A nuclear microprobe system with adjustable precision object slits and a magnetic quadrupole doublet was designed by the beam optics simulation using a first order matrix formalism, and installed in a $30^{\circ}$ beam line connected with KIGAM 1.7 MV Tandem VDG Accelerator. Demagnification factors for x and y axis are calculated to be 25 and 4.9, respectively, and a minimum beam spot side is expected to be about 5 $\mu\textrm{m}$ for 3 MeV proton beams with a current of about 1 nA. A multi-purpose octagonal target chamber has been built to facilitate MeV ion-beam analytical techniques of PIXE, RBS, ERDA, and ion beam micro-machining. It contains X-ray and particle detectors, a zoom microscope, a Faraday cup, a 4-axis sample manipulator and a high vacuum pumping system. The system performance of the nuclear microprobe is now being tested, and automatic manipulator control and data acquisition system will be installed for routine applications of micro ion-beam analytical techniques.

There are so many successful applications to image processing systems in industries. In this study we propose a position detection system for used oil filter by using a line laser. We have been done on the development of line laser as interaction devices. A camera captures images of a display surface of a used oil filter and then a laser beam location is extracted from the captured image. This image is processed and used as a cursor position. We also discuss an algorithm that can distinguish the front part and rear part. In particular we present a robust and efficient linear detection algorithm that allows us to use our system under a variety lighting conditions, and allows us to reduce the amount of image parsing required to find a laser position by an order of magnitude.

X-선 혹은 감마선 등 종래의 방서선 치료는 양성자 혹은 이온에 의한 치료방법의 등장함에 따라 퇴조할 것으로 보인다. 그 이유는, 양성자 등 전하를 띄는 입자치료기술이 치료 후 후유증이나 암의 재발을 현저히 억제시킬 수 있기 때문이다. 전하를 띄는 입자는 암 조직 전후의 정상 조직에 최소한의 피폭을 주나, X-선이나 감마선과 같은 광자들은 암 조직 전후의 정상세포가 암세포로 변화될 수 있는 정도의 피폭량을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. 현재 임상 중인 양성자(혹은 극히 일부의 탄소이온 치료기)치료기는 1990년 미국의 로마린다(Loma Linda) 대학에서 최초로 건립된 방식인 사이클로트론 혹은 싱클로트론 가속기와 빔라인 및 겐트리(gantry)로 구성된다. 그 장치의 거대함만큼이나 가격과 유지비 등에서 일반 소형병원에서 운영하기에는 쉽지 않아 보인다. 이에 본고에서는 소형병원에서도 운영할 수 있는 저비용의 레이저 양성자(이온) 가속방식의 등장 배경과 향후 전망을 논하고자 한다.

The Pohang Light Source (PLS) of Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL), which was constructed in 1994, is a 3rd generation synchrotron light source user facility. It consists of 2.5 GeV linear accelerator and a storage ring with circumference of 280 m. Presently, 27 beamlines around the storage ring are in operation providing synchrotron radiations to users. In addition, PAL has a construction project of the 4th generation light source. In this paper, the operation status of the PLS is described and the prospect of the 4th generation light source is reviewed.

In this paper, we propose the 3D shape reconstruction method that combine the mosaic method and the active stereo matching using the laser beam. The active stereo matching method detects the position information of the irradiated laser beam on object by analyzing the color and brightness variation of left and right image, and acquires the depth information in epipolar line. The mosaic method extracts feature point of image by using harris comer detection and matches the same keypoint between the sequence of images using the keypoint descriptor index method and infers correlation between the sequence of images. The depth information of the sequence image was calculated by the active stereo matching and the mosaic method. The merged depth information was reconstructed to the 3D shape information by wrapping and blending with image color and texture. The proposed reconstruction method could acquire strong the 3D distance information, and overcome constraint of place and distance etc, by using laser slit beam and stereo camera.

Gas target chamber has been developed for producing $^{123}I$ which is radiopharmaceuticals for diagnosis of thyroid cancer, and modeled how to occur nuclear reaction between chamber and $^{124}Xe$ with energy 30MeV inside the gas target chamber by using the MCNPX. The beam energy was lost as the beam spread when beam hit inside the gas target chamber. The cooling water was used not to change the gas target chamber as loss of energy transfer to the thermal energy. Spiral cooling line was designed for cooling the target chamber efficiently. By using the c30 cyclotron, $^{124}Xe(p,2n)$, $^{124}Xe(p,n)$, $^{124}Xe(p,pn)$ nuclear reactions were studied. In this study, we predict the production yield.

펨토세컨드 원적외선 가속장치(Femtosecond Far-infrared Accelerator)에는 5 밴드의 클라이스트론이 사용되고 있으며, 이를 구동시키기 위하여 신뢰성이 높고 컴펙트하며 효율성이 좋은 펄스 모듈레이터가 필요하다. 전통적인 방식의 라인타입 공진충전 펄스 모듈레이터는 직류전원을 만들기 위하여 많은 고전압 소자들을 사용한다. 이러한 소자들로는 SCRs, 3상 트렌스포머, 정류 다이오드, 필터 초크, 필터 커패시터, 충전 인덕터, 충전 다이오드, deQing 회로, de-spiking 초크 둥으로 구성된다. 펨토세컨드 원적외선 가속장치의 펄스 모듈레이터에는 이러한 소자들을 사용하는 대신에 고전압 인버터전원장치를 사용함으로써 신뢰성이 높고 컴펙트하며 효율성이 좋은 펄스 모듈레이터를 제작하였다. 전통적인 방식의 라인타입 공진충전 펄스 모듈레이터는 deQing 회로를 사용해야만 하지만, 펨토세컨드 원적외선 가속장치의 펄스 모듈레이터의 빔 전압의 변동폭은 deQing 회로를 사용하지 않고도 0.5 % 범위안에서 동작하기 때문에 출력이 매우 안정적이다. 고전압 인버터전원장치의 사양은 10 KJ, 50KV, 200mA의 전원장치 4개를 병렬로 사용하여 30 Hz로 운전하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 펨토세컨드 원적외선 가속장치의 펄스 모듈레이터의 디자인개념과 출력전압의 변동폭에 관하여 논의하고자한다.

In this paper, a high-power and low-loss stripline 10-way power divider is designed and fabricated fur the feed network of an S-band linear array antenna with Chebyshev current distribution which has a narrow beam width and low side lobe level(SLL) of 35 dB or more. The unit cell of the power divider is based on a T-junction power divider and the whole divider is comprised of the cascaded unit cells. The multi-stage impedance transformer and modified ring hybrid are used in designing the power divider for performance improvement. And the reflection loss and insertion loss are improved by modifying a connector structure for a coaxial-to-stripline transition.

In this paper, we have designed TDL(True-time Delay Line) for eliminating beam-squint occurring in active phased array antenna with large electrical size operated in wide bandwidth, and have tested its electrical performance. The proposed TDL device is composed of 4-bit microstrip delay line structure and MMIC amplifier for compensation of the delay-line loss. The measured results of gain and phase versus delay state satisfy the electrical requirements, also P1dB output power and noise figure meet the requirement. To verify the performance of fabricated TDL, we have simulated the beam patterns of wide-band active phased array antenna using the measured results and have certified the beam pattern compensation performance. As a result of simulated beam pattern compensation with respect to the 675.8 mm size antenna which is operated in X-band, 800 MHz bandwidth, we have reduced the beam squint error of ${\pm}1^{\circ}$ with ${\pm}0.1^{\circ}$. So this TDL module is able to be applied to active phase array antenna system.

Bathymetry sounding or water depth measurement is becoming more and more sophisticated with the increasing demand in accuracy, resolution and coverage in the recent years. Single beam echo sounding is still utilized to gather single line bathymetric profile in many surveys as ever, although there is an increasing demand for multi-beam echo sounding. Single beam echo sounder system acquires single line profiles of water depth as the vessel travel along the survey line. In this study, we performed single beam echo sounding with GNSS receiver for hydrographic survey at Namgang dam basin to calculate pure sediment. Unlike traditional research, we used not field reference station but NTRIP service of the reference station of DGNSS(Differential Global Navigation Satellite System) Central Office in this GNSS survey. The calculation results show that scouring volume is $603,650m^3$, sediment volume is $3,913,750m^3$ and so pure sediment volume is $3,310,100m^3$ at Namgang dam basin. And the availability of the NTRIP service of the DGNSS Central Office for echo sounding in land area has been confirmed in this study.
