After 8 years from the accident at TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi Nucleat Power Station (1F), the "on-site" R&D situation has been changed into new phase. It can be considered like from understanding to predicting by many direct and indirect measurements and analyses. In this presentation, nuclear data needs for 1F decommishioning are revisited according to these situation. The needs for accident evoluti

The continuum-discretized coupled-channels method (CDCC) [1] is a reliable method for describing breakup reactions involving weakly-binding nuclei. So far, CDCC has been used successfully to reproduce experimental data for nucleon scattering from Li-isotopes [2, 3, 4], which are an important material in fusion energy development. Furthermore, CDCC can apply to analyses of four-body breakup reactio

Even though carbon-ions provide highly conformal dose distributions thanks to the Bragg peak and the high straightness of the track, they will induce undesired dose outside the primary beam field. The undesired dose arises from secondary particles produced through beam interactions with the patient's body. Despite intensive studies, lateral dose distributions are not understood well, because there

Dependence of the potential energy surface of U-236 system on effective nucleon-nucleon interactions
The potential energy surface (PES) is one of the most important quantity to understand fission mechanisms. Valley in PES originating from the ground state defines the most-favorable path toward the scission. Microscopic models such as Hartree-Fock theory are known to be powerful tools to obtain the PES of fissionning nuclei. However, the effective interactions to be used in such calculations ar
