β¦ Synopsis
Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) performs Research and Development (R&D) for accelerator-driven systems (ADS) for transmutation of long-lived nuclides. To study the basic characteristics of ADS, Transmutation Experimental Facility is proposed within the framework of the J-PARC project. The facility consists of two buildings, Transmutation Physics Experimental Facility to research the neutronics and the controllability of ADS and ADS Target Test Facility for material irradiation and partial mockup of beam window. A comprehensive R&D program for future ADS plant is also underway in three technical fields, 1) accelerator, 2) lead-bismuth target/coolant and 3) subcritical core
