  • A RF front-end module is designed for GIS(Gas Insulated Substation) which is employed for effective and efficient very high voltage transmission. Major advantage of the unit is improved PO detection sensitivity through minimizing the effect of surrounding interference signals, which is achieved by controlling the gain and the selection of the frequency band, for the precise detection of any UHF PO (Partial Discharge) disturbance occurred in the GIS due to some unwanted problems. For the development of the module, various switches for providing selected signal paths, wideband LNA, 3 BPF for selecting detection frequency band, and video detector are designed, fabricated and measured on 1 mm FR4 substrate with various RF components. The detection sensitivity of the unit was <-60 dBm that is sufficient to detect UHF PO signals as low as 1 pC. It is believed that the value is enough to detect the signal occurred in GIS.

  • There are two basic concepts in industrial radiographic examination; one is a radio-graphic sensitivity, and the other is a acceptance criteria. The comparison of these main points are studied for KS Standard and ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. From the results of the experiment, higher radiographic sensitivity is required in KS Standard when the thickness of material to be examined is less than 20mm in single wall technique. The acceptance criteria for linear type indications are described on same concept in two standards, whereas the acceptance criteria for rounded indications of KS Standard which mainly depends upon the object thickness are more severe than those of ASME BPV Code.

  • We present high-resolution, high-sensitivity continuum data of NGC 4522 observed at 3 cm (X-band) and 10 cm (S-band) in full polarization mode using the JVLA. This observation has 2 - 4 times better spatial resolution and 2 - 5 times better sensitivity compared to previous continuum observations. NGC 4522 is a Virgo spiral galaxy undergoing active ram pressure stripping. This galaxy is particularly well known for the CO emission detected outside its stellar disk, some of which coincides with the extraplanar HI gas and Halpha patches. The major goal of our JVLA observation is to leverage our understanding of the influence of the ram pressure on the general ISM field and multi-phase medium. By combining our new deep radio continuum data and previous observations, we will investigate how the B-field properties can be affected by the ram pressure, and what roles the B-field plays in the stripping process of the multi-phased ISM and in the star formation activity when the ram pressure is present.

  • As the most sensitive radio interferometer ever operated in millimeter/submillimeter, the ALMA has opened a new window on extragalactic astronomy. Its superior resolution and sensitivity allow the community to study the gas kinematics of distant galaxies as well as the molecular gas properties of nearby galaxies in GMC scale, already in its early commissioning stage. Also the ALMA provides a great tool to probe the dust contents of extragalactic sources at all redshifts, which is important in understanding of galaxy formation and evolution history over cosmic time. In this presentation, I will review the ALMA capabilities with the emphasis on the extragalactic science. I will also revisit some highlights from the early science and discuss future perspectives.

  • 본 논문에서는 KVN의 광대역 VLBI 관측을 위한 백엔드 시스템으로써 도입한 32 Gbps 급 관측장비의 기본적인 시험결과에 대해 고찰한다. 천문학자들은 천체의 초미세 구조를 관측하고자 성능이 우수한 큰 전파망원경을 만들고 싶지만, 많은 돈이 소요된다. 따라서 민감도를 높이기 위해 수신시스템의 성능개선이나 넓은 주파수 대역폭을 관측하는 방법을 도입하고 있다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 넓은 관측 주파수 대역폭을 관측하기 위해서는 아날로그 신호를 초고속으로 변환하는 광대역 샘플링 방법과 디지털 필터링을 수행하는 광대역 샘플러를 도입하였다. 광대역 샘플러(OCTAD-K)는 최대 16Gsps-2bit 샘플링을 지원하며, 디지털필터링 기술을 이용하여 다양한 관측대역폭의 관측을 지원한다. 특히 KVN의 4주파수 동시관측시스템과 VERA의 2-beam 관측시스템을 지원할 수 있도록 설계되었다. 그리고 편파관측도 지원할 수 있으며, 관측데이터의 출력의 표준 VDIF 형식을 지원한다. 본 논문에서는 광대역 샘플러를 도입하기 전 수행한 공장검수와 현장시험을 수행한 후 시스템의 성능결과와 문제점 해결 등에 대해 자세히 기술한다.

  • To assess the effects of gamma-ray (Co-60) on radiation sensitivity and genetic similarity of the basidiospore and mycelium in oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus, the D$_{10}$ values and RAPD patterns were analysed. Three strains were isolated from basidiospores (PO-Bl, -B2, and - B3 from 2 kGy irradiation group) and five strains from mycelia (PO-Ml, -M2 from 1 key, PO-M3 from 2 kGy, and PO-M4 and -M5 from 2+1 key irradiation group). The D$_{10}$ values of basidiospore and mycelium of P. Preurotus ostreatus were 1,250 Gy and 500 Gy, respectively. The growth rates of the eight strains on the five media were various and the activities of extracellular chitinases of them were generally higher than those of the control. By the gamma-ray radiation, 22-25% of genetic similarities were changed in the basidiospore strains and 23-36% of them in the mycelium strains. From these results, it seems that the basidiospore could be more radio-resistant than the mycelium of P. ostreatus and that the genetic similarity of the mycelium of P ostrentus could be changed easier than that of the basidiospore by the gamma-ray radiation.ion.

  • In this work, Ga doped ZnO (GZO) films were prepared by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering without intentional substrate heating on glass substrate and then the effect of the intense electron irradiation on structural and electrical properties and the NOx gas sensitivity were investigated. Although as deposited GZO films showed a diffraction peak for ZnO (002) in the XRD pattern, GZO films that electron irradiated at electron energy of 900 eV showed the higher intense diffraction peaks than that of the as deposited GZO films. The electrical property of the films are also influenced with electron's energy. As deposited GZO films showed the three times higher resistivity than that of the films irradiated at 900 eV In addition, the sensitivity for NOx gas is also increased with electron irradiation energy and the film sensor showed the proportionally increased gas sensitivity with NOx concentration. This approach is promising in gaining improvement in the performance of thin film gas sensors used for the detection of hazard gas phase.

  • RFID(Radio-Frequency IDentification)시스템은 무선으로 사물을 식별하는 기술로 물류, 운송, 유통, 재고관리 등과 같은 물품관리를 획기적으로 개선할 수 있는 새로운 방법이다. 그러나 무선을 사용하고 있는 RFID는 통신구간에 대한 보안의 취약성 때문에 정보 누출 및 변조 같은 위험성을 가지고 있다. 우리는 이런 RFID 통신 시스템에 복잡계의 대표적인 계인 Tent-Map을 적용하여 새로운 인증 프로토콜을 설계하였다. 복잡계의 대표적인 특징인 초기치 민감성과 불규칙성을 RFID의 Reader 와 Tag에 적용하여 보다 견고하고 간략한 인증시스템을 설계하였다. 본 논문에서 보인 복잡계를 이용한 RFID 인증 프로토콜 설계는 기존의 Hash 함수나 난수에 의존되었던 인증 시스템에 차별화된 새로운 방법으로 그 활용성을 검증하는데 그 목적이 있다.

  • Background: The current study investigated the effects of Piper longumine on radio-sensitization of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and underlying mechanisms. Materials and Methods: Human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured in vitro and those in logarithmic growth phase were selected for experiments divided into four groups: control, X-ray exposed, Piper longumine, and Piper longumine combined with X-rays. Conogenic assays were performed to determine the radio-sensitizing effects. Cell survival curves were fitted by single-hit multi-target model and then the survival fraction (SF), average lethal dose ($D_0$), quasi-threshold dose ($D_q$) and sensitive enhancement ratio (SER) were calculated. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). Western blot assays were employed for expression of apoptosis-related proteins (Bc1-2 and Bax) after treatment with Piper longumine and/or X-ray radiation. The intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was detected by FCM with a DCFH-DA probe. Results: The cloning formation capacity was decreased in the group of piperlongumine plus radiation, which displayed the values of SF2, D0, Dq significantly lower than those of radiation alone group and the sensitive enhancement ratio (SER) of D0 was1.22 and 1.29, respectively. The cell apoptosis rate was increased by the combination treatment of Piper longumine and radiation. Piper longumine increased the radiation-induced intracellular levels of ROS. Compared with the control group and individual group, the combination group demonstrated significantly decreased expression of Bcl-2 with increased Bax. Conclusions: Piper longumine at a non-cytotoxic concentration can enhance the radio-sensitivity of MDA-MB-231cells, which may be related to its regulation of apoptosis-related protein expression and the increase of intracellular ROS level, thus increasing radiation-induced apoptosis.
