Based on optical galaxy data, we executed a systematic search for galaxy clusters around the 15 steady unidentified EGRET GeV gamma-ray sources in high Galactic-latitude sky ([b] > $30^{\circ}$). We found a strong correlation with 3.7$\sigma$ level between close cluster pairs (merging cluster candidates) and the unidentified EGRET sources, though, in contrast, no correlation with single clusters. This result implies that merging clusters of galaxies are a possible candidate for the origin of high galactic-latitude, steady unidentified EGRET gamma-ray sources.

The value of charge current, discharge current, $\varepsilon_r$' $\varepsilon_r"$, residual voltage was measured inorder to investigate electric properties in Ethylene Prophylene Rubber for is irradiated $CO^{60}\gamma$ ray 0-38.1 Mrad. The value of charge current and the discharging current of the EPR is influenced by $CO^{60}-{\gamma}$-irradiation dose The charging current and the discharging current of EPR increase, depending on the ratio of degradation. As the irradiation dose is increased, the peak of residual voltage moves to the slorter time. The properties specific electric constant due to time variation was appeared dispersion by plentiful $CO^{60}-{\gamma}$-irradiation dose. The increase of peak in $\varepsilon_r"$ is attrib uted to the irratiation dose almost proportionally.

The value of charge currnet, discharge current, ${\varepsilon}r^'$,${\varepsilon}r^{'}$ residual voltage was measured inorder to investigate electric properties in Ethylene Prophylene Rubber for is irradiated C0$^{60}$$\gamma$ ray 0~38.1 Mrad. The value of charge current and the discharging current of the EPR is influenced by C0$^{60}$-$\gamma$- irradiation dose. The charging current and the discharging current of EPR increas, depending on the ratio of degradation. As the irradiatin dose is increased, the peak of residual voltage moves to the slorter time. The properties specific electric constant due to time variation was appeared dispersion by plentiful C0$^{60}$$\gamma$- irradiation dose. The increase of peak in ${\varepsilon}r^{'}$ is attrib uted to the irratiation dose almost proportionally.

In this study, to determine the most effective alloy for shielding against gamma-rays, the gamma-ray shielding parameters of six types of cerrobend alloys have been investigated. Gamma-ray interaction with the cerrobend alloys has been discussed mainly in terms of total mass attenuation coefficient (${\mu}_t$), half value layer (HVL), tenth value layer (TVL), effective atomic number ($Z_{eff}$), and effective electron density ($N_{eff}$). These parameters have been calculated by theoretical approach using the ParShield program in a photon energy range between 0.1 MeV and 100 GeV. The dependence of these parameters on the incident photon energy and chemical composition of the cerrobend alloys has been studied.

In this study, there has been investigated the simulation of irradiation dose using Monte Carlo methodology for the biological control of wooden cultural property. In the evaluation of fungal contamination on wooden cultural properties, Cladosporium tenuissimum, Aspergillus versicolor, Penicillium sp. were mainly identified from the Gimjeotgae. But these microorganisms were completely inactivated by 20 kGy gamma-rays. For dosimetry simulation of wooden cultural properties, Monte Carlo methodology with MCNP was used. The radiation absorbed dose distribution was predicted at 8.2~18.9 kGy. These results show that irradiation is effective for biologic control of wooden cultural properties and Monte Carlo methodology is useful for non-destructive conservation and preservation of wooden cultural properties.

PVA nanofibers containing silver nanoparticles were prepared by two methods. The first method was electrospinning of irradiated solution. The prepared $PVA/AgNO_3$ solution was irradiated by gamma-rays. And then the irradiated solution was electrospun. The second method was irradiation of electrospun nanofibers. Nanofibers prepared by electrospinning of unirradiated $PVA/AgNO_3$ solution. The morphology of the nanofibers was observed with a SEM, TEM. When the irradiated $PVA/AgNO_3$ solution were electrospun, the average size of the Ag nanoparticles was increased, but their number was decreased.

The angular correlation effect was investigated for Co-60 ${\gamma}$-ray spectroscopy by using HPGe detector and the effective angular correlation was theoretically calculated by considering the finite detector solid angle. For the calculation of effective angular correlation, the detection efficiency as a function of ${\gamma}$-ray incident direction was obtained by using Monte Carlo method and the first interaction model. The results and the methods used in the calculation are discussed.

The aim of this study was to investigate the biological effects of blood and testis by neutron or gamma-ray irradiation in black mouse. Six-week-old C57BL male mice were irradiated with neutron (flux: 1.036739E+09) or Co60 gamma rays(dose rate: lGy/min.) The irradiation method of animal was abdominal irradiation and dose of irradiation was 10 and 20 Gy added with 5 and 15Gy in neutron irradiation.. After that, the mice were sacrificed 3 days later. Blood and testis were taken and then composition of blood in blood cell were investigated. (omitted)

For the design and set-up of neutron induced prompt ${\gamma}$-ray spectroscopy system using $^{252}Cf$ neutron source, the effects of shielding and moderator materials have been examined. The $^{252}Cf$ source being used for TLD badge calibration in Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute was utilized for this preliminary experiment. The ${\gamma}$-ray background and prompt ${\gamma}$-ray spectrum of the sample containing Cl were measured using HPGe (GMX 60% relative efficiency) located at the inside of the system connected to notebook PC at the outside of the system (about 20 meter distance). The background activities of neutron and ${\gamma}$-rays were measured with neutron survey meter as well as ${\gamma}$-ray survey meters, respectively and the system was designed to minimize the activities. Prompt ${\gamma}$-ray spectrum was measured using ${\gamma}$-${\gamma}$ coincident system for reduce the background and the continuum spectrum. The optimum system was designed and set up using the experimental data obtained.

Stereo gamma ray detection system generates a two-dimensional image of the gamma ray by using the position values and the gamma ray signal. And the device will overlap with the visible light image shows the actual distribution of the gamma-ray space. The gamma ray detection device is a stereo configuration to a motion controller for controlling the signal measurement unit and the position detection portion for detecting the detection portion and the gamma-ray signal comprising a gamma-ray detection sensor. In this paper, we developed a system operation management algorithm for each module individually configured efficiently. We confirmed the imaged and distribution information output for the gamma rays from gamma-ray irradiation test site by using these results.
