중성자 방사화분석법은 핵반응을 통해 생성시킨 방사성 동위원소로부터 방출되는 방사선을 검색하여 절대적으로 성분원소를 정량하는 핵분석기술(Nuclear Analytical Techniques)이다. 현재 한국원자력연구소의 중성자 방사화분석실에서는 대기환경분야 응용연구로서 수년 동안 대기분진을 채집하여 미량 성분원소를 정량하고 있으며, 방법의 유효화와 측정결과의 신뢰성을 확보하기 위하여 시료의 채집 및 준비, 원소분석, 측정결과의 검증 등 분석과정에 대한 품질관리를 수행하고 있다. (중략)

삶의 질 향상을 위한 쾌적한 대기환경의 관리 유지는 우리 모두의 관심사중의 하나이다. 호흡기관을 통해 인체내로 흡입되는 $PM_{10}$ 대기분진은 자연적이고 인위적인 발생원에 의해 다양한 미량원소들을 함유하고 있기 때문에 흔히 환경영향 평가를 위한 대기관측시료로 이용되고 있으며, 특히 $PM_{2.5}$ 분진의 질량농도(TSPM)나 원소의 농도가 높을 때 장.단기적으로 인체 보건에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. (중략)

A number of Korean potsherd samples has been classified by Fisher's discriminant method for the training set of Kyungki, Koryung and Kyungnam groups. The Koryung samples have been further classified for the training set of Koryung A, B and C subgroups. The training sets have been used to define classification of unknown samples and clay samples so as to find out some similarity between clay samples and certain potsherd groups.

In general the concentration of uranium in natural water such as fresh water and sea water is in the range of 0.01∼5 ppb, therefore trace analytical technique is required. The aim of present work is to compare a direct and preconcentration methods by evaporation and to investigate rapid and accurate trace analysis of uranium in groundwater using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA) which are sensitive and nondestructive method. Identification of analytical procedure was carried out using uranium standard solution of the range of 0.5∼100 ppb. In the given concentration, the deviation of calibration curve was less than 2%, and the standard deviation of measured values at each concentration was the range of 2∼12%. The difference of U content with sampling time for the same sample site was about 10.3%. Using this established method, the concentrations of uranium in samples collected at the 17 spring of Choongchung areas were found to be in the range of 1∼80 ppb.

Inorganic elemental content of bottom ash generated from municipal solid waste incinerator was determined by neutron activation analysis. Bottom ash samples were collected monthly from incinerator located in city D, strained out by the 5 mm sieve, dried by oven and pulverized by agate mortar. The samples were irradiated at NAA #1 irradiation hole in HANARO research reactor of Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute and the irradiated samples were measured by HPGe-gamma-ray spectrometer. From the activity of measured nuclides, 33 elements including As, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Sb and Zn were determined applying activity creation formula and nuclear data. The quality control was conducted by simultaneous analysis with NIST standard reference materials.

In this study, instrumental neutron activation analysis was used to measure the concentrations of about 30 trace elements in airborne particulate (PM2.5) samples at urban area of Daejeon city located in the southwestern region of Korea. An inspection of the measurement data indicates that the distribution patterns of trace elements could clearly distinguish the elements with their concentrations ranging over five orders of magnitude. The mean values for Lu and Dy were found to be the lowest at values of 0.01 and $0.04ng/m^3$, while those for K and Fe showed the highest value of 671 and $653ng/m^3$, respectively. The results of correlation analysis showed that PM2.5 concentrations can exhibit much more enhanced correlations with the elements of earth crustal components. The results of factor analysis further indicated that there are no more than six factors with statistical significance, which may exert dominant roles in regulating the elemental concentration levels in the study area. Enrichment factor analysis supports explicit interpretation of results found by this factor analysis.

The 5th century kiln that produced pottery coffins was found for the first time in Korea, located in the Oryang-dong remains in the city of Naju. This kiln, located in the central area of the Yeongsan River, provides important data for research on mortuary practices in prehistoric society, including the structure of production and patterns of distribution and consumption. For this study, the remains of five ancient tombs and pottery coffins excavated from the 4th century Mandong archaeological site were chosen to determine the area of consumption of pottery coffins produced at the Oryang-dong kiln. The samples from each area of remains were analyzed for minor elements using neutron activation analysis method, and from these results, the identities of the corresponding production areas were investigated using the multi-variant statistical analysis of discriminant analysis. The evidence strongly suggests that pottery coffins produced at the Oryang-dong kiln in Naju were used in ancient tombs of the Bannam mound in Naju, the Okyari mound in Yeongam, and the Banam mound in Hampyeong, reaching those sites through trade and distribution. The findings also suggest that pottery coffins from the Mandong archeological site in Gochang and the Inpyeong mound in Muan were not produced at the Oryang-dong kiln in Naju, but rather were brought from pottery kilns in different production areas, through trade and distribution.
