국내 최초로 중성자 개인선량계에 대한 상호비교측정시험이 수행되었다. 기준 방사선장으로 한국원자력연구소가 보유하고 있는 중수감속 $^{252}Cf$ 선원을 이용하였으며, 12개 판독기관의 선량계 13종이 상호비교시험에 참가하였다. 각 참가기관으로부터 컨트롤과 예비용을 포함하여 15개의 선량계를 제출받아, 이를 2개의 조사선량군으로 나누어 4개씩 총 8개의 선량계가 실제 조사되었다. 중성자, 감마 그리고 총선량의 항목으로 판독기관의 보고선량을 부여된 선량으로 나누어 선량계 판독결과를 비교한 결과, 각각에 대하여 그 비율이 $0.55{\sim}1.34$, $0.54{\sim}1.32$, $0.75{\sim}1.20$ 의 분포를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 판독기관의 자체 판독능력을 기준으로 할 때 전혀 문제가 없는 것은 아니나, 현재의 상호비교시험 결과로부터 알 수 있는 것은 향후 중성자분야에 대한 개인선량계 성능시험이 시행될 경우, 판독기관들이 모두 합격범위에 들 가능성이 높은 것으로 평가되었다.

We have performed two experiments in the fast critical assembly BFS to measure the effective delayed neutron fraction $\beta$$_{eff}$ values and compared the results to validate the $\beta$$_{eff}$ computation code, BETA-K. Measurements of $\beta$$_{eff}$ were carried out in a metallic plutonium core and a metallic uranium core with Cf$^{252}$ source pseudo-reactivity method. Fission integrals and correction factors, which were used to obtain the experimental $\beta$$_{eff}$ values, were calculated by using the LMR core design computation code system of KAERI. BETA-K has been developed consistently with the hexagonal Nodal Expansion Method (NEM) and it used delayed neutron data of ENDF/B-VI. By comparing the computed $\beta$$_{eff}$ values with the measured ones, we found that the results from BETA-K agreed with the experimental values within the experimental error bound.ror bound.

An Exponential experiment system which is composed of a neutron detector, a signal analysis system and a neutron source, Cf-252 has been installed in order to experimentally determine the neutron effective multiplication factor for a PWR spent fuel assembly. The axial background neutron flux is measured in a preliminary performance test. From the results, the spacer grid position is determined to be consistent with the design specifications within a 2.3% relative error. The induced fission neutron for four of the assemblies is also measured by scanning the neutron source, Cf-252 or the neutron detector. The exponential decay constants have been evaluated by the application of the Poisson regression to the net induced fission neutron counts. The measured keffs determined on the basis of the exponential decay constants of Cl5 appeared to be 0.541, 0.540, 0.597 and 0.556, respectively, which are comparable with 0.55195$\pm$0.00232 of the MCNP calculation.

방사성 중성자선원은 일상적 시험에 있어 표준 중성자 방사선장을 형성하는데 적합하다. 방사선 방어상의 목적으로 사용되는 중성자 측정기기의 교정을 위한 기준 방사선이 ISO TC-85에서 제의되었다. 한국표준연구소 방사선연구실에는 ISO TC-85의 추천사항에 준하여 개인용 중성자 선량계를 교정하기 위하여 $^{252}Cf$와 $^{241}Am-Be$ 선원을 이용한 표준조사시설을 설립하였다. 본 연구에서는 중성자 산란과 선원 비등방성에 연관된 교정상의 보정인자들을 실험에 의하여 결정하였다.

Introduction: In this study, TLD 600 and TLD 700 pairs were used to measure the neutron dose of Elekta Precise medical linac. To this end, the optimum moderate thickness for the conversion of fast to thermal neutrons were evaluated. Materials and methods: ²⁴¹Am-Be and ²⁵²Cf sources were simulated to calculate the optimum thicknesses of the moderator for the conversion of maximum fast neutrons (FN) into thermal neutrons (TN). Pair TLDs were used to measure F&TN doses for three different field sizes at four depths of the medical linac. Results: The maximum thickness of the moderator was optimized at 6 cm. The measurement results demonstrated that the TN dose increased with the expansion of field size and depth. The FN dose, which was converted TN, exhibits behaviors comparable to the TN due to its nature. Conclusion: This study presents the optimum thickness for the moderator to convert FN into TN and measure F&TN using TLDs.

In this study, the deformation and etch characteristics of ArF and EUV photoresists were compared in a dual frequency superimposed capacitively coupled plasma (DFS-CCP) etcher systems using $CF_{4}/O_{2}/Ar$ and $CF_{4}/CHF_{3}/O_{2}/Ar$ mixture gas chemistry which are typically used for BARC open and $Si_{3}N_{4}$ teching chemistry, respectively. Etch rate of the resists tend to increase with low-frequency source power ($P_{LF}$) and high-frequency source ($f_{HF}$). The etch rate of ArF resist was hgither than that of EUV resist.

Air pressure decay (APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those reused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF 15-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained (rom the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAK dialyzers had a larger APD($11.70{\pm}1.32$mmHg/min) compared to CF dialyzers($4.32{\pm}0.55$mmHg/min) (p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHg/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CF and 5 out 26 C DAK) were attributed to the possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD Is a more son sitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers.
