Massive stars play a major role in the interstellar energy budget and the shaping of the galactic environment. The water molecule is thought to be a sensitive tracer of physical conditions and dynamics in star-forming regions because of its large abundance variations between hot and cold regions. Herschel/HIFI allows us to observe the multiple rotational transitions of H2O including the ground-state levels, and its isotopologues toward high-mass star-forming regions in different evolutionary stages. Photodissociation regions (PDRs) are also targeted to investigate the distribution of water and its chemistry. We present line profiles and maps of H2O using data from two guaranteed-time key programs "Water In Star-forming regions with Herschel" and "Herschel observations of EXtra-Ordinary Sources". We analyze the temperature and density structures using LTE and non-LTE methods. We also estimate turbulent and expansion velocities, and abundance of water in the inner and outer envelopes using the 1D radiative transfer code. Around high-mass protostars we find H2O abundances of ~10-8-10-9 for the outer envelope and ~10-4-10-5 for the inner envelope, and expansion and turbulent velocities range from 1.0 km s-1 to 2.0 km s-1. The abundances and kinematic parameters of the sources do not show clear trends with evolutionary indicators. The Herschel/HIFI mapping observations of H2O toward the Orion Bar PDR show that H2O emission peaks between the shielded dense gas and the radicals position, in agreement with the theoretical and the observational PDR structure. The derived H2O abundance is ~10-7 and peaks at the depth of AV ~8 mag from the ionization front. Together with the low ortho-to-para ratio of H2O (~1) presented by Choi et al. (2014), our results show that the chemistry of water in the Orion Bar is dominated by photodesorption and photodissociation.

본 연구의 목적은 칼슘 함량이 낮은 플라이 애쉬를 이용하여 포틀랜트시멘트를 대신할 수 있는 알칼리활성 플라이 애쉬-시멘트를 제조하는데 있다. 플라이 애쉬의 활성화는 다양한 수산화나트륨 농도와 온도 그리고 liquid/fly ash 혼합비율에서 수행하였다. 좀 더 높은 압축강도를 가진 경화체를 얻기 위하여 규산나트륨을 알칼리 용액에 첨가하였다. 강도발현의 관점에서 볼 때, liquid/fly ash의 혼합비율과 활성화제 농도 그리고 온도는 항상 중요한 인자로 작용하였다. $NaOH(210g)+Na_2SiO_3{\cdot}9H_2O(30g)+H_2O=1L$로 구성된 알칼리 활성용액은 $50^{\circ}C$에서 칼슘 함량이 낮은 플라이 애쉬의 알칼리활성 효과를 가장 높게 나타냈다. 알칼리활성화된 플라이 애쉬는 주로 quartz와 mullite 그리고 무정형의 aluminosilicate로 구성되었음을 SEM과 XRD 분석결과에서 보여주었다.

By introducing spin-coating method to the evaporation induced self-assembly (EISA) process, a simple and reproducible route in controlling the mesophase of silica thin films has been developed for the first time in this work. When a comparatively solvent-rich Si-sol (The atomic ratio of TEOS : F127 : HCl : $H_2O$ : EtOH = 1 : 0.006 : 0.2 : 9.2 : 30) was used as coating solution, the mesophase of resultant silica films was selectively controlled by adjusting the spin-on speed. The cubic mesophase has been obtained from the coating at a low rpm, such as 600 rpm, while the 2-D hexagonal mesophase is formed at a high rpm, such as 2,500 rpm. At a medium coating speed, a mixture of cubic and hexagonal mesophase has been found in the fabricated films. The present results confirm that the evaporation rate of volatile components at initial step is critical for the determination of mesopore structures during the EISA process.

A throttleable rocket engine enables operational possibilities such as the docking of spacecraft, maneuvering in a certain orbit and landing on a planet's surface, altitude control, and entrance to atmosphere-less planets. Thus, throttling methods have long been researched. However, dual-manifold injectors, which represent one throttling method, have been investigated less than others. In this study, dual-manifold and single-manifold injectors were compared to determine the characteristics of dual-manifold injectors. Also, the effects of gas injection were investigated with various F/O ratios. To investigate the characteristics, mass flow rate, spray pattern, spray angle, and droplet size were measured. The spray angle and droplet size were captured by indirect photography. About 30 images were taken to assess the spray patterns and spray angle. Also, 700 images were analyzed to understand the droplet distribution and targeting area, moving to the right from the centerline with 1.11-cm intervals. The droplet size was obtained from an image processing procedure. From the results, the spray angle showed two transition regions, due to swirl momentum in the swirl chamber regardless of the F/O ratio. The droplet size showed similar trends in both dual-manifold and single-manifold injectors except in the low mass flow rate region. In the case of the dual- manifold injector, the spray cone was not fully developed in the low mass flow rate region due to low angular momentum in the swirl chamber.

The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has designed a Hybrid-Low Power Research Reactor (H-LPRR) which can be used for critical assembly and conventional research reactor as well. It is an open tank-in-pool type research reactor (Thermal Power: 50 kW_th) of which the most important applications are Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA), Radioisotope (RI) production, education and training. There are eight irradiation holes on the edge of the reactor core: IR (6 holes for RI production) and NA (2 holes for NAA) holes. In order to quantify the elemental concentration in target samples through the Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA), it is necessary to measure neutron spectrum parameters such as thermal neutron flux, the deviation from the ideal 1/E epithermal neutron flux distribution (α), and the thermal-to-epithermal neutron flux ratio (f) for the irradiation holes. In this study, the MCNP6.1 code and FORTRAN 90 language are applied to determine the parameters for the two irradiation holes (NA-SW and NA-NW) in H-LPRR, and in particular its α and f parameters are compared to values of other research reactors. The results confirmed that the neutron irradiation holes in H-LPRR are designed to be sufficiently applied to neutron activation analysis, and its performance is comparable to that of foreign research reactors including the TRIGA MARK II.

The Carbon/Carbon composite was prepared from 3D carbon fiber preform and coal tar pitch as matrix precursor. In order to evaluate of ablative characteristics of the composite, liquid rocket system was employed Kerosene and liquid oxygen was used as propellants, operating at a nominal chamber pressure of 330 psi and a nominal mixture ratio (O/F) of 2.0. The results of an experimental evaluation were that high density composite exhibited high, while low density composites showed low erosion resistance. The erosion rate against heat flux was highly depended on the density of the materials. The morphology of eroded fiber showed differently according to collision angle with heat flux on the composite. The granular matrix which derived from carbonization pressure of 900 bar was more resistance to heat flux than well-developed flow type matrix.

We examined acidity state of inorganic aerosol and oxidation state of organic aerosol by High Resolution Time of Flight Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS) at Baengnyeong Super site from Jan 2012 to Dec 2013. Additionally, we carried out the analysis for the aerosol component group of organic matter ($C_xH_y$, $C_xH_yO_1$, $C_xH_yO_z$, $C_xH_yO_zN_p$) and elemental composition to calculate H/C, O/C, N/C, OM/OC and identify the oxidation state. The aerosol chemical composition in this study is dominated by sulfate ($SO_4{^{2-}}$), nitrate ($NO_3{^-}$) plays a smaller role in aerosol acidity. Ammonium ($NH_4{^+}$) was found in a formation of $(NH_4)_3H(SO_4)_2$. However, the binding formations of $NH_4NO_3$ and $NH_4Cl$ increase in the winter. $C_xH_yO_1$ indicating the oxidized state of $PM_{1.0}$ has the highest ratio of 41% while $C_xH_y$ indicating the non-oxidized state has a lower ratio of 36%, meaning that the oxidation level of $PM_{1.0}$ in Baengnyeong Island is high. The ratio between H/C and O/C was 1.33 and 0.78 respectively, showing the characteristic of LV-OOA (Low volatility-Oxygenated Organic Aerosol). Acidic and oxidized aerosols sampled during this field study were largely anthropogenic in origin from Chinese continent and photochemically aged.

Recently plasma etching research has been focused on the metal surfaces in the nuclear industry. In this study, surface etching reaction of metallic Co and Mo, principal contaminants in the spent nuclear components, in CF$_4$/O$_2$, gas plasma has been experimentally investigated to look into the applicability and the effectiveness of the technique for the surface decontamination. Experimental variables are $CF_4$/$O_2$ ratio and substrate temperature between 29$0^{\circ}C$ and 38$0^{\circ}C$. Experimental results Show that the optimum gas composition is 80%CF$_4$-20%$O_2$ and the metallic Co and Mo are etched out well enough in the temperatures range. Cobalt starts to be etched above $350^{\circ}C$ and the etching rate increases with increasing substrate temperature. Maximum rate achieved at 38$0^{\circ}C$ under 220 W r.f. plasma power is 0.06 $\mu\textrm{m}$/min. On the other hand, the metallic Mo is etched easily even at low temperature and the reaction rate drastically increases as the substrate temperature goes up. Highest rate obtained under the same conditions is $1.9\mu\textrm{m}$/min. OES (Optical Emission Spectroscopy) analysis reveals that the intensities of F atom and CO molecule reach maximum at the optimum gas composition, which demonstrates that the principal reaction mechanism is fluorination and/or carbonyl reaction. It is confirmed, therefore, that dry processing technique using reactive plasma is quite feasible and applicable for the decontamination of surface-contaminated parts or equipments.

배경: 중증 지역사회 획득 폐렴은 항생제의 발달과 보조요법의 발전에도 불구하고 사망률이 높은 질환으로 호흡부전으로 진행되어 기계환기가 필요한 경우 사망률은 더욱 증가하게 된다. 최근 중증 지역사회 획득 폐렴에서 저용량 하이드로코르티손 주입이 사망률을 감소시킨다고 보고되었다. 본 연구는 기계환기가 요구된 중증 지역사회 획득 폐렴 환자에서 하이드로코르티손 정주의 효과를 알아보기 위하여 시행하였다. 방법: 2005년 2월부터 7월까지 중증 지역사회 획득 폐렴으로 기계환기를 유지한 13명의 환자(남:여=10:3, 평균 연령: $68.6{\pm}14.1$)를 대상으로 하이드로코르티손을 240mg을 부하로 정주하고 시간당 10mg을 지속적으로 7일간 주입하였다. 대조군은 연구 기간 이전 중증 지역사회 획득 폐렴으로 기계환기를 유지하고 스테로이드 치료를 하지 않았던 13명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 하이드로코르티손 주입 전과 주입 8일째 두 군 간의 임상적, 생리적 지표의 차이와 최종 결과를 비교하였다. 결과: 1) 하이드로코르티손 주입 전 주입군과 대조군의 나이, 성별, 내원 당시의 SAPS II, SOFA 점수, 체온, 백혈구 수, PaO2/FiO2(P/F) 비, P/F 200이하인 환자수, 흉부방사선 사진 점수, 폐손상 점수, 카테콜라민 의존성 패혈성 쇽의 빈도 등은 유의한 차이가 없었다. 2) 하이드로코르티손 주입 8일 후 대조군에 비해 주입군이 P/F비가 100이상 호전된 환자의 비율과 흉부 방사선 점수가 호전된 환자의 비율이 유의하게 높았다(61.5% vs. 15.4% p=0.016, 76.9% vs. 23.1% p<0.05). 이외 다른 임상적 및 생리적 지표들은 주입군과 대조군 사이에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 3) 두 군 간에 기계환기 유지기간, 중환자실 재원기간, 병원내 재원기간, 재원 10일째와 30일째의 사망률은 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론: 기계환기가 요구되는 중증 지역사회 획득 폐렴에서 하이드로코르티손 정주는 산소화와 흉부 방사선 점수의 빠른 호전을 보이지만 최종 치료 성적에 대해서는 많은 환자를 대상으로 한 전향적 무작위 대조 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

로켓추진기관에 있어 과산화수소는 단일추진제와 이종추진제의 산화제로 사용되어 왔다. 과산화수소는 추력기용으로 사용된 최초의 단일추진제였으나, 후에 보다 비추력이 높고 저장성이 좋은 하이드라진으로 대체되었고, 터보펌프 구동용으로는 여전히 사용되어지고 있다. 이종추진제의 산화제로서는 1970년대까지 사용되었다. 1990년대에 들어서 저비용, 친환경적인 개발이 중요하게 대두되면서 과산화수소는 다시 개발자들의 관심의 대상이 되었다. 과산화수소의 저장성능이 과거에 비해 크게 개선되었으며, 케로신/과산화수소를 추진제 조합으로 사용하는 경우 케로신/액체산소를 사용하는 경우에 비하여 가속성능은 다소 떨어지나, 높은 추진제밀도와 O/F 비로 인하여 유사한 가속성능을 얻을 수 있으며, 연소생성물 역시 더욱 청정하였다.
