Since in the KMRR the neutron spectrum is hardened in comparison with the conventional power reactors, and the absorber is in a tube-form which may contain the neutron multiplying media inside it, the reactor physics characteristics of the KMRR absorber are much different. The characteristics of the hafnium control absorber are studied under the several kinds of the environmental conditions. The environmental conditions include the inner materials inside the absorber shroud, the absorber thickness, the absorber burnout, and the fuel burnup. Investigated are nuclear characteristics such as the dependence of the spectral, regional, and isotopic contribution to the neutron absorption, and the dependence of the reactivity worth. Many important absorber characteristics are identified and presented from the analysis.

This study focused on establishing prediction models using visible-near infrared spectrum to simultaneously detect multiple components of soils and enhancing the performance quality by suitably transformed input spectra and classification of soil spectral types for prediction model input. The continuum-removed spectra showed significant result for all cases in terms of soil properties and classified or bulk predictions. The prediction model using classified soil spectra at an absorption peak area around 500nm and 950nm efficiently indicating soil color showed slightly better performance. Especially, Ca and CEC were well estimated by the classified prediction model at $R^{2}$ > 0.8. For organic carbon, both classified and bulk prediction model had a good performance with $R^{2}$ > 0.8 and RPD> 2. This prediction model may be applied in global soil mapping, soil classification, and remote sensing data analysis.

Green-emission intensity of a $Zn_{2-x}Mn_xSiO_4$ phosphor, which is a potential candidate as a green component in PDP device, significantly increases provided that the compound is additionally heat treated at 900$^{\circ}C$ after solid state reaction at 1300$^{\circ}C$. In order to verify origin of such an intensity enhancement after the additional heat treatment in association with the electronic and local structural change at around Mn ions, the Mn K-edge X-ray absorption spectra were recorded. From the analyses of the preedge peak corresponding to $1s{\rightarrow}3d$ bound state transition and XANES spectrum, it is known that most Mn ions are in +2 oxidation state and substitute Zn ion site regardless of the thermal treatment. In addition, EXAFS analyses revealed that Mn ions formed $MnO_4$ tetrahedra with the Mn-O bond length shortened by 0.01${\AA}$ and with reduced Debye-Waller factor in the thermally treated sample.

The cone beam computed tomography(CBCT) which can acquire 3-dimensions images is widely used for confirmation of patient position before radiation therapy. In this study, through the simulation using the Monte Carlo technique, we will analyze the exposure dose by cone beam computed tomography and present the standardized data. For the experiment, MCNPX(ver. 2.5.0) was used and the photon beam spectrum was analyzed after Cone beam was simulated. As a result of analyzing the photon beam spectrum, the average energy ranged from 25.7 to 37.6 keV at the tube voltage of 80 ~ 120 kVp and the characteristic X-ray energy was 9, 60, 68 and 70 keV. As a result of using the water phantom, the percentage depth dose was measured, and the maximum dose appeared on the surface and decreased with depth. The absorbed dose also decreased as the depth increased. The absorbed dose of the whole phantom was 9.7 ~ 18.7 mGy. This is a dose which accounts for 0.2% of about 10 Gy, which is generally used for radiation therapy per week, which is not expected to have a significant effect on the treatment effect. However, it should not be overlooked even if it is small compared with prescription dose.

최근 국내외 이상기후 변화로 인해 일사량 증가 및 하천, 호소의 체류시간이 늘어남에 따라 조류의 과대성장이 빈번히 발생하고 있다. 하천의 조류는 크게 녹조류, 남조류, 규조류로 분류되며, 남조류 중 일부 종은생장하는 과정에서 생성하는 냄새물질, 독성물질의 배출로 문제를 야기하고 있다. 국민의 안전을 도모하기 위해 국내에서는 조류경보제, 수질예보제를 시행하고 있으며, 이는 유해남조류세포와 Chl-a농도에 따라 발령이 된다. 이렇듯 유해남조류와 Chl-a 측정은 매우 중요하며, 현재 조류의 분석방법은 현장샘플을 하여 조류검경을 통해 산정하기 때문에 시간이 많이 소요되며, 조류발생시 즉각대응이 힘들며, 육안으로 유해남조류인지 구별하기가 어렵다. 최근 원격탐사를 통해 조류의 대체 인자인 Chl-a, Phycocyanin을 통해 조류농도를 분석하고 있으나, 광합성을하는 모든 조류에는 Chl-a가 함유되어 있어 남조류와 녹조류의 정확히 구별하는데 한계점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 조류배양액을 초분광센서를 통해 조류스펙트럼을 취득하고, 남조류와 녹조류의 최대 흡수 스펙트럼을 추출하여 스펙트럼의 순간기울기 변화를 통해 남조류와 녹조류의 종분류하였다.

The analytical conditions including surface state, moisture effect, and device condition were investigated for applying Short Wave Infrared(SWIR) spectroscopy to the field survey. Among the three surface state of samples (exposed surface, cutting face and powder), both spectra from the exposed surface and cutting face are almost identical whereas spectral variation was detected in powder sample. Over 24-hours-dryring of the wet sample at room temperature, the samples show a similar spectrum with that of dry condition. The result suggests that outcrop samples mighty be dried for 24 ~ 48 hours depending on the wetness of outcrop. The bright minerals could produce stable spectra with 10 times measurements as default value of the device under SWIR spectroscopy but the dark minerals would require about 10 seconds, which corresponds to 100 times measurements to get the reliable spectra. The position and shape 2,160 ~ 2,330 nm and/or other spectral features of hydrothermal alteration minerals by SWIR spectroscopy could be used for a classification of hydrothermal alteration zone in the field. Absorption peaks in 2,160 ~ 2180 nm are useful for identifying (advanced) argillic zone by spectral characteristics of kaoline, dickite, pyrophyllite, and alunite. Absorption peaks in 2,180 ~ 2,230 nm are able to define muscovite, sericite, and smectite, which are key alteration minerals in phyllic zone. Absorption peaks in 2,230 ~ 2,270 nm can be used to recognize prophylitic zone where chlorite and epidote occur. Absorption peaks of other principle minerals such as talc, serpentine, amphibole, and carbonate group are mainly detected within the wave length of 2,270 ~ 2,330 nm. This result indicates that the spectra of these minerals need to be carefully interpreted.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of the physical and chemical factors on the absorbance when the chemical component of food was rapidly and effectively analyzed with near infrared reflection spectrophotometer. The absorbance was measured within the wavelength range of 1100 and 2500m and at the various sample temperatures. The absorbance was greatly increased with the rising sample temperature. When the grinding time of samples prolonged, the absorbance was decreased. The absorption peaks occurring in the near infrared spectra of meat, meat protein, pork fat and water were attributed to the overtone and combination vibration of C-H, N-H, O-H or C=O bond within the macromolecules of each sample. The absorbance was lower for meat protein than other meat components. Pork fat was characterized by the ${\cdot}CH_2{\cdot}$ absorption peak at the wavelength of 1700 and 2300 nm and water by the relatively high absorption peak at the wavelength of 1450 and 1930 nm. As a result, the absorbance of near infrared reflection spectrum of meat was affected mainly by fat and water in meat.

Since the short-wave infrared spectrum has a significant range of variation depending on the production environment, countries with advanced resource exploration are collecting the spectrum and building a database. Representative organizations include the USGS and CSIRO, and they are currently carrying out a project in China that can synthesize and use a large number of existing data. The USGS library provides a total of 2,457 spectra targeting not only minerals but also various materials that respond to infrared radiation. Among these, there are 1,276 mineral spectra, which are about half of the total. The spectrum title includes information, such as analysis devices (NIC4, BECK, ASDNG, etc.), purity codes (a, b, c, d, u), and measurement methods (AREF, RREF, RTGC, TRAN). Analyzed raw data are provided in ASCII and GIF format. The CSIRO library has a total of 502 spectra, of which the majority, 493, correspond to mineral spectra. The USGS library is a free, publically available resource, while the CSIRO library is bundled with TSG8 or must be purchased separately. Among these, when comparing the eight spectra whose spectral shapes can be analyzed with the spectra of domestic illite, the positions of the absorption peaks are significantly different from those of domestic illite, except for one Japanese illite. Additional research will be needed to determine the causes of such differences, and the domestically relevant databases should be established as well.
