환경시료 및 Swipe시료에서 방출되는 감마선을 측정 분석하기 위하여 극저준위 백그라운드 감마선 측정시스템을 설치하였다. 본 측정시스템은 백그라운드를 저감하기 위해 극저방사능 물질로 구성된 수동적 차폐방법, 우주선 영향을 차단하기 위한 역동시 측정법, 그리고 공기중 방사성 핵종인 라돈가스를 시스템 내부에서 제거하는 방법 등을 적용하고 있다. 적용된 백그라운드 저감법에 대한 성능시험 결과, 실험실 조건의 백그라운드 준위가 관심 대상 에너지 영역($50\;keV{\sim}2\;MeV$)에서 $10^{-2}$ order 정도로 저감되었다. 그리고 미신고 핵활동을 탐지하기 위한 관심 대상 핵종의 감마선 에너지 영역에서 평가된 시스템의 최소검출하한(MDA)값은 환경시료 분석에 적합한 것으로 평가되었다. 그러나 저에너지 영역에서는 여전히 우주선에 의한 중성자 영향이 백그라운드 요인으로 작용하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

이수가압식 쉴드공법은 이수압을 적정 수준으로 관리하면 특히 사질토에서 적용성이 우수하지만, 이수압이 낮으면 이수 유출 및 지반변형이 발생하기도 한다. 따라서 이수가압식 쉴드공법에서는 초기 막장압보다 큰 초과 이수압을 가하여 막장의 안정을 유지한다. 그러나 이수압이 너무 높으면 전방 지반의 수동 파괴를 유발하므로 전방 지반의 수동 파괴 위험성을 배제하고 이수압을 증가시키는 방법으로 막장 전방에 수평 차수층을 설치하는 방안이 있으나 그 위치와 규모 및 효과가 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 포화된 사질토에서 막장 전방에 차수 그라우팅을 적용할 경우에 발생하는 효과를 규명하기 위하여 모형실험을 수행하였다. 실험에서는 차수층의 위치와 길이를 변화시거면서 이수의 유출이나 지반 파괴 이전까지 이수압을 가하여 최대 이수압과 지반 변위 및 이수의 유출로 인한 파괴 형상을 측정하여 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 전방 차수층이 없는 경우에 최대 이수압과 초과 이수압은 토피고에 선형비례 하였으며, 차수층이 존재하는 경우에는 차수층이 없는 경우보다 이수압을 크게 가할 수 있어서 전방 차수층이 막장 안정성을 증대시킬 수 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 막장 안정성 증대에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 적정 차수층의 규격은 길이 1.0 ~ 1.5D, 설치높이 1.0D로 나타났다. 초기 막장압 대비 최대 이수압의 비로 막장의 자립 안전율(F)을 제안할 수 있으며, 전방 차수층을 적정 위치에 설치할 경우 초기 막장압보다 3.5~4.0배 크게 이수압을 가할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper presents the operation principle and design rule of the Rogowski coil which can measure the transient current and describes the calibration and application experimental results for performance evaluation. It is obtained that the response curves of the Robowski coil with the turns of 300 and the passive integrator to sinusoidal input give a good linearity up to the frequency of 500 [kHz] and the current measurement system gaving the Rogowski coil is the frequency bandwidth of 40 [Hz]~700 [kHz]. As an application experiment for the fabricated modeling power transmission line, the impulse current, which limitates the direct lightning return stroke to overhead ground wire, is measured by the Rogowski coil and its fast Fourier transformation is carried out. The equivalent circuit of the Rogowski coil considering the stray capacitances is proposed, and the theoretical analysis is in good agreement with the measurement results. Also, it is found that for high frequency domain the stray capacitance such as a distributed capacitance to the shield and the capacitance between windings of coil should be considered in designing the Rogowski coils since the resonance originates from the stray capacitance and the self-inductance of the Rogowski coil.

The Korea Plateau is a continental fragment rifted and partially segmented from the Korean Peninsulaat the initial stage of the opening of the East Sea (Japan Sea). We interpreted marine seismic profiles from the South Korea Plateau in conjunction with swath bathymetric to investigate processes of con-tjnental rifting and separation of the southwestern Japan Arc. The SouU-i Korea Plateau preserves funda-mental elements of rift architecture comprising a seaward succession of a rift basin and an uplifted rift flank passing into the slope, typical of a passive continental margin. Two distinguished rift basins (Onnuri and Bandal Basins) in the South Korea Plateau are bounded by major synthetic and smaller antithetic faults, creating wide and symmetric profiles. The large-offset border fault zones of these basins have convex dip slopes and demonstrate a zig-zag arrangement along strike. Rifting was primarily controlled by normal faulting resulting from extension orthogonal to the inferred line of breakup along the base ofthe slope rather U-ian strike-slip deformation. Two extension direcdons for rifdng are recog-nized; U-ie Onnuri Basin was rifted in U-ie EW direction; U-ie Bandal Basin in U-ie EW and NW-SE directions, suggesting two rift stages. We interpret that the E-W direction represents initial rifting at the inner margin; while the Japan Basin widened, rifting propagated repeatedly from the Japan Basin to the southeast toward the Korean margin but could not penetrate the strong continental lithosphere of the Korean Shield and changed direction to the south, resulting in E-W extension to create the rift basins at the Korean margin. The Hupo Basin to the south of the Korea Plateau is estimated to have formed in this process. The NW-SE direction probably represents the direction of rifting orthogonal to the inferred line of breakup along the base of the slope of the South Korea Plateau; after breakup the southwestern Japan Arc separated in the SE direction, indicating a response to tensional tectonics associated with the subduction of the Pacific Plate in the NE direction. We suggest that structural evolution of the eastern Korean margin can be explained by the processes occurring at the passive continental margin.

In this paper, I present the domestic development of near infrared camera systems for the ground telescope and the space satellite. These systems are the first infrared instruments made for astronomical observation in Korea. KASINICS (KASI Near Infrared Camera System) was developed to be installed on the 1.8m telescope of the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO) in Korea. KASINICS is equipped with a $512{\times}512$ InSb array enable L band observations as well as J, H, and Ks bands. The field-of-view of the array is $3.3'{\times}3.3'$ with a resolution of 0.39"/pixel. It employs an Offner relay optical system providing a cold stop to eliminate thermal background emission from the telescope structures. From the test observation, limiting magnitudes are J=17.6, H=17.5, Ks=16.1 and L(narrow)=10.0 mag at a signal-to-noise ratio of 10 in an integration time of 100 s. MIRIS (Multi-purpose InfraRed Imaging System) is the main payload of the STSAT-3 in Korea. MIRIS Space Observation Camera (SOC) covers the observation wavelength from $0.9{\mu}m$ to $2.0{\mu}m$ with a wide field of view $3.67^{\circ}{\times}3.67^{\circ}$. The PICNIC HgCdTe detector in a cold box is cooled down below 100K by a micro Stirling cooler of which cooling capacity is 220mW at 77K. MIRIS SOC adopts passive cooling technique to chill the telescope below 200K by pointing to the deep space (3K). The cooling mechanism employs a radiator, a Winston cone baffle, a thermal shield, MLI of 30 layers, and GFRP pipe support in the system. Opto-mechanical analysis was made in order to estimate and compensate possible stresses from the thermal contraction of mounting parts at cryogenic temperatures. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of mechanical structure was also conducted to ensure safety and stability in launching environments and in orbit. MIRIS SOC will mainly perform the Galactic plane survey with narrow band filters (Pa $\alpha$ and Pa $\alpha$ continuum) and CIB (Cosmic Infrared Background) observation with wide band filters (I and H) driven by a cryogenic stepping motor.

본 논문에서는 5Gb/s의 직렬 링크 인터페이스에 적용 가능한 적응형 수신기를 제안한다. 효율적인 이득 제어를 위해 등화필터의 출력단 대신 슬라이서의 내부 신호를 적용한 LMS(Least Mean Square) 알고리즘을 구현하였다. 제안된 방식은 등화기의 대역폭에 영향을 미치지 않는다. 또한 비슷한 DC 크기의 신호를 가지는 슬라이서(slicer)의 내부 신호를 이용하였기 때문에 수동소자를 이용한 필터를 제거함으로써 칩 면적 및 전력소모를 줄일 수 있다. 제안된 적응형 등화기는 25dB까지 보상이 가능하며 디스플레이포트를 위한 15-m STP 케이블과 FR-4 전송선로에 적용 가능하다. 제안된 회로는 $0.18{\mu}m$ 1-폴리 4-메탈 CMOS 공정 기술이 적용하여 구현하였으며 $200{\times}300{\mu}m^2$의 칩 면적을 차지한다. 제작된 칩의 측정 결과 1.8V 공급전원에서 6mW의 매우 적은 전력소모를 나타내고 2Gbps 동작을 확인하였다. 안정된 RF용 버랙터(Varactor)를 사용하는 공정을 적용할 경우 5Gbps 동작범위를 만족할 것으로 예상된다.

We developed an ultra low background gamma ray spectrometer particularly suitable for experiment which require lower detection limit. The background of a germanium spectrometer is suppressed by applying active and passive shielding technique at the same time. The active shielding devices consist of plastic scintillating plates of 50 mm thick and anti-coincidence electronic system. The shielding is made of 150 mm thick walls of very low activity lead,20 mm with activity of <10 Bq/kg and 130 mm with activity of <50 Bq/kg. The observed background count rates are 1.2 $s^{-1}$ and 0.36 $s^{-1}$ without and with the active shielding, respectively, overall the energy regions from 30 keV to 3 MeV The cosmic ray induced background is suppressed by a rate of 0.8 $s^{-1}$ at the present work. The detection efficiency curve necessary to obtain the radioactivity of environmental samples has been precisely determined on the energy regions from 80 to 2000 keV with a 10$^3$ ml marinelli beaker sample, consisting of the calibrated radionuclides $^{109}$ Cd, $^{57}$ CO, $^{139}$ Ce, $^{203}$ Hg, $^{113}$ Sn, $^{85}$Sr, $^{137}$ Cs, $^{60}$ Co and $^{88}$ Y. Virtues Of the method are demonstrated by measuring the activity of $^{137}$ Cs contained in the powdered milk.
