Division Spotlight
Nuclear Installations Safety
Devoted specifically to the safety of nuclear installations and the health and safety of the public, this division seeks a better understanding of the role of safety in the design, construction and operation of nuclear installation facilities. The division also promotes engineering and scientific technology advancement associated with the safety of such facilities.

A more open future for nuclear research
A growing number of institutional, national, and funder mandates are requiring researchers to make their published work immediately publicly accessible, through either open repositories or open access (OA) publications. In addition, both private and public funders are developing policies, such as those from the Office of Science and Technology Policy and the European Commission, that ask researchers to make publicly available at the time of publication as much of their underlying data and other materials as possible. These, combined with movement in the scientific community toward embracing open science principles (seen, for example, in the dramatic rise of preprint servers like arXiv), demonstrate a need for a different kind of publishing outlet.

This paper deals with the experimental result that is obtained from the GAMMA 10 and Kobe Cusp direct energy conversion (DEC) experiment system in the Tsukuba-Kobe university internet connected remote participation system. A DSO (Digital Sampling Oscilloscope), a PCMCIA based A/D converter and a PC (Personal Computer) server as the controller and the data storage server are used as a simulation experiment of Data Acquisition(DAQ) system. The communication between the Kobe University and the University of Tsukuba did the information transmission between the monitor site of Kobe and the experimental system operator site of Tsukuba, by using the communication of the browser base. The experimental result in the latest shot can be reflected to the parameter change for next shot. The parameter setting and control of DSO etc. becomes possible, without controlling through the operator of the University of Tsukuba by using the common gateway interface (CGI) based program.
