  • 중성자교정실내에서 $D_2O$ 감속 $^{252}Cf$중성자선원을 사용하여 계측기를 교정할 때는 그 계측기에 대한 교정실산란보정 인자를 미리 결정하여야 한다. 이러한 교정실산란보정인자는 계측기의 종류, 교정거리, 교정실형태에 따라 다르게 결정된다. 본 연구에서는 한국원자력연구소에서 운영하는 2차 표준중성자교정실에서 한가지의 열형광선량계와 2가지의 구형검출기에 대한 교정실산란보정인자를 실험적으로 결정하였고 본소의 2차 표준중성자교정실조건에 의하여 이론적으로 예측한 값과 비교하였다. 비교한 결과 실험하여 얻어진 상기의 3가지 계측기에 대한 교정실산란보정인자가 이론적으로 예측한 결과와 최대 약 10% 이내에서 일치하였다.

  • The purpose of this study is to assess the additional neutron effective dose during passive scattering proton therapy. Monte Carlo code (Monte Carlo N-Particle 6) simulation was conducted based on a precise modeling of the National Cancer Center's proton therapy facility. A three-dimensional neutron effective dose profile of the interior of the treatment room was acquired via a computer simulation of the 217.8-MeV proton beam. Measurements were taken with a $^3He$ neutron detector to support the simulation results, which were lower than the simulation results by 16% on average. The secondary photon dose was about 0.8% of the neutron dose. The dominant neutron source was deduced based on flux calculation. The secondary neutron effective dose per proton absorbed dose ranged from $4.942{\pm}0.031mSv/Gy$ at the end of the field to $0.324{\pm}0.006mSv/Gy$ at 150 cm in axial distance.

  • 화장률의 증가로 매장중심에서 화장중심의 문화로 바뀐 우리나라는 봉안을 선호하였으나 봉안시설의 사후 처리문제 등으로 화장한 유골의 새로운 처리 방법인 '자연장 제도'를 도입했다. 화장이후 봉안과 자연장 방법 이외의 산골도 요구되고 있으나 현실까지는 법제화되어 있지 않다. 본 연구는 화장한 유골을 처리하는 산골에 대한 문헌고찰을 장사등에관한 법률에서 정한 '화장한 유골을 뿌리는 시설'에 대해 현황 조사하였다. 조사 결과 화장한 유골을 뿌리는 시설은 공설화장시설 58개소 중 총 42개소가 있었는데 그중 40개소 시설의 명칭이 유택동산이었다. 수도권 공설화장시설 종사자에게 '화장한 유골을 뿌리는 시설'인 산골시설에 대해 설문조사를 실시하였다. 분석결과 95.9%가 산골시설을 알고 있다고 했으며 88.2%는 개선할 부분이 있다고 답하였다. 본 연구는 현황조사와 분석결과를 토대로 산골의 법제화와 산골시설의 다양화 및 현대화 등 개선방안을 제언하고 있다.

  • Radar target identification can be achieved by using various radar signatures, such as one-dimensional(1-D) range profile, 2-D radar images, and 1-D or 2-D scattering centers on a target. In this letter, five 1-D scattering center extraction methods are discussed - TLS(Total Least Square)-Prony, Fast Root-MUSIC (Multiple Signal Classification), Matrix-Pencil, GEESE(GEneralized Eigenvalues utilizing Signal-subspace Eigenvalues), TLS-ESPRIT(Total Least Squares - Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariance Technique), These methods are compared in the context of estimation accuracy as well as a computational efficiency using a noisy data. Finally these methods are applied to the target classification experiment with the measured data in the POSTECH compact range facility.

  • Based on the random-vibration-theory methodology, dynamic responses of nuclear facilities subjected to obliquely incidental and incoherent earthquake ground motions are calculated. The spectral power density functions of the 6-degree-of-freedom motions of a rigid foundation due to the incoherent ground motions are obtained with the local wave scattering and wave passage effects taken into consideration. The spectral power density function for the pseudo-acceleration of equipment installed on a structural floor is derived. The spectral acceleration of the equipment or the in-structure response spectrum is then estimated using the peak factors of random vibration. The approach is applied to nuclear power plant structures installed on half-spaces, and the reduction of high-frequency earthquake responses due to obliquely incident incoherent earthquake ground motions is examined. The influences of local wave scattering and wave passage effects are investigated for three half-spaces with different shear-wave velocities. When the shear-wave velocity is sufficiently large like hard rock, the local wave scattering significantly affects the reduction of the earthquake responses. In the cases of rock or soft rock, the earthquake responses of structures are further affected by the incident angles of seismic waves or the wave passage effects.

  • The objective of this study was to conduct a radiation shielding analysis for the facility equipped with radiation generator. The analysis was carried out in two aspects. First, from the aspect of the effect caused by primary and leakage radiation. Second, effect of scattered radiation was evaluated by applying a simple calculation method based on a scattering rate concept since effect of scattered radiation is significantly important at maze entrance of the radiation facility. The calculated results obtained using the simple method were compared to the results calculated using Geant4 code and the measured values. The results calculated by the suggested method indicate that slight error exists in a radiation shielding analysis done at the maze entrance comparing to other two results, while the results evaluated at the outside of the maze entrance door are relatively consistent with other values.

  • 공기중 산란감마선의 조직등가선량을 수정 단일산란근사법에 의하여 계산하였다. 공기중 산란 조직등가선량은 축적인자 및 지수감쇄 등 관심위치에서의 에너지 스펙트럼 및 3차원의 기하학적 산란체적을 고려하여 계산하였다. 이 계산방법은 차폐벽으로 둘러쌓인 농학적이용 목적의 대표적 감마조사시설과 시설의 방사선원의 방출감마선이 일정 범위내에만 조사되도록 하는 장치가 부착된 조사시설에 적용할 수 있도록 수정하였다. 선원과 피조사체 사이의 거리가 35m에서 300m 내에 있는 여러 위치에서의 에너지 스펙트럼, 각분포 그리고 조직등가선량율에 대한 계산결과를 얻었다. 3차원 계산방법에 의하여 구한 본 계산결과와 2차원 계산방법에 의하여 얻은 결과를 실제 측정값과 비교한 결과에 의하여 본 결과가 전반적으로실제 측정값과 좋은 일치를 보여 주었다. 만일에 차폐체에서의 에너지와 각 분포가 중요하지 않다고 하면 3차원 계산방법을 도입한 단일산란근사법은 일반적으로 감마조사 시설에서 공기중 산란방사선 문제들을 취급하는 데에 적합함을 알았다.

  • Argonne National Laboratory of the United States and Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology (KIPT) of Ukraine have cooperated on the development, design, and construction of a neutron source facility. The facility was constructed at Kharkov, Ukraine, and its commissioning process is underway. The facility will be used for researches, producing medical isotopes, and training young nuclear specialists. The neutron source facility is designed with a provision to include a cryogenically cooled moderator system-a cold neutron source (CNS). This CNS provides low-energy neutrons, which will be used in the scattering experiment and material structures analysis. Cold neutron guides, coated with reflective material for the low-energy neutrons, will be used to transport the cold neutrons to the experimental site. The cold neutron guides would keep the cold neutrons within certain energy and angular space concentrated inside, while most of the gamma rays and high-energy neutrons are not affected by the cold neutron guides. For the KIPT design, the cold neutron guides need to extend several meters outside the main shield of the facility, and curved guides will also be used to remove the gamma and high-energy neutron. The neutron guides should be installed inside a shield structure to ensure an acceptable biological dose in the facility hall. Heavy concrete is the selected shielding material because of its acceptable performance and cost. Shield design analysis was carried out for the CNS guide hall. MCNPX was used as the major computation tool for the design analysis, with neutron and gamma dose calculated separately. Weight windows variance reduction technique was also used in the shield design. The goal of the shield design is to keep the total radiation dose below the $5.0{\mu}Sv/hr$ guideline outside the shield boundary. After a series of iterative MCNPX calculations, the shield configuration and parameters of CNS guide hall were determined and presented in this article.

  • We used in-situ synchrotron X-ray scattering to investigate phase transformations of octahedral tilted monoclinic $SrRuO_3$ (MSRO) and tetragonal SRO (TSRO) thin films on $SrTiO_3$ (STO) substrates. The octahedral tilted MSRO thin films were highly crystalline and the monoclinic distortion angle was $0.45^{\circ}$. The phase transition temperature from the MSRO to TSRO phase occurred at approximately $200^{\circ}C$ as a second order transition. Conversely, no phase transformations of the TSRO thin film occurred within the range from RT to $250^{\circ}C$. The octahedral $RuO_6$ rotation was strongly affected by the phase transformation in the SRO thin films.
