueda Abstract Pathologic features of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection (M. pneumonia) are generally non- specific, and the literature regarding the pathologic features of M. pneumonia with intraalveolar exudates is limited. Clinical and histopathological studies were performed in 3 patients with M. pneumonia which did not respond to erythromycin and minocycline, but all rapidly recovered after corticosteroid therapy. In pathologic findings, we observed intraalveolar exudates and focal organi- zation in M. pneumonia, and its intraalveolar lesions were compared between M. pneumonia and bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia containing fibrin (BOOP). Immunohistochemical studies were performed using the streptavidin biotin peroxidase complex method with anti-alpha- smooth muscle actin antibody and anti-pancytokeratin AE1/AE3 antibody. In pathologic findings, more fibrin deposits in intaalveolar lesions were observed in M. pneumonia than in BOOP. In in- taalveolar lesions of M. pneumonia, a larger amount of nuclear debris, more neutrophils, and more erythrocytes were noted.
