  • Since the launch of the Herschel Space Observatory, our understanding about the photo-dissociation regions (PDR) has taken a step forward. In the bandwidth of the Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) of the Spectral and Photometric Imaging REceiver (SPIRE) on board Herschel, ten CO rotational transitions, including J = 4 - 3 to J = 13 - 12, and three fine structure lines, including [$C{\small{I}}$] 609, [$C{\small{I}}$] 370, and [$N{\small{II}}$] $205{\mu}m$, are covered. I present our findings from the FTS observations at the nuclear region of M83, based on the spatially resolved physical parameters derived from the CO spectral line energy distribution (SLED) map and the comparisons with the dust properties and star-formation tracers. This article discusses (1) the potential of using [$N{\small{II}$] 205 and [$C{\small{I}}$] $370{\mu}m$ as star-formation tracers; (2) the excitation mechanisms of warm CO in the nuclear region of M83.

  • Belief network(or Bayesian network) based on Bayes' rule in probabilistic theory can be applied to the reasoning of diagnostic systems. This paper describes the basic theory of concept and feasibility of using the network for diagnosis of nuclear power plants. An example shows that the probabilities of root causes of a failure are calculated from the measured or believed evidences.

  • Simulation is a widely used functional verification method for FBD programs of PLC-based digital I&C system in nuclear power plants. It is difficult, however, to estimate the thoroughness (i.e., effectiveness or quality) of a simulation in the absence of any clear measure for the estimation. This paper proposes two sets of structural coverage adequacy criteria for the FBD simulation, toggle coverage and modified condition/decision coverage, which can estimate the thoroughness of simulation scenarios for FBD programs, as recommended by international standards for functional safety. We developed two supporting tools to generate numerous simulation scenarios and to measure automatically the coverages of the scenarios. The results of our experiment on five FBD programs demonstrated that the measures and tools can help software engineers estimate the thoroughness and improve the simulation scenarios quantitatively.

  • Neurotransmitter imaging with radiopharmaceuticals plays major role for understanding of neurological and psychiatric disorders such as Parkinson's disease and depression. Radiopharmaceuticals for neurotransmitter imaging can be divided to dopamine transporter imaging radiopharmaceuticals and serotonin trnasporter imaging radiopharmaceuticals. Many kinds of new dopamine transporter imaging radiopharmcaeuticals has a tropane ring and they showed different biological properties according to the substituted functional group on tropane ring. After the first clinical trials with $[^{123}I]{\beta}-CIT$, alkyl chain substituent introduced to tropane ring amine to decrease time for imaging acquisition and to increase selectivity. From these results, $[^{123}I]PE2I$, [18F]FE-CNT, $[^{123}I]FP-CIT$ and $[^{18}F]FP-CIT$ were developed and they showed high uptake on the dopamine transporter rich regions and fast peak uptake equilibrium time within 4 hours after injection. $[^{11}C]McN$ 5652 was developed for serotonin trnasporter imaging but this compound showed slow kinetics and high background radioactivity. To overcome these problems, new diarylsulfide backbone derivatives such as ADAM, ODAM, AFM, and DASB were developed. In these candidates, $[^{11}C]AFM$ and $[^{11}C]DASB$ showed high binding affinity to serotonin transporter and fast in vivo kinetics. This paper gives an overview of current status on dopamine and serotonin transporter imaging radiopharmaceuitcals and the development of new lead compounds as potential radiopharmaceuticals by medicinal chemistry.

  • 처분장 구조물의 주요방벽 재료중의 하나인 콘크리트에서의 핵종확산계수를 측정하기 위하여 내부확산법을 적용하였다. 핵종은 양이온과 음이온을 대표하는 Cs 과 I 이었으며, 고체 시료는 양생된 순수시멘트 또는 시멘트와 모레를 섞은 몰타르로 물과 시멘트의 비 (W/C) 를 변화시켰다. 용액은 표준 제조방법에 따라 제조된 합성지하수이었다. Curve fitting 법을 이용한 모델과 실험의 비교로부터 핵종의 확산계수를 계산하였다. 순수시멘트의 경우 Cs 의 겉보기 확산계수는 1.7 $\times$ $10^{-12}$~1.4 $\times$ $10^{-11}$ m$^2$/sec 의 범위로 W/C 가 증가할수록 컸으며 I 는 2.9 $\times$ $10^{-14}$ ~ 1.0 $\times$ $10^{-l3}$ $m^2$/sec의 범위로 또한 W/C 에 따라 증가하였다. 몰타르의 경우 W/C 가 클수록 Cs 의 확산계수는 증가하였으나 I 에 대해서는 큰 변화를 보여주지 않았다 본 실험에서 얻어진 핵종의 유효확산계수값이 $10^{-13}$ ~ $10^{-10}$ m$^2$/sec의 범위를 갖는 것으로 보아 공극확산이 핵종확산의 지배 메커니즘임이 예상되었다.
