동적섭식경로모델을 사용하여 "목초$\longrightarrow$우유$\longrightarrow$사람"의 핵종이동 경로에 대해 침적시점에 따른 입력변수의 민감도와 결과에 대한 불확실성분석을 수행하였다. Cs-137과 Sr-90의 경우 모든 침적시점에 대해 재부유인자가 가장 높은 중요도를 보였다. 두 핵종에 대해 침적시점에 따른 입력변수의 중요도의 변화는 비슷한 유형을 보였다. 목초의 성장기에서 전이율이 상대적으로 중요도가 높았고, Cs-137의 전이율은 Sr-90의 경우보다 높은 중요도를 나타냈다. 목초의 비성장기에서 Sr-90에 대한 농축인자의 중요도는 매우 높았다.

With regard to the radioactive waste disposal, adsorption properties and migration rates have been evaluated for Cs-137 and Sr-90 with the domestic clay sampled from Cnyang, Sanchong and Mooan. Sorption coefficients (Ksorp) were determined by batch experiments. The measured values of Ksorp were ranged from 8000 to 17,000 ml/gr for Cs-137 of 0.1$\mu$Ci/ml, and from 10,000 to 15,000m1/gr for Sr-90 of 0.l$\mu$Ci/ml. Remarkably, Mooan clay showed lower values of Ksorp than those of the others. This could be explained by the poor soprtion capacity of the quartz found only in the Mooan clay. For the quantitative analysis, sorption isotherm equations of Freundlich type were made with the obtained values of Ksorp. $C_{R}$=18.0 $C_{A}$$^{0.74}$ : Cs-137, $C_{R}$=0.84 $C_{A}$$^{0.45}$ : Sr-90. By introducing the BOX model combined with the above relationships, simulation of underground nuclide movement was carried out. The results showed that the domestic clays could be the effective backfill material for repositories.itories.ies.

The derived intervention levels in Korean foodstuffs were estimated using the dynamic ingestion pathway model which was developed considering Korean environment. The derived intervention levels were estimated from the intervention level of dose based on the thyroid committed dose equivalent of infant in the case of I-131, and the whole body committed dose equivalent for age groups and 13 kinds foodstuffs in the cases of Cs-137 and Sr-90. The derived intervention levels were shown as a considerable variation with deposition time and radionuclide. The adult was the most important age group in the estimation of derived intervention levels for Cs-137 and Sr-90. In the adult, the derived intervention levels for rice were 2390 and 47 Bq/kg for Cs-137 and Sr-90 in the case of deposition in summer, respectively, and 198 and 79 Bq/kg in the case of deposition in winter, respectively.

For the analysis of ⁹⁰Sr, which is a pure beta emitter, radiochemical separation from the main interfering elements such as Ca, Ba and Ra is required due to their similarity in chemical behavior to strontium. This study describes a radioanalytical procedure using extraction chromatography for separating Sr from interfering elements. The maximum capacity of the resin for Sr was approximately 6 mg per 1.5 mL of bed volume (BV). The recovery of Sr on the resin 1.5 mL (BV) was quantitative for the calcium level of 200 mg at the flow rate of 1 mL min^-1. However the chemical yield declined by increasing the flow rate by up to 5 mL min^-1 even at the calcium level of 200 mg. When using the same BV of Sr resin, the performance of the resin was enhanced as the cross-sectional area of the Sr resin column is small.

A beta ray scanner was proposed for in-situ discrimination of beta and gamma ray radioactivity. This scanner is based on the principle that gamma and beta rays experience different changes in detection efficiency in scintillators with different geometries, especially with regard to the scintillator thickness. The ratios of the counting rates of gamma rays (R_gamma), beta rays (R_beta), and sample measurements (R_total) in a thick scintillator to those in a thin one are reported. The parameter X_thick, which represents the counting rate contributed by beta rays to the total counting rate in the thick scintillator, was derived as a function of those ratios. The values of R_gamma and R_beta for ⁶⁰Co and ⁹⁰Sr sources were estimated as 3.2 ± 0.057 and 0.99 ± 0.0049, respectively. The estimated beta ray contributions had relative standard deviations of 2.05-4.96%. The estimated range of the beta rays emitted from ⁹⁰Sr was 19 mm as per the Monte Carlo N-Particle simulation, and this value was experimentally verified. Homogeneous and surface contaminations of ⁶⁰Co and ⁹⁰Sr-⁹⁰Y were simulated for application of the proposed method. The counting rate contributed by the beta rays was derived and found to be proportional to the concentration of ⁹⁰Sr-⁹⁰Y contamination.

Thermoluminescent (TL) response characteristics of a thin LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si Teflon detectors have been studied for use in beta radiation detection. The detectors were fabricated from a mixture of LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si phosphor and Teflon powder which was molded into a thin disk form of $50mg/cm^2$ thickness. These detectors were irradiated to beta fields of $^{147}Pm,\;^{204}Tl\;and\;^{90}Sr/^{90}Y$ sources with a covering of Kapton foil ($2mg/cm^2$) and photon irradiation was carried out with a $^{137}Cs$ source at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). Batch uniformity was estimated to be 4.7% and the beta dose response presented linear relationship from 0.1 mGy to 100 Gy. The beta energy responses of thin detectors normalized to $^{137}Cs$ were presented as 0.46, 1.09 and 1.06 for $^{147}Pm,\;^{204}Tl\;and\;^{90}Sr/^{90}Y$ beta rays, respectively. The evaluated values for angular responses were $0.93{\pm}0.03\;(^{147}Pm),\;0.94{\pm}0.04\;(^{204}Tl),\;and\;0.92{\pm}0.05\;(^{90}Sr/^{90}Y)$. The results satisfied well a proposed ISO Standard for beta ray dosimeters.

The absorption and translocation of strontium-90 by soybean plant, Glycine max, was studied by applying strontium-90 solution on the foliage or on the soil surface right after the first flowering time under greenhouse conditions. The results are summarized as follows. In the foliar application of strontium-90, only a small portion of the radioactivity was translocated to other parts of the plant and most of it remained in the applied leaves, which should cause soil contamination after falling. In the soil surface application of strontium-90, much of the radioactivity was absorbed through the root and translocated to stems and leaves by different patterns depending on the growth stage.
