Unpaid outreach work and electrostatic accelerator applications

Whenever we have to discuss an accelerator being capable to generate about 1 - 2 MV, it is widely accepted in the world that an electrostatic accelerator for industrial applications and academic uses basically has an advantage in the price competitiveness, beam performance, easiness in operation and maintenance. Moreover, the importance of outreach activity in many academic fields has been pointed out these days inside and outside of Japan, many of the outreach ones have been actively performed in domestic and international societies, and some of the activities also by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA). As an accelerator mass spectroscopy (AMS) is frequently called to be one of the most successful application of the electrostatic accelerators, we planned to ask a famous researcher to present his work and, historical and milestones of the AMS results in super science seminar (S3 or S-CUBE) being combined with basic experiments on V.d.G (Van de Graaff) electrostatic generators this August in KPSI (Kansai Photon Science Institute) of JAEA. In the S-cube, each participant can learn what is the AMS, and recent widely-accepted successes, and discuss with the researcher about archaeological questions when Yayoi era started and historical fake of the Holy Shroud of Turin, and can make to deepen his understandings of the electrostatic accelerator mechanism and industrial applications by assembling a model kit of a V.d.G. high voltage generator. In the presentation, it is planned to summarize the outreach activities in KPSI of JAEA and the electrostatic accelerators for industrial and academic applications. (author)
