  • The microwave discharge ion engine generates plasmas of both the main ion source and the neutralizer using 4㎓ microwave without discharge electrodes and hollow cathodes, so that long life and durability against oxygen and air are expected. The MUSES-C “HAYABUSA” asteroid explorer installing four microwave discharge ion engines “$\mu$10s” was launched into deep space by M-V rocket No.5 on May 9, 2003. After vacuum exposure and several runs of baking for reduction of residual gas the ion engine system established the continuous acceleration of the spacecraft toward the asteroid “ITOKAWA”. The Doppler shift measurement of the communication microwave revealed the performance of ion engines, which is 8mN thrust force for a single unit with 3,200sec specific impulse at 23mN/㎾ thrust power ratio. At the end of 2003 the accumulated operational time exceeded 8,000 hour and unit. HAYABUSA will execute the Earth swing-by on June 2004 and arrive at the asteroid in 2005 and return to Earth in 2007.

  • 전기 추진시스템은 저렴한 개발비와 높은 신뢰성을 제공하는 추진 장치로 많은 분야에서 응용 되어 왔다. 특히 최근에 발사된 SMART-1과 MUSES-C는 우리에게 시사하는 바가 크다. 각각 European Space Agency(ESA)와 Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency(JAXA)에서 개발한 행성 탐사선으로, SMART-1은 달 탐사를 목적으로 하고 MUSES-C는 소행성 Itokawa의 토양을 채취해오는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이 두 탐사선에는 각각 Hall effect thruster와 Micro wave ion engine이 탑재되었는데, 작고 저렴한 비용의 탐사선을 이용해서 충분히 행성 탐사가 가능하다는 좋은 선례를 남겼다. 현재 개발되고 있는 과학기술위성 3호(STSAT-3)에도 전기추진 장치가 탑재되는데, SMART-1에 탑재 되었던 것과 유사한 Hall effect thruster가 인공위성 연구센터와 KAIST 물리학과의 GDPL과 공동으로 개발되고 있다. 성능이 좋은 전기 추력 장치를 개발하기 위해 추력기 내부에서 발생하는 플라즈마의 물리적 특성을 파악하는 것은 매우 중요한 일이다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 플라즈마의 특성을 모사하는 방법으로 Particle In Cell 모사와 더불어 독립적인 개개 입자의 운동을 기술하는 입자모사(particle simulation)를 이용하는 방법을 제시 하고자 한다. 이러한 접근 방법은 실제 전기추력장치를 설계하고 실험하는 담당자에게 플라즈마 운동에 대한 명료한 지식을 제공해 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

  • On 9/5/2003, the planet probe “HAYABUSA” as MUSES-C project was launched by The Institute of Space and Astronautical Science. “HAYABUSA” has microwave discharge ion engines and these engines are characterized by their high efficiency and specific impulse in comparison with chemical engine. A large ion engine can be used as a planet explorer, while a small ion engine can be used as attitude control of small satellite. We have been developing a high thrust density microwave discharge ion engine using “Multi-Monopole Antenna”. The performance of this engine are: ion cost of 344W/A, propellant utilization efficiency of 52% and thrust density of 0.055mN/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for Kr gas flow rate of 2.5sccm, microwave(2.45㎓) power of 32W and acceleration voltage of l.4㎸.

  • This study has investigated the effect of dietary attitudes on nutritional status of nurses living in Kyungnam province. A total of 249 muses working at hospitals in the Kyungnam area participated in this study. The general characteristics and dietary attitudes of the subjects were surveyed using a self-administered questionnaire, and nutrient intakes were examined using one day 24-hour recall method from November 14 to December 20, in 2001. The data of nutrient intakes were analyzed by the Computer Aided Nutritional Analysis Program and then the diet quality was estimated using the Index of Nutritional Quality (INQ). The subjects were classified as the high score group (17.3 %), medium score group (54.2%), and low score group (28.5%) based on dietary attitude score. The results were as follows: Average age of subjects was 27.1 years old, average nursingexperience was 5.7 years, and 70.7% of the subjects graduated from a junior college. The rate of shift work (45.4%) and non-shift work (54.6%) were similar. The average score on dietary attitudes in thehigh score group was 78.8, and those in he medium score group and in the low score group were 58.6 and 40.8 out of 100 points respectively. The average intake of energy (p < 0.001), carbohydrate (p < 0.001), protein (p < 0.05), animal protein (p < 0.01), animal fat (p < 0.05), vitamin $B_1$ (p < 0.01), vitamin $B_2$ (p < 0.0l), niacin (p < 0.001), Ca (p < 0.001), Fe (p < 0.001), animal Fe (p < 0.01), P (p < 0.001), and crude fiber (p < 0.00l), were significantly higher in the high score group than those in the medium score group and low score group. In the high score group, the average intake of protein, vitamin $B_1$, niacin, vitamin C and P were above 125% of the Korean RDA, and in medium score group, those of vitamin C and P, and in low score group, that of vitamin C were above 125% of the Korean RDA. In the high score group, nutrient of intake below 75% of the Korean RDA was Ca, and those in medium score group were vitamin $B_2$, Ca, and Fe, and those in low score group were energy, vitamin $B_2$, Ca and Fe. The intake ratio of Ca and P showed an unbalanceof 1:2, and that of animal protein/plant protein, and that of animal fat/plant fat were high (1.45-1.64) in all group;. The dietary attitude had a positive correlation (p < 0.00l) with nutrition intake except vitamin A and vitamin C.
