We designed a single polyethylene bonner sphere with several thermo-luminescence dosimeters (TLD), for measurement of neutron energy spectrum. For the separation of the neutron dosage in the neutron-gamma mixed field, we used 21 ea TLD-600s and TLD-700s, respectively. Because, TLD-600 is sensitive to neutron and gamma rays, and, TLD-700 is sensitive only to gamma-rays, we could determine the each dose by neutron and gamma rays. The neutron response function of the bonner sphere with TLDs was calculated by MCNPX (ver. 2.5.0) Monte Carlo simulation in the energy range from $10^{-1}$ to 20 MeV. For the Cf-252 standard neutron source in KRISS, we could estimate the neutron energy spectrum by unfolding method using the response function.

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A function $f:V{\rightarrow}\{-1,+1\}$ defined on the vertices of G is a signed total dominating function if the sum of its function values over any open neighborhood is at least one. The signed total domination number of G, ${\gamma}^s_t(G)$, is the minimum weight of a signed total dominating function of G. In this paper, we study the signed total domination number of generalized Petersen graphs P(n, 2) and prove that for any integer $n{\geq}6$, ${\gamma}^s_t(P(n,2))=2[\frac{n}{3}]+2t$, where $t{\equiv}n(mod\;3)$ and $0 {\leq}t{\leq}2$.

The principal aim of the paper is to investigate new integral expression $${\int}_0^{\infty}x^{s+1}e^{-{\sigma}x^2}L_m^{(\gamma,\delta)}\;({\zeta};{\sigma}x^2)\;L_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}\;({\xi};{\sigma}x^2)\;J_s\;(xy)\;dx$$, where $y$ is a positive real number; $\sigma$, $\zeta$ and $\xi$ are complex numbers with positive real parts; $s$, $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ and $\delta$ are complex numbers whose real parts are greater than -1; $J_n(x)$ is Bessel function and $L_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}$ (${\gamma};x$) is generalized Laguerre polynomials. Some integral formulas have been obtained. The Maple implementation has also been examined.

A new class of bivariate distributions is derived by specifying its conditionals as the exponential and gamma distributions. Some properties and relations with other distributions of the new class are studied. In particular, the estimation of parameters is considered by the methods of maximum likelihood and pseudolikelihood of a special case of the new class. An application using a real bivariate data is given for illustrating the flexibility of the new class in this context, and, also, for comparing the estimation results obtained by the maximum likelihood and pseudolikelihood methods.

Fox [2] presented an interesting identity for $_pF_q$ which is expressed in terms of a finite summation of $_pF_q$'s whose involved numerator and denominator parameters are different from those in the starting one. Moreover Fox [2] found a very interesting and general summation formula for $_3F_2(1/2)$ as a special case of his above-mentioned general identity with the help of Kummer's second summation theorem for $_2F_1(1/2)$. Here, in this paper, we show how two general summation formulas for $$_3F_2\[\array{\hspace{110}{\alpha},{\beta},{\gamma};\\{\alpha}-m,\;\frac{1}{2}({\beta}+{\gamma}+i+1);}\;{\frac{1}{2}}\]$$, m being a nonnegative integer and i any integer, can be easily established by suitably specializing the above-mentioned Fox's general identity with, here, the aid of generalizations of Kummer's second summation theorem for $_2F_1(1/2)$ obtained recently by Rakha and Rathie [7]. Several known results are also seen to be certain special cases of our main identities.

Ever since the time of Euler, the so-called Euler sums have been evaluated in many different ways. We give here a proof of the classical Euler sum by following Lewin's method. We also consider some related formulas involving Euler sums, which are evaluatable from some known definite integrals.

We prove that a regular ordered semigroup S is left simple if and only if every intuitionistic fuzzy left ideal of S is a constant function. We also show that an ordered semigroup S is left (resp. right) regular if and only if for every intuitionistic fuzzy left(resp. right) ideal A = <$\mu_A$, $\gamma_A$> of S we have $\mu_A(a)\;=\;\mu_A(a^2)$, $\gamma_A(a)\;=\;\gamma_A(a^2)$ for every $a\;{\in}\;S$. Further, we characterize some semilattices of ordered semigroups in terms of intuitionistic fuzzy left(resp. right) ideals. In this respect, we prove that an ordered semigroup S is a semilattice of left (resp. right) simple semigroups if and only if for every intuitionistic fuzzy left (resp. right) ideal A = <$\mu_A$, $\gamma_A$> of S we have $\mu_A(a)\;=\;\mu_A(a^2)$, $\gamma_A(a)\;=\;\gamma_A(a^2)$ and $\mu_A(ab)\;=\;\mu_A(ba)$, $\gamma_A(ab)\;=\;\gamma_A(ba)$ for all a, $b\;{\in}\;S$.

In this manuscript, we present a method for the direct calculation of an ambient dose equivalent (H^* (10)) for the external gamma-ray exposure with an energy range of 40 keV to 2 MeV in an electronic personal dosimeter (EPD). The designed EPD consists of a 3 × 3 ㎟ PIN diode coupled to a 3 × 3 × 3 ㎣ CsI (Tl) scintillator block. The spectrum-to-dose conversion function (G(E)) for estimating H^* (10) was calculated by applying the gradient-descent method based on the Monte-Carlo simulation. The optimal parameters for the G(E) were found and this conversion of the H^* (10) from the gamma spectra was verified by using ²⁴¹Am, ¹³⁷Cs, ²²Na, ⁵⁴Mn, and ⁶⁰Co radioisotopes. Furthermore, gamma spectra and H^* (10) were obtained for an arbitrarily mixed multiple isotope case through Monte-Carlo simulation in order to expand the verification to more general cases. The H^* (10) based on the G(E) function for the gamma spectra was then compared with H^* (10) calculated by simulation. The relative difference of H^* (10) from various single-source spectra was in the range of ±2.89%, and the relative difference of H^* (10) for a multiple isotope case was in the range of ±5.56%.

Background: Identification of antigen-specific T cells has yielded valuable information on pathologic process and the disease state. Assays for quantification of inflammatory cytokines or lytic-granule molecules have been generally used to evaluate antigen specific T cell response, however their applicability have been hampered due to the limited source of autologous antigen-presenting target cells (APC). Methods: K562, a leukemic cell line deficient of human leukocyte antigen (HLA), was transfected with a gene encoding HLA-A*02 (K562/ A*02) and its function as stimulator cells in inducing activation of HLA-matched T cells was evaluated by IFN-${\gamma}$ enzyme linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assay. Results: The stable transfectant K562/ A*02 pulsed with HLA- A*02 restricted peptide could specifically induce IFN-${\gamma}$ secretion by CD8+ T cells compared to no detectable secretion by CD4+ T cells. However, CD56+ NK cells secreted IFN-${\gamma}$ in both K562/ A*02 with peptide and without peptide. The number of IFN-${\gamma}$ secreted CD8+ T cells was increased according to the ratio of T cells to K562 and peptide concentration. Formalin-fixed K562/ A*02 showed similar antigen presenting function to live K562/ A*02. Moreover, K562/ A*02 could present antigenicpeptide to not only A*0201 restricted CD8+ T cells but also CD8+ T cells from A*0206 donor. Conclusion: These results suggest that K562/ A*02 could be generally used as target having specificity and negligible background for measuring CD8+ T cell responses and selective use of K562 with responsder matched HLA molecules on its surface as APC may circumvent the limitation of providing HLA-matched autologous target cells.
