Infrared (lR) detectors are widely used for such applications as thermoelstic stress analysis, medical diagnostics and temperature measurement. Infrared detectors commonly need to be refrigerated below 80 K, and thus a cooling system should be equipped together with the detector system. The cooling load, which should be removed by the cooling system to maintain the nominal operating temperature of the detector, critically depends on the insulation efficiency of the cryochamber housing the detector. Cryochamber considers the conduction heat transfer through a cold finger, the gases conduction and radiation heat transfer. The thermal loads of an infrared detector Cryochamber with radiation shield are investigated experimentally in present study. Since the effect of radiation heat transfer on thermal loads is significant, radiation shields is installed in the cold finger part to protect heat input through radiation. It is found that the thermal load can be substantially reduced by increasing the number of radiation shield.

The high efficiency moderated-type neutron spectrometer and doseequivalent counter were developed for the measurement of low level environmental neutrons. By using these detectors, the neutron energy spectra and dose equivalent rates due to skyshine effect were measured in the environment surrounding the accelerator facilities and also the altitude variation of cosmic ray neutrons in the aircraft flying over Japan.

To predict the details of flow in industrial process unit, single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a promising technique. Recently, industrial SPECT based on medical system has developed by researchers of the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) and Hanyang University. In the present study, to confirm the effect of the number of detectors on image quality, and determine the optimal number of detectors in industrial SPECT, industrial SPECT system with various geometries were evaluated by the Monte Carlo simulation. CsI(Tl) detectors ($12mm{\times}12mm{\times}20mm$) with collimators (the geometric resolution of collimator $R_g$ was 4 cm at the center of the 30 cm diameter cylindrical vessel object) were modeled in a hexagonal array, and the point sources of $^{99m}Tc$, $^{68}Ga$, and $^{137}Cs$ were simulated at the center of the cylindrical vessel object using the MCNPX code. Then, the reconstruction images of each geometry were reconstructed using the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm. In this study, the reciprocity theorem was used to improve computation time required for system matrix of the EM algorithm. The result shows that the resolution of the reconstructed image was significantly improved by increasing the number of detectors in industrial SPECT system and more than 60 detectors will be required for the resolution of the reconstructed image.

최근 개발된 감도가 좋은 LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si TL물결을 Teflon과 혼합한 후, 않은 디스크 형태로 압축 성형한 얇은 LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si Teflon 검출기를 제작하고 베타선 검출기로서의 TL 반응특성을 연구하였다. 한국원자력연구소의 $^{147}Pm,\;^{204}Tl$ 및 $^{90}Sr/^{90}Y$ 베타선원을 이용하여 두께 $2mg/cm^2$인 Kapton 박막을 덮은 상태로 베타선을 조사하였다. 제작한 않은 LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si 검출기들의 $^{137}Cs$에 대한 batch 균질성은 4.7%, 베타선에 대한 선량의존성은 0.1 mGy에서 100 Gy까지 선형성을 나타내고, 에너지의존성은 $^{147}Pm,\;^{204}Tl$ 및 $^{90}Sr/^{90}Y$ 베타선에 대해 각각 0.46, 1.09 및 1.06 이었다. 그리고 베타선에 대한 방향의존성은 $0.93{\pm}0.03\;(^{147}Pm),\;0.94{\pm}0.04\;(^{204}Tl)$ 및 $0.92{\pm}0.05\;(^{90}Sr/^{90}Y)$으로, 이들 얇은 LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si 검출기들에 대한 TL 반응특성의 결과는 국제표준기구(ISO)의 베타선량계 기준을 잘 만족하였다.

본 연구는 두경부 방사선치료에서 산란판(beam spoiler)과 볼루스(bolus)를 사용함에 따라 깊이가 다른 원발종양과 림프절 전이성 종양의 선량 변화를 이온함과 광자극발광선량계(optically stimulated luminescence detectors. OSLDs)를 이용하여 치료계획검증 방법으로 교차 비교하였다. 치료계획검증은 치료계획시스템에서 얻은 동일 조사 조건을 검출기가 삽입 가능한 고체 팬텀에 모사하는 방법으로 산란판과 0.5, 1 cm 볼루스를 비교하였으며 두 선량계의 교차비교는 측정 오차가 ${\pm}$2% 미만일 때 신뢰성이 있다고 판단하였다. 연구 결과 0.5 cm 두께의 산란판과 피부간 거리가 10 cm 일 때 최적의 선량분포를 얻을 수 있었으며 볼루스에 비하여 피부선량이 작고 중심부 원발종양 선량의 감소가 작았다. 또한 두 선량계의 교차 비교는 ${\pm}$1% 이내로 유의한 결과를 보였다. 두경부 종양의 방사선치료시 산란판을 사용함으로써 피부 부작용을 줄이면서 종양에 최적의 선량분포를 달성할 수 있다고 판단되었으며 향후 임상에 적용하기 위한 연구가 시행되어야 할 것이다.

후쿠시마와 같은 방사선 누출 사고 시 방사선원의 위치를 찾는 일은 방사선 방호 뿐만 아니라 원전 사고의 조속하고 안전한 처리를 위해서도 중요하다. 방사선원의 3차원 위치 탐지는 기존에 방사선 탐지기의 2차원적 방사선 위치 탐지기능에 방사선원의 거리정보까지 추가 제공할 수 있어 방사선 오염원의 제거 및 제염작업에 결정적 역할을 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 반도체 센서에 기반한 듀얼(Dual) 방사선 탐지기를 이용한 방사선원 3차원 가시장치 개발 연구의 일환으로 방사선 센서부의 효율적 차폐체 구조설계에 관한 결과를 논하였다. 고하중의 텅스텐 또는 납 차폐체를 MCNP기반으로 최적구조로 설계함으로써 경량의 고효율 방사선원 위치탐지기 구현을 시도하였고, 이를 위해 차폐체의 구조와 두께, 그리고 콜리메이터에 형상의 다양한 변수모델에 대한 방사선 차폐시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 실리콘 센서기반의 소형 경량의 3차원 방사선원 탐지 및 가시화 연구에 활용될 예정이다.

In this paper, proposed NED(nuclear event detectors) for detection of a transient radiation. Nuclear event detector was blocked of power temporary for defence of critical damage at a electric device when a induced transient radiation. Conventional NED consist of BJT, resistors and capacitors. The NED supply voltage of 5V and MCM(Multi Chip Module) structures. The proposed NED were designed for low supply voltage using 0.18um CMOS process. The response time of proposed NED was 34.8ns. In addition, pulse radiation experiments using a electron beam accelerator, the output signal has occurred.

A radiotracer technique has been developed to monitor the rotational movement of two piston rings in one cylinder during engine operation. The rings were labeled with two different kinds of radioisotopes, i.e. $^{60}$ Co and $^{192}$ Ir, for identification of the top ring from the second ring. The radiotracers were implanted in a small hole bored on the inner side of each piston ring. The rings were installed in a single cylinder hydrogen engine and three Nal scintillation detectors were mounted around the engine block to measure the gamma radiation. The angle of ring-gap orientation was determined from the radiation counts measured with the three detectors during engine operation. Two windows (upper window for $^{60}$ Co and lower window for $^{192}$ Ir) were set on each ratemeter to count radiation from the two isotopes separately. Procedure to convert the radiation counts to the position of the ring gap was established. With the software programmed with MS-Visualbasic, radiation counts were compared with the reference responses that were measured at angular intervals of 10$^{\circ}$for each piston ring in advance of the experiment. The result was used for the evaluation of the relationship between the orientation of ring-gaps and oil consumption. It was found that an increase in the oil consumption rate of a specific operation condition was closely related to the relative phase angle of the two piston rings.
