Introduction Multineutron systems have attracted long-standing attention in nuclear physics. The attractive force acting on two neutrons is slightly insufficient to create a bound state and causes a strong correlation just above the threshold. As the number of neutrons increases, the number of neutron pairs in the system also increases. If an attractive force acts on them, bound states or strongly correlated phenomena, such as resonances, may appear. Such correlated multineutron systems can be considered to affect the stabilities of neutron-rich nuclei and properties of neutron matters such as neutron stars through clustering and/or condensation phenomena. For several decades, experimental attempts have been made with a particular focus on the tetra-neutron (4n) system. In the previous century it was not clarified whether there is a bound or a resonant state [1–3]. Early this century, a possible signature of 4n cluster (or resonance) was reported in coincidence measurements of neutron(s) and fragments produced by the fragmentation of a neutronrich rare isotope (RI) beam, 14Be [4]. At the Rikagaku Kenkyūjo (RIKEN) RI Beam Factory, two experiments using neutron-rich 8He beams were performed to observe mass-spectra of the tetra-neutron system with almost recoil-less conditions and their results were published in 2016 [5] and 2022 [6]. Here, the essences of their basic idea, analysis, and results are described, as well as future perspectives.

Noboru Takigawa passed away on 22 October 2022, at the age of 79. He was one of the world’s leaders in the field of low-energy heavy-ion reactions, and his approach influenced researchers worldwide. Born in Tsuchiura, Japan, on 1 July 1943, he received the Doctor of Science degree in 1971 from the University of Tokyo under the supervision of Akito Arima on studies of the cluster structure of 12C. In 1973, he started working on low-energy nuclear reactions at Hahn-Meitner institute. He took subsequent research associate positions at Techniche Universitat Munchen, Oxford University, IPN Orsay, and University of Munster, before he obtained a faculty position in 1979 at Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan. The scope of his research was very broad, and he worked on subjects as varied as the cluster structure of light nuclei; a semiclassical approach to heavy-ion elastic scattering; transport phenomena in deep inelastic collisions; quantum tunneling in fusion and fission; structure and reactions of neutron-rich nuclei; and electron screening on astrophysical nuclear reactions. His collaboration with David Brink on the application of WKB theory to optical potentials with three turning points has been widely recognized. The key point was the recognition that anomalous large-angle scattering in elastic scattering of alpha particles off heavy nuclei is due to an interference between barrier wave and internal wave. Around 1982, he started studying heavy-ion deep inelastic scattering and subbarrier fusion, and made many important contributions to that field. A common feature of these phenomena is that a system that is coupled to other degrees of freedom is largely influenced by those couplings. He was continuously interested in the physics of friction, dissipation, and fluctuation, and macroscopic quantum tunneling. He studied reactions of exotic nuclei soon after experiments with exotic nuclei started. In 1991, he showed that the halo structure of neutron-rich nuclei leads to reduction of the Coulomb barrier, which may result in enhancement of fusion cross-sections. In 1993, he used semiclassical theory to discuss the role of the breakup process of neutron-rich nuclei in subbarrier fusion, the idea of which has significantly influenced the field. In addition to research, he was keen on education. He had many good friends and colleagues worldwide, and his connection to them was very helpful for his former students who were employed worldwide. He often took his students with him when he traveled. This triggered a strong collaboration between Tohoku University and the experimentalists at the Australian National University regarding subbarrier fusion. He was an excellent host to many nuclear physicists whose visits to Sendai were intellectually rewarding, because it helped the guests not only to probe physics, but also to appreciate the depths of Japanese culture and language. He trained many students from around the world, including from Myanmar, Indonesia, Bangl

Introduction This year is the 100th anniversary of the discovery of the Compton effect, marked by A. H. Compton’s 1923 Physical Review article [1]. On this occasion, we reflect on the effect’s impact on nuclear physics and celebrate the event a century ago and the eminent scientist who made the discovery. Much of the historical comments rely on the article by R. H. Stuewer [2]. A recent Physics Today article [3] presents a historical perspective of Compton’s work and provides more details. The various applications of the Compton effect and its “derivatives” (e.g., inverse Compton scattering) impact many areas of physics and chemistry. This short article is restricted to examples taken from the authors’ surroundings: the focus is on nuclear-structure experiments with γ-spectroscopic methods and nuclear cross-section measurements relevant for astrophysics.
今年是康普顿效应发现100周年，以a.h.康普顿1923年在《物理评论》上发表的文章[1]为标志。借此机会，我们回顾这一效应对核物理学的影响，并庆祝一个世纪前的这一事件和发现这一现象的著名科学家。许多历史评论依赖于R. H. Stuewer[2]的文章。《今日物理学》最近的一篇文章[3]从历史的角度介绍了康普顿的工作，并提供了更多的细节。康普顿效应及其“衍生物”(如逆康普顿散射)的各种应用影响着物理和化学的许多领域。这篇短文仅限于作者周围的例子:重点是用γ光谱方法进行的核结构实验和与天体物理学相关的核截面测量。

Introduction Rikagaku Kenkyūjo (RIKEN) is promoting the maintenance and advanced development of compact neutron source measurement systems with the aim of using “neutrons anytime, anywhere.” As of 2022, two RIKEN accelerator-driven compact neutron systems (RANS), RANS and RANS-II, are in constant operation at RIKEN Wako. RANSIII and RANS-μ are currently under development. The development of compact and medium-sized accelerator-based neutron sources is very active around the world nowadays and several research projects are presented on the development and utilization of mediumand smallsized neutron sources without spallation in the International Atomic Energy Agency’s first international conference for accelerators, held in May 2022, “International Conference on Accelerators for Research and Sustainable Development: From Good Practices Towards Socioeconomic Impact” [1]. It represents the predicted spread of compact neutron source development. In such a trend, RIKEN has demonstrated its high potential to the world by proceeding with the advanced development of a compact neutron source system. This article explains the current status and future development of the RANS project. The RANS project has two main goals. One is to develop a compact evaluation and analysis system for industrial use, such as in manufacturing. The other is for the realization of a transportable neutron source system that can be used for nondestructive measurement of infrastructure such as bridges and highways to prevent accidents, as well as for outdoor use to contribute to proactive maintenance to realize longer life. There are various needs for nondestructive measurement. Therefore, as shown in Figure 1, it is essential to develop a system that meets various needs onsite by making the best use of its characteristics, such as high penetrability and analysis ability of neutron beams with a measurement accuracy that meets various needs. The following sections briefly describe the accelerator-based RANS, RANS-II, as well as RANS-III, which is under development.

Background A part of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)’s response to the accident at TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant was the Action Plan on Nuclear Safety. One of its requirements was a need to urgently develop portable equipment, associated instrumentation, and validated methodologies for radiological mapping and radiation monitoring. As a result, a dedicated project was developed and implemented on the use of instrumented unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in areas that are not accessible on foot and where high radiation levels might exist. This report covers a 10-year period during which the UAV industry has matured immensely and there have been a number of significant developments in UAV technology and detector systems tested and deployed (e.g., see Ref. [1] and references therein). Use of UAV systems has become widely accepted by regulatory authorities in a number of sectors, even including the use of autonomous/semiautonomous systems within the nuclear industry [2, 3]. However, even in 2023, commercially available off-the-shelf systems to perform radiological mapping are few (e.g., Ref. [4, 5]) and practical operational experience remains limited. Herein, we describe the project and system developed and delivered to Fukushima Prefecture. Development of the UAV-Based System The UAV System The selected UAV system was an Aibotix X6 [6]. The intended market for the X6 at that time was for photographic inspection and thus came equipped with a centrally mounted stabilized camera gimbal. A more precise method of measuring height above ground level through a laser rangefinder system was added. The radiation detector systems developed by the IAEA Nuclear Science and Instrumentation Laboratory were mounted on the gimbal such that the radiation detectors and cameras could be exchanged. Data were collected at a frequency of 1 Hz and transferred to the main UAV processing unit, whereupon the measurement data were combined with flight parameters, especially position and altitude. These data were transmitted in real time on the pilot remote control and stored on both the UAV and detector systems, for later analysis.

tendees were early career researchers (graduate students or postdoctoral researchers, and the majority of participants (>90%) attended in-person. While observing the COVID-19 safety protocols on-site at LBNL, the overwhelming feeling of the week was excitement to be back at a conference again, face to face. The outdoor tent (with excellent ventilation) for meals and breaks was constantly occupied, with small groups of collaborators discussing their upcoming work, new collaborations forming, and much coffee being consumed. We were thrilled to have the opportunity to host NS2022, and thankful for support from our vendor sponsors Berkeley Nucleonics Corp., CAEN Technologies Inc., Mirion Technologies, Ortec/Ametek, PHDS, SkuTek, and XIA. We also have to thank the LBNL operations and security teams for logistical support, and the team within NSD for all of their work. The COVID-19 pandemic presented an unusual challenge, but one NS2022 overcame readily. Additional information about the NS2022 conference is available at https://conferences.lbl.gov/event/212/. The next installment of the Nuclear Structure series is planned for 2024, to be hosted by Argonne National Laboratory.
