  A carborne gamma-ray survey system, named as KURAMA (Kyoto University RAdiation MApping system), was developed as a response to the nuclear accident at TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in 2011. A CompactRIO-based system KURAMA-II has been developed as the successor of KURAMA, and served for various activities on the radiation monitoring in eastern Japan. We continue developing KURAMA-II as a tool not only for the current monitoring activities, but also for the immediate responses in nuclear incidents in future. The current status and on-going developments of KURAMA-II will be introduced along with the recent status of eastern Japan.

  SESAME (Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East) is a third generation synchrotron light source under construction in Allan, Jordan. The personal safety system (PSS) aims to protect the personnel from radiation hazards coming from accelerator's operation by controlling the access to the radiation area and to interlock the operation of accelerator's sub-systems according to the area status. Phase 1 of SESAME PSS has been installed and commissioned successfully for Microtron and Booster tunnel. Rockwell L72s safety PLC (up to SIL 3 applications) has been used for Microtron, Booster and Storage Ring PSS. Phase 2 includes the Installation of the storage ring's PSS; two new PSS cabinets with remote safety IO modules have been installed for the storage ring PSS and connected to the main PSS PLC via Ethernet safety CIP. Phase 3 is the personal Safety System for SESAME day one beam-lines which is currently under construction. Many procedures and interlocks have been implemented in order to allow SESAME Booster, Storage Ring and Beam-lines personal safety to be managed in a systematic, risk based manner.
