A single-well push-drift-pull tracer test using two different tracers ($SF_6$ and salt) was performed at the Environmental Impact Test (EIT) site to determine suitable locations for monitoring wells and arrange them prior to artificial $CO_2$ injection and leak tests. Local-scale estimates of hydraulic properties (linear groundwater velocity and effective porosity) were obtained at the study site by the tracer test with two tracers. The mass recovery percentage of the volatile tracer ($SF_6$) was lower than that of the non-volatile tracer (salt) and increased drift time may make degassing of $SF_6$ intensified. The $CO_2$ leakage monitoring results for both unsaturated and saturated zones suggest that the $CO_2$ monitoring points should be located near points at which a high concentration gradient is expected. Based on the estimated hydraulic properties and tracer mass recovery rates, an optimal $CO_2$ monitoring network including boreholes for monitoring the unsaturated zone was constructed at the study site.

Over a period of 5 days between August 12 and 17, 2005, we performed a gas exchange experiment using the dual tracer method in a tidal coastal ocean located off the southern coast of Korea. The gas exchange rate was determined from temporal changes in the ratio of $^3He$ to $SF_6$ measured daily in the surface mixed layer. The measured gas exchange rate($k_{CO_2}$), normalized to a Schmidt number of 600 for $CO_2$ in fresh water at $20^{\circ}C$, was approximately $5.0\;cm\;h^{-1}$ at a mean wind speed of $3.9\;ms^{-1}$ during the study period. This value is significantly less than those obtained from floating chamber-based experiments performed previously in estuarine environments, but is similar in magnitude to values obtained using the dual tracer method in river and tidal coastal waters and values predicted on the basis of the relationship between the gas exchange rate and wind speed (Wanninkhof 1992), which is generally applicable to the open ocean. Our result is also consistent with the relationship of Raymond and Cole (2001), which was derived from experiments carried out in estuarine environments using $^{222}Rn$ and chlorofluorocarbons along with measurements undertaken in the Hudson River, Canada, using $SF_6$ and $^3He$. Our results indicate that tidal action in a microtidal region did not discernibly enhance the measured $k_{CO_2}$ value.

This study was conducted to qualify the equality of the flow distribution from open channel between rapid mixing basin and flocculation basins in a domestic S_ water treatment plant, and to suggest a remedy for improving the equality. In order to evaluate the feasibility of the suggested remedy, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique are used, and for verifying the CFD simulation results tracer tests were carried out. From the results of CFD simulation and tracer tests, it was investigated that the modification of hydraulic structure in the distribution channel, which is to install the longitudinal orifice baffle in flow direction, could improve the equality of the flow distribution over 75%.

For the fabrication of PMOS and integrated semiconductor devices, B, $BF_2$ and dual elements with B and $BF_2$ can be implanted in silicon. 15 keV B ions were implanted in silicon at $7^{\circ}$ wafer tilt and a dose of $3.0{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-2}$. 67 keV $BF_2$ ions were implanted in silicon at $7^{\circ}$ wafer tilt and a dose of $3.0{\times}10^{15}\;cm^{-2}$. For dual implantations, 67 keV $BF_2$ and 15keV B were carried out with two implantations with dose of $1.5{\times}10^{15}\;cm^{-2}$ instead of $3.0{\times}10^{15}\;cm^{-2}$, respectively. For the electrical activation, the implanted samples were annealed with rapid thermal annealing at $1,050^{\circ}C$ for 30 seconds. The implanted profiles were characterized by using secondary ion mass spectrometry in order to measure profiles. The implanted and annealed results show that concentration profiles for the ${BF_2}^+$ implant are shallower than those for a single $B^+$ and dual ($B^+$ and ${BF_2}^+$) implants in silicon. This effect was caused by the presence of fluorine which traps interstitial silicon and ${BF_2}^+$ implants have lower diffusion effect than a single and dual implantation cases. For the fabricated diodes, current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) were also measured with HP curve tracer and C-V plotter. Electrical measurements showed that the dual implant had the best result in comparison with the other two cases for the turn on voltage characteristics.

The role of scintigraphic imaging has moved from the detection of lesions to the tissue-specific characterization of lesions over the past 2 decades. Major advances in nuclear medicine imaging include: 1) positron imaging, 2) improved instrumentation, such as the use of multidetector (dual or triple head) gamma cameras for single photon emission computed tomography, and 3) development of numerous new radiopharmaceuticals for positron or single photon imaging (labeled glucose analogue, amino acids, fatty acids, hormones, drugs, receptor ligands, monoclonal antibodies, etc). These advances have resulted in a significantly improved efficacy of radionuclide techniques for the evaluation of various tumors, including those within the liver. The current role of nuclear medicine in the evaluation of focal hepatic tumors is reviewed in this article with an emphasis on the clinical applications of various tracer studies and imaging findings.

개발사업과 산업발달로 인하여 발생되는 유해화학물질과 유류사용량이 늘면서 화학물질과 유류를 저장하는 지하저장탱크에서의 오염물질 유출로 토양 및 지하수 오염이 심각해지고 있다. 또한, 산업지역, 공장지대가 밀집된 매립 지반에서는 투수계수가 낮아 오염물질 추출에 한계가 있다. 이러한 문제해결 방안의 하나로 연약지반 개량공법에서 사용되고 있는 연직배수재를 이용하여 기존의 복원기술인 토양세정공법의 효율을 증진시킨 연직배수시스템에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 오염된 지반의 복원을 목적으로 사용한 연직배수시스템의 적용성 평가를 위하여 오염토양 복원시 오염지반에 영향을 주는 인자에 대한 유효성 등을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 연직배수시스템의 적용성을 위하여 오염토양 복원시 오염지반에 영향을 주는 인자에 대한 공학적 특성을 바탕으로 파일럿 규모의 실내 오염복원 실험을 통한 오염물질의 복원효율 등을 분석하였다. 또한, 염화나트륨을 복원실험의 추적자로 사용하였고, 도출된 결과를 바탕으로 SEEP/W와 CTRAN/W 유한요소해석 프로그램을 이용하여 압력수두와 지속시간에 따른 농도변화, 각각의 지반조건에 대한 복원률의 오염물질 흐름 해석을 통한 유효성을 평가하였다. 결과, 오염지반의 투수계수는 흐름속도와 연직배수재를 통한 추출률과 관계되며, 흐름속도와 추출률은 분산지수에 영향을 미치게 되어 결국 원위치 오염복원 과정시 중요한 역할을 하게 된다.

M104 (NGC 4594, the Sombrero) is an intriguing disk galaxy classified as an elliptical galaxy nowadays. It hosts a luminous bulge and a massive disk, but it is still mysterious how M104 acquired such peculiar structures. Globular clusters are an useful tracer to investigate the formation history of early-type galaxies. In this study we present a wide field imaging study of the globular clusters in M104. Using wide ($1^{\circ}{\times}1^{\circ}$) and deep ugi images of M104 obtained with the CFHT/MegaCam observations, we detect a large number of globular clusters. The color distribution of these globular clusters shows that there are two subpopulations: a metal-poor system and a metal-rich system. The radial number density of the metal-poor globular clusters shows a long tail reaching R ~ 30' (~ 80 kpc), indicating clearly the existence of a giant metal-poor halo in M104. This result is consistent with the previous studies on the dual halos of massive early-type galaxies. We will discuss implications of these results in relation with the formation history of M104.

효과적인 물환경관리계획을 수립하기 위해서는 다양한 기원의 유기물이 난분해성 유기물 농도 증가에 영향을 줄 수 있는지 여부를 파악하는 것이 중요하다. 특히 상당량의 광합성 산물은 식물플랑크톤에 의해 매일 생성되고 있지만, 이들이 수계 내 난분해성 유기물에 기여하는지에 대한 정보는 부족하다. 본 연구에서는 $^{13}C$ 및 $^{15}N$ 추적자 첨가실험을 통해 조류기원 유기물이 생분해(60일, 암배양) 및 산화제(과망간산칼륨) 처리 후 분해되지 않고 잔존하는지 여부를 확인하였다. 생분해 실험 결과 광합성을 통해 생성된 총 유기탄소($TO^{13}C$), 입자성 유기탄소($PO^{13}C$), 입자성 질소($P^{15}N$)는 각각 26%, 20%, 17%가 비 생분해성 유기물로 잔존하였다. 또한 상당량의 $PO^{13}C$가 과망간산칼륨에 의해 산화되지 않고 잔존하였다(초기: 12%, 60일 암배양 후: 38%). 이는 미생물에 의해 사용된 후 남아있는 조류기원 유기물이 난분해성 유기물에 기여할 수 있음을 의미한다. 또한 미생물에 의해 변형된 조류기원 유기물의 양은 COD 산화율 및 유기물 지표 간 격차에 영향을 줄 것으로 사료된다.

A 71-year-old woman was assigned to our department for Tc-99m myocardial perfusion SPECT(MPS) and coronary CT angiography. She admitted for substernal pain, via the ER, 2 days ago. The heart was scanned after intravenous injection of 925 MBq of $^{99m}Tc$-sestamibi adenosine-induced stress SPECT using dual head gamma camera (Hawkeye, GE healthcare. USA). The MPS shows decreased tracer uptake in the apical & mid area of anterior & lateral wall and mid & basal inferior wall. Coronary CT angiograph was obtained using Discovery VCT (GE healthcare). 3D angiography portrayed significant stenosis of ramus intermedius(RI) and posterolateral branch of right coronary artery(PLB) with fibrocalcified plaque. Two images were fused using Cardiac IQ fusion softwear package (Advantage workstation 4.4, GE healthcare) The fusion images explain the perfusion defect of anterior, lateral and inferior wall is due to stenosis of the RI and PLB. And 3 days later, coronary angiography was done and revealed the marked stenosis of RI and PLB. Then balloon angioplasty and stent was instituted in RI. Cardiac SPECT/CT fusion imaging provides additional information about hemodynamic relevance and facilitates lesion interpretation by allowing exact allocation of perfusion defects to its subtending coronary artery.
