Fe$_2$O$_3$ thin films were prepared on $Al_2$O$_3$ substrate by PECVD(Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) process. The phase transformation of iron oxide film was determined as the substrate temperature and reduction-oxidation process. $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ was stable in deposition temperature ranges of 80~15$0^{\circ}C$. Fe$_3$O$_4$ phase was obtained by the reduction process of $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ phase in H$_2$ ambient. Fe$_3$O$_4$ phase was transformed into a ${\gamma}$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ thin film under controlled oxidation conditions at 280~30$0^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of the study was to analyze the persistence of HCH in atmosphere, soil, sediment and water of the western and southern regions of Korea. The samples from the western region were collected from Anmyeon Island, and the samples from the southern region were collected from Kimhae and Busan. The concentration of HCH isomers in atmosphere showed the pattern of $\alpha$-HCH>$\gamma$-HCH>$\beta$-HCH. The regions with high HCH concentration in the atmosphere are the regions that have been highly exposed to HCH used in the past, and the areas that have been influenced by the long range transport. The HCH that persists in the soil, water and sediment evaporates into the atmosphere, showing the characteristics of Air-Surface exchange. When the regional concentration distributions are compared, the concentration of HCH was higher in the atmosphere of a plain and the cities near the plain, than the urban areas. In this study, the ratio of $\alpha/\beta$-HCH was used as an indicator for estimating the source of Technical HCH and Lindane. According to the result, the contribution of Lindane was high in Kimhae plain and Kimhae urban areas. However, in Busan, the contribution of Technical HCH was higher than Lindane. In case of Anmyeon Island, the western region of Korea had high contribution from Tehcnical HCH. In soil and sediment, $\beta$-HCH was dominant. In water, $\gamma$-HCH was dominant among other isomers. Such results are due to $\gamma$-HCH inLindane. Furthermore, the source of $\gamma$-HCH in urban areas is assumed to be the use of medicine, medical supplies and other living supplies. Based on the results of this study, the management of HCH, a newly list up emerging POPs, should be strengthened by further research on sources, fate, persistency, accumulation and exposures and etc. to the risk assessments.

사과의 유통에서 내 외부 품질특성 및 외부 오염원으로부터의 안전성 확보를 위한 연구의 일환으로 사과에 감마선 조사를 실시하여 각각 $4^{\circ}C$와 $25^{\circ}C$에 저장하면서 사과의 생리화학적 및 물리적 품질특성을 살펴보았다. 연구 결과 영양 성분 및 기능성 성분의 손실이나 품질저하는 보존 온도에 의하여 결정되었고 감마선 조사에 의한 영향은 거의 나타나지 않았다. 또한 중량변화와 기계적 물성 특성 또한 감마선 조사에 의하여 영향을 받지 않았다. 색도와 관능특성은 상온 보관시 감마선 조사 시험구에서 다소간의 품질 열화가 관찰되었으나 저온보존에서는 대조구와 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 따라서, 감마선 조사는 사과의 영양성분 및 기능성, 그리고 물리적 요인의 보존안정성에 영향을 주지 않으면서도 미생물학적 관점에서의 유통, 보존안정성을 확보할 수 있는 유효한 기술이 될 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.

Background: A hand-held detector for an emergency response was developed for nuclide identification and to estimate the information of the ambient dose rate in the scene of an accident as well as the radioactivity of the contaminants. Materials and Methods: To achieve this, the most suitable sensor was first selected as a cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) semiconductor and the signal processing unit from a sensor and the signal discrimination and storage unit were successfully manufactured on a printed circuit board. Results and Discussion: The performance of the developed signal processing unit was then evaluated to have an energy resolution of about 14 keV at 662 keV. The system control unit was also designed to operate the CZT detector, monitor the detector, battery, and interface status, and check and transmit the measured results of the ambient dose rate and radioactivity. In addition, a collimator, which can control the inner radius, and the airborne dust sampler, which consists of an air filter and charcoal filter, were developed and mounted to the developed CZT detector for the quick and efficient response of a nuclear accident. Conclusion: The hand-held CZT detector was developed to make the in-situ gamma-ray spectrometry and its performance was checked to have a good energy resolution. In addition, the collimator and the airborne dust sampler were developed and mounted to the developed CZT detector for a quick and efficient response to a nuclear accident.

We updated the far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectral images of the entire Vela supernova remnant (SNR) using newly processed FIMS/SPEAR data. In the present study, we compare the newly produced FUV images with the X-ray and $H{\alpha}$ images, and examine how the Vela SNR evolves and interacts with the ambient medium on a global scale. The comparison with X-ray images has revealed a FUV filamentary feature corresponding with the boundary of the northeast-southwest asymmetry of the X-ray shell. The relatively low O IV] ${\lambda}1404$ to O III] ${\lambda}{\lambda}1661$, 1666 ratio estimated on the FUV filament is compatible with the previous proposal that the observed asymmetry of the Vela SNR could be due to the ${\gamma}2$ Velorum stellar wind bubble (SWB). The southwest FUV features surrounding a faint extended X-ray region are characterized as the region where the Vela SNR is interacting slightly stronger with ambient mediums within the dim X-ray southwest section. From a comparison with the $H{\alpha}$ image, we identify a ring-like $H{\alpha}$ feature overlapped with an extended hot X-ray feature of similar size and two local peaks of C IV ${\lambda}{\lambda}1548$, 1551 emission. Their morphologies are consistent with the expected shape when the $H{\alpha}$ ring is in direct contact with the near or far side of the Vela SNR. We suggest that the B3V-type star HD 76161 found at the center of the $H{\alpha}$ ring would be the exciting source of the H II region.

Background: After the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS) accident, a model was developed to estimate the external exposure doses for residents who were expected to return to their homes after evacuation orders were lifted. However, the model's accuracy and uncertainties in parameters used to estimate external doses have not been evaluated. Materials and Methods: The model estimates effective doses based on the integrated ambient dose equivalent (H^*(10)) and life patterns, considering a dose reduction factor to estimate the indoor H^*(10) and a conversion factor from H^*(10) to the effective dose. Because personal dose equivalent (H_p(10)) has been reported to agree well with the effective dose after the FDNPS accident, this study validates the model's accuracy by comparing the estimated effective doses with H_p(10). The H_p(10) and life pattern data were collected for 36 adult participants who lived or worked near the FDNPS in 2019. Results and Discussion: The estimated effective doses correlated significantly with H_p(10); however, the estimated effective doses were lower than H_p(10) for indoor sites. A comparison with the measured indoor H^*(10) showed that the estimated indoor H^*(10) was not underestimated. However, the H_p(10) to H^*(10) ratio indoors, which corresponds to the practical conversion factor from H^*(10) to the effective dose, was significantly larger than the same ratio outdoors, meaning that the conversion factor of 0.6 is not appropriate for indoors due to the changes in irradiation geometry and gamma spectra. This could have led to a lower effective dose than H_p(10). Conclusion: The estimated effective doses correlated significantly with H_p(10), demonstrating the model's applicability for effective dose estimation. However, the lower value of the effective dose indoors could be because the conversion factor did not reflect the actual environment.

이 논문에서는 vinylidene fluoride(VDF), trifluoroethylene(TrFE), chlorotrifluoroethylene(CTFE)을 사용하여 3성분계 고분자를 합성하였으며, 저온 개시제 di-tertiary-butylperoxide(DTBP)를 사용하여 현탁중합하였다. NMR, FT-IR을 통해 3성분계 고분자 사슬의 미세구조, 사슬형태의 변화에 대해 알 수 있었다. CTFE mol%가 증가할수록 $\beta$ 상태는 점차적으로 감소하고 $\gamma$ 상태는 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. DSC 분석결과, CTFE mol%가 증가할수록 상전이 온도($T_c$)는 상온으로 낮아지며 그 곡선은 점차 작아지고 넓게 퍼지는 현상을 확인하였다. 활성화 에너지는 Freeman-Carroll법에 의해 계산되었다.

We investigate the correlation between the peak energy and the burst duration using available long GRB data with known redshift, whose circumburst medium type has been suggested via afterglow light curve modeling. We find that the peak energy and the burst duration of the observed GRBs are correlated both in the observer frame and in the GRB rest frame. For our total sample we obtain, for instance, the Spearman rank-order correlation values ${\sim}0.75\;and\;{\sim}0.65$ with the chance probabilities $P=1.0{\times}10^{-3}\;and\;P=6.0{\times}10^{-3}$ in the observer frame and in the GRB rest frame, respectively. We note that taking the effects of the expanding universe into account reduces the value a bit. We further attempt to separate our GRB sample into the 'ISM' GRBs and the 'WIND' GRBs according to environment models inferred from the afterglow light curves and apply statistical tests, as one may expect that clues on the progenitor of GRBs can be deduced directly from prompt emission properties other than from the ambient environment surrounding GRBs. We find that two subsamples of GRBs show different correlation coefficients. That is, the Spearman rank-order correlation are ${\sim}0.65\;and\;{\sim}0.57$ for the 'ISM' GRBs and 'WIND' GRBs, respectively, after taking the effects of the expanding universe into account. It is not yet, however, statistically very much significant that the GRBS in two types of circumburst media show statistically characteristic behaviors, from which one may conclude that all the long bursts are not originated from a single progenitor population. A larger size of data is required to increase the statistical significance.

독도 연안에 존재하는 배양 가능한 미생물의 다양성을 16S rRNA 분석으로 조사하였다. 동도 선착장 주변과 서도 숙소 부근을 중심으로 채취한 시료에서 163개의 해양 미생물을 분리하였다. 분리한 미생물 163종을 16S rRNA 염기서열의 분석을 이용하여 부분동정 할 수 있었다. 부분동정된 미생물은 gamma-proteobacteria(58%), alpha-proteobacteria (20%), bacteriodetes(16%) 계통이 대부분을 차지하고 있었고, 그 외에도 low G+C Gram positive bacteria와 epsilonproteobacteria가소수 동정 되었다. 염기서열이 분석된 미생물들은 이전에 보고된 미생물들의 16S rRNA 유전자와 93.3%에서 100%의 유사도를 보이며 56속 94종으로 부분 동정되었다. 163종의 부분 동정된 미생물 중 36개의 분리 미생물이 새로운 종으로 분류될 후보군으로 추정되었다. 본 연구의 결과 독도연안 바닷물에는 proteobacteria와 bacteriodetes의 비율이 높게 나타났고, 미생물 다양성을 높게 유지하고 있었다. 이 다양한 미생물로부터 다양한 유용미생물 자원을 확보할 수 있고, 새로운 종으로 분류될 후보군 들은 추후 여러 생리생화학적 실험을 수행하여 새로운 종 또는 새로운 속으로 발표할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
