Abstract: A nuclear material within a container is to be detected. Included are: a neutron source for generating neutrons emitted toward the container; a detection section capable of detecting neutrons including primary neutrons emitted from the neutron source and secondary neutrons generated through a nuclear fission reaction of the nuclear material; and a processing section for performing a reactor noise analysis process based on data obtained through detecting of neutrons by the detection section. The neutron source generates neutrons in a pulsatile manner. The processing section performs the reactor noise analysis process based on data obtained by excluding, from time series data obtained through detecting of neutrons by the detection section, data of a time range including a generation time of the neutrons generated by the neutron source in the pulsatile manner.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a method for producing a resin compact containing an epoxy resin, a curing agent, a curing accelerator and an inorganic filler. The method includes a kneading and crushing process for preparing a first powder material obtained by mixing, heat-melting, kneading and crushing a first component containing the epoxy resin and the curing agent and the inorganic filler, but not containing the curing accelerator; a pulverizing process for preparing a second powder material obtained by pulverizing a second component containing the curing accelerator; a mixing process for preparing a resin composition by dispersing and mixing the first powder material and the second powder material; and a molding process for obtaining the resin compact by compression-molding the resin composition. This makes it possible to obtain a resin compact (particularly, a resin compact for encapsulation) having superior long term storage stability at room temperature, good curable property and fluidity.
