The on-orbit test simulation for predicting the instrument directional responsivity was conducted by the Monte Carlo based integrated ray tracing (IRT) computation technique and analytic flux-to-signal conversion algorithms. For the on-orbit test simulation, the Sun model consists of the Lambertian scattering sphere and emitting spheroid rays, the Amon-Ra instrument is a two-channel including a broadband scanning radiometer (energy channel) and an imager with ${\pm}2^{\circ}$ FOV (visible channel). The solar radiation produced by the Sun model is directed to the instrument viewing port and traced through the dual channel optical train. The instrument model is rotated on its rotation axis and this gives a slow scan of the Sun model over the full field of view. The direction of the incident lights are fed with scanned images obtained from the visible channel instrument. The instrument responsivity was computed by the ratio of the incident radiation input to the instrument output. In the radiometric simulation, especially, measured BRDF of the 3D CPC was used for scattering effects on radiometry. With diamond turned 3D CPC inner surface, the anisotropic surface scattering model from the measured data was applied to ray tracing computation. The technical details of the on-orbit test simulation are presented together with field-of-view calibration plan.

In this study, we measured the dose distribution of scattered ray in X-ray radiography room using an ion chamber and examined the dependency of scattered ray content on the scattered ray source and exposure condition. To study the factors of scattered ray occurrence in the acryl phantom, we measured the change in the scatted ray content according to the X-ray tube voltage (40~140 kV) and the field size ($10{\times}10\;cm^2$, $20{\times}20\;cm^2$, $35{\times}35\;cm^2$). For the $35{\times}35\;cm^2$ field size, the side-scattering rate ranged from 3.1% to 14.5%. The scattered ray contributions of the phantom, collimator, X-ray tube and wall were also measured. The scattered ray contribution of the phantom was higher than 95.4% for the entire tube voltage, and those of the collimator, X-ray tube and wall were 2.6%, 1.3% and 0.7%, respectively.

We use the non-stationary three dimensional two-layer outer gap model to explain gamma-ray emissions from a pulsar magnetosphere. We found out that for some pulsars like the Geminga pulsar, it was hard to explain emissions above a level of around 1 GeV. We then developed the model into a non-stationary model. In this model we assigned a power-law distribution to one or more of the spectral parameters proposed in the previous model and calculated the weighted phase-averaged spectrum. Though this model is suitable for some pulsars, it still cannot explain the high energy emission of the Geminga pulsar. An Inverse-Compton Scattering component between the primary particles and the radio photons in the outer magnetosphere was introduced into the model, and this component produced a sufficient number of GeV photons in the spectrum of the Geminga pulsar.

This paper presents the evaluation of an angular spectrum-based method used to calculate scattering pattern of a three-dimensional object modelled as a collection composed of vertical sectional two-dimensional images. This is done via comparing a proposed method with two existing methods, i.e., a Fresnel hologram method and a ray-tracing method, in terms of computatioal complexities and reconstructed results. Maathematical derivations for each methods are reviewed and implementing procedures are described in detail, along with the amount of computaions required from the implementation point of view, rather than from the mathematical point of view. We show simulation results in which the Fresnel holoram method dose not exhibit promising results although it requires the least computation. Moreover, it is also shown that the proposed method, even with much less computational requirement than the ray-tracing method, produces good performances asmuch as the ray-tracing method does.

Phase separation temperature of lysozyme-water mixture increased with X-ray exposure on lysozyme and decreased with impurity of saponin. The intensity of light scattering in lysozyme-water mixture with X-ray exposure on lysozyme decreased as a function as a function of temperature, and decreased with impurity of saponin.

Pressure-dependent structural and morphological changes of two amphibole minerals, tremolite and actinolite, were investigated up to 7.0 GPa using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction underthree different pressure transmission media (PTM): water (W), $CO_2$ and silicone oil (SI). The elastic response of tremolite and actinolite are found to be dependent on the PTM used. When using water (W) as PTM, tremolite and actinolite show normal volume contractions with bulk moduli of 74(1) and 78(1) GPa, respectively. When using $CO_2$ as PTM, we observe the formation of calcite from tremolite above 3.8(1) GPa, whereas actinolite did not show any carbonation reaction. Under silicone oil PTM, we observe modulated volume contraction behaviors in both samples, compared to water and $CO_2$ PTM, with bulk moduli in the order of 90(1) and 94(4) GPa for tremolite and actinolite, respectively.

The diffuse sound field plays a crucial role in the perceptual quality of the auralization of virtual scenes. Diffuse Rain is a geometrical scattering model which enables the simulation of diffuse fields that is compatible with acoustic ray tracing, but is often computationally expensive. We develop a novel method that can reduce this cost by rendering the large number of Diffuse Rain data in Ambisonics format. The proposed method is evaluated in a shoebox scene simulation run on MATLAB, in reference to a more faithful method of rendering the Diffuse Rain data ray-by-ray. The EDC and IACC of the binaural output show that the simulated diffuse field can be rendered in Ambisonics with only minimal deviations in energy decay and spatial quality, even with 1^st-order Ambisonics.

This paper predicts 6 facial regions that may have sharply different scattering properties, rendering the face more realistically based on their diffusion profiles. The scattering properties are acquired in the form of high dynamic range by photographing the pattern formed around an unit ray incident on facial skin. The acquired data are fitted to a 'linear combination of Gaussian functions', which well approximates the original diffusion profile of skin and has good characteristics as the filter. During the process, to prevent its solutions from converging into local minima, we take advantage of the genetic algorithm to set up the initial value. Each Gaussian term is applied to the irradiance map as a filter, expressing subsurface scattering effect. In this paper, to efficiently handle the maximum 12 Gaussian filterings, we make use of the parallel capacity of CUDA.

A calculation is presented of air-scattered gamma rays using the modified single-scattering approximation. The air-scattered tissue dose rates are calculated for a general purpose taking into account (a) the buildup and exponential attenuation, (b) the energy spectrum at the position of question and (c) the geometrical scattering volume in three dimensions. These calculations have been further modified to render them applicable to a typical field irradiation facility which is surrounded by a shield wall and in which the source is fitted with a beam collimating device. The results of the calculation include the energy spectra, angular distribution and tissue does rates at source-receiver separation distances of from 35m to 300m. The comparison shows that the present method developed may be generally adequate for the gamma-ray air-scattering problems in field irradiation facilities if energy and angular distribution at the shield are unimportant.

We have developed and applied a diagnostic Multi-Leaf Collimator (MLC) to optimized the X-ray field in medical imaging and the usefulness evaluated through the fusion of infrared image and X-ray image acquired by infrared camera. The hand and skull radiography with multi-leaf collimator(MLC) showed significant area dose reductions of 22.9% and 31.3% compared to ARC and leakage dose was compliant with KS A 4732. Also scattering doses of 50 cm and 100 cm showed a significant decrease to confirm the usefulness of MLC. It was confirmed that the fusion of infrared images with an adjustable degree of transparency was possible in the X-ray images. Therefore, fusion of anatomical information with physiological convergence is expected to contribute and improvement of diagnostic ability. In addition, the feasibility of convergence X-ray imaging and DITI devices and the possibility of driving MLC with infrared images were confirmed.
