We present recent results of very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of gamma-ray bright active galactic nuclei (AGNs) using Korean VLBI Network (KVN) at 22, 43, 86, and 129~GHz bands, which are part of a KVN key science program; Interferometric Monitoring of Gamma-ray Bright AGNs (iMOGABA). We selected a total of 34 radio-loud AGNs of which 30 sources are gamma-ray bright AGNs, including 24 sources monitored by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope using the Large Area Telescope on board. The selected sources consist of 24 quasars, 7 BL Lacs, and 3 radio galaxies. In this talk, we summarize recent results of the iMOGABA, including results of single-epoch multi-frequency VLBI observations of the target sources, conducted during a 24-hr session on 2013 November 19 and 20. All observed sources were detected and imaged at all frequency bands with or without a frequency phase transfer technique which enabled to detect and image 12 faint sources at 129 GHz, except for 0218+357 which was detected for only one baseline at all frequency bands.

The amyloid hypothesis has been considered a major explanation of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease. However, failure of phase III clinical trials with anti-amyloid-beta monoclonal antibodies reveals the need for other therapeutic approaches to treat Alzheimer disease. Compared to its relatively short history, optogenetics has developed considerably. The expression of microbial opsins in cells using genetic engineering allows specific control of cell signals or molecules. The application of optogenetics to Alzheimer disease research or clinical approaches is increasing. When applied with gamma entrainment, optogenetic neuromodulation can improve Alzheimer disease symptoms. Although safety problems exist with optogenetics such as the use of viral vectors, this technique has great potential for use in Alzheimer disease. In this paper, we review the historical applications of optogenetic neuromodulation with gamma entrainment to investigate the mechanisms involved in Alzheimer disease and potential therapeutic strategies.

석유화학 공정의 증류탑은 공정유체를 분리, 정제하는 중요한 장치 중의 하나로 가동효율은 설비의 생산성에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 연구는 밀봉 감마선원을 이용하여 투과 감마선의 세기를 높이별로 측정함으로써 내부 밀도의 변화를 분석하여 공정의 가동 중 내부 상황에 대한 정보를 얻고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 한국원자력연구원에서 개발된 자동 증류탑 검사장치를 이용하여 증류탑 상부 양쪽에 밀봉 감마선원과 방사선검출기를 매달아 수직으로 내리면서 실험을 수행하였으며, 이때 감마선원으로는 Co-60 150 mCi과 방사선검출기로 BGO detector를 각각 사용하였다. 진단결과 설비 내부의 tray에는 구조적 결함이 관찰되지 않았으나, 유체분포를 고려할 때 상부는 기포층(vapor)의 밀도분포가 지배적인 반면에, 하단부에는 기포에 비해 유체가 상대적으로 많이 분포하는 것으로 계측되었다. 본 실험으로부터 밀봉 감마선원을 이용한 가동 중에 있는 대형 증류탑의 tray에 대한 구조적 건전성 및 내부 유체분포에 대한 정보를 성공적으로 제시하였다.

The phase transformation temperature from $\theta$- to $\alpha$-alumina was lowered from 1214$^{\circ}C$ to 114$0^{\circ}C$ in DSC by treating ${\gamma}$-alumina obtained by calcination of boehmite at $700^{\circ}C$ for 2hrswith $\alpha$-Al2O3 seeds (d50=0.36${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) and 3wt% of the alumina sol. $\alpha$-Al2O3 seeds seemed to lower to the transformation temperature and the alumina sol suppressed the high temperature agglormeration. The effect was increased as the amount of the sol was increased, which was supported by TEM and particle size distribution. For an example, spherical ${\gamma}$-alumina powder with d50=0.54${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ was prepared by treating the ${\gamma}$-alumina with 9 wt% of the alumina sol and 3wt% of the $\alpha$-Al2O3. It sintered to 99% of the theoretical density at 150$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs. and it had relatively homogeneous microstructure with 2~3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ sized grains.

화학기상응축공정법으로 세 가지 분해온도에서 제조된 나노 Fe-N 시료들을 뫼스바우어 분광기, XRD와 BET를 이용하여 자기적 특성의 변화를 연구하였다. 분해온도가 낮을수록 ${\gamma}'-Fe_4N$의 형성이 용이하였으며, 중간온도에서의 ${\epsilon}-Fe_{2.12}N$을 거쳐 높은 분해온도에서는 ${\gamma}-Fe$가 주로 형성되었다. 높은 분해온도에서는 Fe와 N이 서로 잘 결합되지 못하였는데, 이는 Fe와 N을 결합시키기 위해서는 분해온도를 낮게 하는 것이 바람직하다는 것을 의미한다.

This experiment was conducted to investigate radurization effects of gamma ray and electron beam irradiation at 1.5 and 3.0 kGy on beef steaks during 8 days of storage at 5$^{\circ}C$. Total bacteria count, psychrotrophs, mesophiles and thermophiles were analyzed at 2 days intervals. Nonirradiated beef steak was used a scontrol Total bacteria counts, psychrotrophs, mesophiles and thermophiles of the control samples showed 3.03∼4.72 logCFU / g at 0 day and increased to 7.67∼10.90 logCFU / g during 8 days storage except thermophiles. Total bacteria counts, psychrotrophs and mesophiles of beef steaks at 8 days were significantly (p＜0.05) decreased to 3.61∼5.43 logCFU / g by gamma ray and to 3.83∼7.02 logCFU / g by electron beam irradiation at 1.5 and 3.0 kGy. Thermophiles of all irradiated samples at any dose were not detectable through 8 days storage. These results suggested that both gamma ray and electron beam irradiation were effective to extend lag phase of bacterial growth of refrigerated beef. Gamma ray irradiation was better than electron beam irradiation in terms of radurization effects of beef.

Ni/$Ni_3$Al-$Ni_3$Nb(${\gamma}$/${\gamma}$'-${\delta}$), Ni-$Ni_3$Nb(${\gamma}$-${\delta}$) 공정복합재료를 일방향 응고하였으며, 성장속도에 따른 경도변화, 고온에서 미세조직의 안정성을 층상간격의 영향에 대해 연구하였다. 초내열합금 공정복합재료의 층상간격은 ${\lambda}^2$R＝상수라는 관계식에 의하여 성장속도(R)와 함께 변화하였다. 초내열합금 공정복합 재료를 위한 항온열처리의 결과는 이 연구에 이용되었다. 공정복합재료는 고온에서 미세구조의 안정성이 층상간격의 증가 때문에, 경도는 성장속도의 증가 때문에 향상되었다.

Tachykinin peptide의 구조와 생리활성간의 상관관계를 조사하기 위해 고상법으로 합성한 어류 유래의 neuropeptide $\gamma$(Mammalian-, Bowfin- 그리고 Shark-neuropeptide $\gamma$)를 사용하였다. 이들의 이차 구조를 알아보기 위해 circular dichroism (CD)을 이용하였다. CD 연구 결과에 따르면, mammalian-neuropeptide $\gamma$, bowfin-neuropeptide $\gamma$와 shark-neuropeptide $\gamma$는 완충액과 인공지질막 조건하에서 random구조를 나타내었다. 또한 이들 neuropeptide $\gamma$의 장관에 대한 수축 활성을 조사하기 위해 guinea-pig의 회장, rat의 십이지장과 carp intestine을 사용하였다. Carp intestine에 서 bowfin-neuropeptide $\gamma$>shark- neuropeptide $\gamma$>mammalian-neuropeptide $\gamma$순으로 활성 이 나타났다. 그러나, guinea-pig 회장과 rat 십이지장에 대해서 mammalian-NP$\gamma$의 활성이 어류 유래의 neuropeptide $\gamma$들보다 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과들은 neuropeptide $\gamma$가 종-특이적인 활성을 나타냄을 제시한다.

Zero to tension fatigue tests and strain controlled fatigue tests were carried out to find how initial strain induced martensite, ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ affects low and high cycle fatigue behavior and fatigue crack growth mechanisms. Microscopic study and phase analysis were carried out with TEM, SEM, EDAX, Optical Microscope, Ferriscope, and X-ray diffractometry. The amount of Initial ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ was controlled from 0% to 33% by controlling the temperatures for cold working and heat treatment. Lower contents of initial ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ showed higher fatigue resistance in low cycle fatigue but lower fatigue resistance in high cycle fatigue because it is ascribed to the more transformation of ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ martensite during low cycle fatigue and higher ductility. In high cycle fatigue, fatigue life is attributed to the strength and phase transformation of austenite into ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ during fatigue was negligible. ${\gamma}$ boundary, ${\gamma}/twin$ boundary, and ${\gamma}/{\alpha}^{\prime}$ boundary were found to be the preferred site of fatigue crack initiation.

The catalytic oxidation of toluene in low concentration was investigated over manganese oxide/$\gamma$-A1$_{2}$O$_{3}$ catalysts. As increased manganese loading, the conversion of toluene increased at a lower temperature. The 18.2wt$\%$ Mn/$\gamma$-Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ appeared to be the most active catalyst. XRD results indicated that most of the catalysts exist as MnO$_{2}$ and Mn$_{2}$O$_{3}$ crystalline phase. After the reaction, the used and the fresh catalysts were characterized by XPS. For the used catalyst, a prominent feature has increased. TPR profiles of 18.2 wt$\%$ Mn/$\gamma$-Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ changed significantly as the manganese loading increased at a lower temperature.
