본 논문에서는 아리랑 2호가 운용될 궤도의 우주방사능 환경 및 total ionizing dose(TID) 영향에 대하여 분석하였다. 포획된 양자의 경우 SAA(South Atlantic Anomaly) 지역에 집중되어 있음을 알 수 있었으며, TID에 영향을 미치는 우주 방사능은 포획된 양자 및 전자와 태양양자임을 알 수 있었다. 저 에너지 입자는 알루미늄 차단 구조물을 이용하여 방사능 영향을 효과적으로 차단할 수 있음을 알 수 있었으나, 고 에너지 입자의 경우 구조물의 두께를 증가하여도 방사능 영향을 효과적으로 차단할 수 없음을 알 수 있었다. 아리랑 2호의 임무수명기간 동안 전자부품에 계속적으로 피폭되는 전체 방사량을 알루미늄 차단두께의 함수로 나타내었으며, 이 값들은 아리랑 2호의 전자부품의 선택기준 및 위성체 또는 구성품의 구조물 두께를 설정할 수 있는 기준으로 제시하였다.

Robotics applications are greatly needed in hazardous locations, e.g., fusion and fission reactors, where robots must perform delicate and complex tasks under ionizing radiation conditions. The drawback is that some robotic parts, such as active electronics, are susceptible to radiation. It can lead to unexpected failures and early termination of the robotic operation. This paper analyses the ionizing radiation effect from 0.09 to 1.5 Gy/s in robotic components (microcontrollers, servo motors and temperature sensors). The first experiment compares the performance of various microcontroller types and their actuators and sensors, where different mitigation strategies are applied, such as using Radiation-Hardened (Rad-Hard) microcontrollers or shielding. The second and third experiments analyze the performance of a 3-Degrees of Freedom (DoF) robotic arm, evaluating its components' responses and trajectory. This study enhances our understanding and expands our knowledge regarding radiation's impact on robotic arms and components, which is useful for defining the best strategies for extending the robots' operational lifespan, especially when performing maintenance or inspection tasks in radiation environments.

Radiation-induced late injury to normal tissue is a primary area of radiation biology research. The present study was undertaken to investigate whether the late effect of the ionizing radiation appears as an age-related oxidative status in the brain. Three groups of 4-month old C57BL/6 mice that were exposed to $^{137}Cs$ ${\gamma}-rays$ at a single dose (5 Gy) or fractionated doses ($1Gy{\times}5times$, or $0.2Gy{\times}25times$) at 2 months old were investigated for the oxidative status of their brains with both young (2-month) and old (24-month) mice. A significant (p<0.05) decrease in superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was observed in old mice brains compared with that of the young mice. malondialdehyde (MDA) content was significantly (p<0.05) increased in the old mice brain. However, any significant difference in SOD activity and MDA contents of the irradiated brain was not observed compared to age-matched control group mice. SOD activity and MDA content were observed within good parameters of brain aging and there were no late effects on the age-related oxidative level in the ${\gamma}-ray$ irradiated mice brains.

Electronic components that are used in high-level radiation environment require a semiconductor device having a radiation-hardened characteristic. In this paper, we proposed a radiation-hardened I-gate n-MOSFET (n-type Metal Oxide Semiconductors Field Effect Transistors) using a layout modification technique only. The proposed I-gate n-MOSFET structure is modified as an I-shaped gate poly in order to mitigate a radiation-induced leakage current in the standard n-MOSFET structure. For verification of its radiation-hardened characteristic, the M&S (Modeling and Simulation) of the 3D (3-Dimension) structure is performed by TCAD (Technology Computer Aided Design) tool. In addition, we carried out an evaluation test using a $Co^{60}$ gamma-ray source of 10kGy(Si)/h. As a result, we have confirmed the radiation-hardened level up to a total ionizing dose of 20kGy(Si).

무균(無菌) 상태하에서 습윤한 여지위에 숙성(熟成)시킨 감자 괴경 박편(塊莖 薄片) $(1mm{\times}1.5cm)$을 재료로 방사선(放射線)의 작용기작(作用幾作)연구를 행하였다. Invertase, 핵산 및 호흡작용의 time courses를 결정하고 이들 세작용의 방사선(放射線)에 대한 민감도를 측정하였다. 세 작용 중 어느 것도 세포분열을 억제하는 선량에서 심하게 억제되지 않았다. $^3H-thymidine$의 incorporation 결과는 방사선(放射線)의 작용부위가 mitosis나 $G_2$ period에 존재할지도 모른다는 것을 암시한다.

The dependence of cell survival on exposure dose and the duration of the liquid-holding recovery (LHR) was obtained for diploid yeast cells irradiated with ionizing radiation of different linear energy transfer (LET) and recovering from radiation damage without and with various concentrations of cisplatin - the most widely used anticancer drug. The ability of yeast cells to recover from radiation damage was less effective after cell exposure to high-LET radiation, when cells were irradiated without drug. The increase in cisplatin concentration resulted in the disappearance of this difference whereas the fraction of irreversible damage was permanently enlarged independently of radiation quality. The probability of cell recovery was shown to be constant for various conditions of irradiation and recovery. A new mechanism of cisplatin action was suggested according with which the inhibition of cell recovery after exposure to ionizing radiations was completely explained by the production of irreversible damage.

Ionizing radiation causes many alterations in photosynthetic machineries. However, there is no information about effects of ionizing radiation on the development of photosynthetic machineries in plants. We investigated the greening of etiolated mung bean seedlings after gamma-irradiation of 50 to 300 Gy. The irradiation inhibited seedling growth with great dependence on the radiation dose. In particular, growth of stems was more affected than that of hypocotyls. Irradiated leaves showed inhibition in growth, aberration in morphology, and yellowing in color depending on the radiation dose. Contents of photosynthetic pigments such as chlorophylls and carotenoids were significantly decreased in the irradiated leaves. The apparent electron transport rate for photosynthesis, ETR, was similarly changed depending on the radiation dose. However, the maximal photochemical efficiency of Photosystem II (PSII), Fv/Fm, was little affected by the irradiation. Moreover, the 50-Gy seedlings maintained the control level of light saturating for photosynthesis and showed slightly higher Fv/Fm values in spite of significant decreases in the photosynthetic pigment content and ETR. These results suggest that the inhibition of the overall photosynthetic capacity couldn’t be causally relatqaed with the repression in the initial development of irradiated seedlings and that the overall photosynthetic machineries can develop and work to some extent as a concerted system for photosynthesis even after exposure to acute doses of ionizing radiation.

밤을 $0.15{\sim}0.45\;kGy$ 범위의 감마선으로 처리하고 이로부터 분리한 전분의 성질을 조사하였다. 감마선 처리에 따라 전분의 물결합 능력은 다소 증가되었고, 고유점도와 아밀로그래프 점도는 일정하게 감소되었다(r=-0.950). 그러나 전분의 팽윤력, blue value 및 광투과도는 발아억제 선량범위에서 변화되지 않았다.
