As global energy and environment problems draw increasing attention, Japan has set a target of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. It has become even more important to promote the development of technology for fully utilizing hydrogen in the future, and also to explore fundamental science.However, since the foundational science related to hydrogen (hereinafter, hydrogen science) spans an extremely wide range of academic fields including engineering, chemistry, physics, and biology, sufficient opportunities have not been established for sharing cutting-edge trends and promoting joint research.
Against this kind of background, the “Hydrogenomics: Creation of Innovative Materials, Devices, and Reaction Processes Using Higher-Order Hydrogen Functions” project was established under a Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research on Innovative Areas from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (FY2018 to FY2022). Through this framework, research has been promoted with the aim of creating the science for mastering the advanced use of hydrogen. We call this research area “hydrogenomics” (hydrogen + omics [system of learning]), and strive to promote joint research related to the diverse physical properties and functions of flexibly and continuously transformable hydrogen through cooperation between researchers in a wide range of academic fields including engineering, chemistry, physics, and biology. Practical, systematic joint research into hydrogen science that spans such as wide range of academic fields is unprecedented worldwide and this is the first such attempt.
This book summarizes the following to provide a practical guide for obtaining new directions and widely sharing the state of activities in this new academic field, hydrogenomics.
Chapter 1 “Diverse properties of hydrogen in materials” gives an overview of the “high densification ability of hydrogen”, which is related to many of energy functions; the “interfacial localizability of hydrogen”, which is important for enhancing electronic functions and mechanical properties; the “fast migration ability of hydrogen”, which includes short- and long-range migration phenomena and coupling with electrons related to new conceptual devices: and “high activation ability of hydrogen”, which is related to new material conversion processes.
In order to fully utilize hydrogen based on these properties, it is essential to also perform research into analyzing and predicting hydrogen, which is difficult to detect in materials, with higher accuracy than ever before. Chapter 2 “Advanced measurements and calculations for hydrogen in materials” introduces cutting-edge hydrogen measurements driven by new methods, and the latest hydrogen calculations for “seeing” invisible hydrogen.
Chapters 3 to 5 introduce some results related to fully utilizing hydrogen to explain the state of activities in “hydrogenomics”. Chapter 3 “Synthesizing new materials” explains the latest in high-pressure synthesis and thin-film synthesis technology, and then introduces hydride-ion conductors, hydrogen boride sheets, and other materials. Chapter 4 “Designing new devices” introduces new concepts for devices related to hydrogen and hydrides, such as hydride-based all-solid-state batteries, hydrogen-doped solar cells, rechargeable fuel cells, and proton-coupled electron transfer thermochemical cells. Furthermore, Chapter 5 “Providing new reaction processes and visualization technology” introduces new synthesis techniques for amino acids and ammonia, and new hydrogen visualization technologies using metal complexes.

完結-開祖・植芝盛平翁のもとで修行し薫陶を受けた斉藤守弘師範が、翁直伝の技と伝統ある稽古法を、口伝をまじえて紹介するシリーズ。 〈日英対訳版〉 『武道』（昭和13年）は合気道開祖植芝盛平翁が出版した、唯一の技術書である。その中に掲載されたすべての写真は盛平翁自身のものであり、解説も翁監修のものである。 今回の『武産合気道』別巻では、この『武道』に掲載された盛平翁の演武写真とともに、斉藤師範自らが詳しい連続演武を行ない、技の一つひとつを再現し、さらに詳細な解説をつけている。合気道家のみならず合気道史を研究する方にも貴重な資料と言える。 Among the technical volumes authored by Morihiro Saito, certainly the most unique must be his publication of “Takemusu Aikido - Special Edition.” This 176-page book is an exhaustive analysis of the famous 1938 technical manual published by Aikido Founder Morihei Ueshiba in 1938. This prewar volume is a landmark document that provides the missing link to understanding the technical evolution of aikido from its Daito-ryu jujutsu origins to the modern form of the art. The 50 techniques covered include preparatory exercises, basic techniques, knife (tantodori), and sword-taking techniques (tachidori), sword vs. sword forms (ken tai ken), mock-bayonet (juken) techniques, and finishing exercises (shumatsu dosa). Takemusu Aikido Special Edition also features a fascinating essay by Aikido Journal Editor Stanley Pranin on the history and background of the publication of Morihei Ueshiba’s prewar manual “Budo” containing newly-discovered findings. 《目次》 はじめに 刊行にあたって 『武道』について 技術書『武道』の解説 構え 片手取り入り身投げ 体の変化（変更） 片手取り呼吸投げ 正面打ち一教 表技 正面打ち一教 裏技 気の流れ 正面打ち呼吸投げ 気の流れ 正面打ち小手返し 気の流れ 正面打ち二教 裏技 正面打ち三教 裏技 横面打ち入り身投げ 横面打ち四方投げ 横面打ち五教 裏技 横面打ち二教 裏技 横面打ち四教 表技 両手取り四方投げ 表技 両手取り四方投げ 裏技 合気の鍛錬（呼吸投げ） 両手取り天地投げ 気の流れ 突き入り身投げ 横面の鍛錬 後襟取り呼吸投げ（後方に引かれた場合） 後襟取り固め技（後方に引かれた場合） 後襟取り呼吸投げ（前方に押された場合） 後襟取り呼吸投げ 後両手取り呼吸投げ 太刀取り小手返し 剣正面打ち呼吸投げ 太刀取り呼吸投げ 右の変化 左の変化 横面・胴 左右の変化 短剣突き呼吸投げ 短剣取り小手返し 短剣取り五教 裏技 剣対剣 籠手 剣対剣 面 剣対剣 突き 銃剣突き呼吸投げ 銃剣取り呼吸投げ 銃剣突き六教 銃剣突き呼吸投げ 銃剣対銃剣 槍取り呼吸投げ 終末動作 座り技呼吸法１ 座り技呼吸法２ 座り技呼吸法３ 座り技呼吸法４ 臂力の養成（諸手取り呼吸法） 背の運動
