전산화단층촬영장치(Computed Tomography:CT)등장은 인체의 검사 시에 비 침습적인 검사로서 환자의 병변을 발견하는데 사용된다. 전산화단층촬영장치가 주는 정보는 3차원 영상구현에 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 과학이 발전함에 따라 최근에는 전산화단층촬영장치를 사용하여 물리학적인 또한 생물학적 연구에 적용할 수 있는 장비가 필요하게 되었다. 따라서 좀 더 세밀하고 구체적인 정보를 제공해주는 마이크로 시티(Micro-CT)가 등장하였다. 마이크로 시티가 주는 영상정보는 더욱 더 세밀하고 구체적인 영상 정보이며 따라서 생명공학과 고분자 재료공학 발전에 크게 기여하고 있다. 그러나 아직까지 마이크로 시티의 사용자에 관한 피폭선량의 한도에 관한 공간선량 측정 정보가 정확하게 보고된바 없다. 또한 마이크로 시티를 사용함으로써 원치 않게 발생 할 수 있는 산란선에 관하여 공간 피폭 선량이 보고되지 않았다. 마이크로 시티는 장비의 외관은 피폭 산란선 제거용 납으로 구성되어 있다. 따라서 산란선에 의한 피폭을 충분히 예방할 수 있지만 시간이 흐르고 장비가 노후되어짐에 따라 꾸준한 장비의 관리가 필요 할 것이다. 우리는 우연치 않게 발생 될 수 있는 마이크로 시티를 직접적으로 사용하고 있는 운영자의 산란선 피폭에 관해 공간선량을 측정하였다. 결론적으로 마이크로 시티의 사용자로 하여금 원치 않게 발생되는 산란선에 관하여 피폭 관리가 필요하다고 알리고 싶다.

We present proton-induced single event effects (SEEs) and γ-ray-induced total ionizing dose (TID) data for 1 Gbit lowpower double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (LPDDR SDRAM) fabricated on a 5 μm epitaxial layer (54 nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology). We compare our radiation tolerance data for LPDDR SDRAM with those of general DDR SDRAM. The data confirms that our devices under test (DUTs) are potential candidates for space flight applications.

This experimental study is carried out one of the General Hospital in Kyungbok providence. Abdomen Phantom being located Anterior-posterior(AP) position on portable bed, and the portable X-ray generating device was placed the phantom at $-90^{\circ}$ direction. The experiment were set 65 kVp, 10 mAs, $10{\times}10\;cm^2$, 100 cm(FOD) for the measurement. Digital proportional counting tube survey meter was used for measuring the space scatter dose. Measurement points of horizontal distribution was set up at $30^{\circ}$ interval by increasing 50 cm radius of upside, downside, left and right. Vertical distribution of measurement points were set up for the vertical plane with a radius of at $30^{\circ}$ intervals with 50cm increments. It is concluded that longer distance from the soure of X-ray significantly decrease radiation dose to the patient and use of the radiation protection device should be applied in clinical practice to reduce dose to the patient.

The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) launched on June 16, 2009 has six experiments including of the Cosmic Ray Telescope for the Effects of Radiation (CRaTER) onboard. The CRaTER instrument characterizes the radiation environment to be experienced by humans during future lunar missions. The CRaTER instrument measures the effects of ionizing energy loss in matter specifically in silicon solid-state detectors due to penetrating solar energetic protons (SEP) and galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) after interactions with tissue-equivalent plastic (TEP), a synthetic analog of human tissue. The CRaTER instrument houses a compact and highly precise microdosimeter. It measures dose rates below one micro-Rad/sec in silicon in lunar radiation environment. Forbush decrease (FD) event is the sudden decrease of GCR flux. We use the data of cosmic ray and dose rates observed by the CRaTER instrument. We also use the CME list of STEREO SECCHI inner, outer coronagraph and the interplanetary CME data of the ACE/MAG instrument.We examine the origins and the characteristics of the FD-like events in lunar radiation environment. We also compare these events with the FD events on the Earth. We find that whenever the FD events are recorded at ground Neutron Monitor stations, the FD-like events also occur on the lunar environments. The flux variation amplitude of FD-like events on the Moon is approximately two times larger than that of FD events on the Earth. We compare time profiles of GCR flux with of the dose rate of FD-like events in the lunar environment. We figure out that the distinct FD-like events correspond to dose rate events in the CRaTER on lunar environment during the event period.

The author studied the histopathologic changes according to a single or a split dose and the time after irradiation on the acinar cells of rat parotid gland. 99 Sprague Dawley rats, weighing about l20gm, were divided into control and 3 experimental groups. In experimental groups, GroupⅠ and Ⅱ were delivered a single dose of l5Gy, 18Gy and Group Ⅲ and Ⅳ were delivered two equal split doses of 9Gy, 10.5Gy for a 4 hours interval, respectively. The experimental groups were delivered by a cobalt-60 teletherapy unit with a dose rate of 222cGy/min, source-skin distance of 50㎝, depth of l㎝ and a field size of l2×5㎝. The animals were sacrificed at 1, 2, 3, 6, 12 hours, 1, 3, 7 days after irradiation and examined by light and electron microscopy. The results were as follows: 1. As the radiation dose increased and the acinar cells delivered a single dose exposure were more damaged, and the change of acinar cells appeared faster than those of a split dose exposure. 2. The histopathologic change of acinar cells appeared at 1 hour after irradiation. The recovery from damaged acinar cells appeared at 1 day after irradiation and there was a tendency that the recovery from damage of a split dose exposure was somewhat later than that of a single dose exposure. 3. Light microscope showed atrophic change of acinar cells and nucleus, degeneration and vesicle formation of cytoplasm, widening of intercellular space and interlobular space. 4. Electron microscope showed loss of nuclear membrane, degeneration of nucleus and nucleoli, clumping of cytoplasm, widening and degeneration of rough endoplasmic reticulum, loss of cristae of mitochondria, lysosome, autophagosome and lipid droplet. 5. Electron microscopically, the change of rough endoplasmic reticulum was the most prominent and this appeared at 1 hour after irradiation as early changes of acinar cells. The nuclear change appeared at 2 hours after irradiation and the loss of cristae of mitochondria was observed at 2 hours after irradiation in all experimental groups.

This paper presents a control theoretic approach to realizing fault tolerance in asynchronous sequential circuits. The considered asynchronous circuit is assumed to work in space environment and is subject to faults caused by total ionizing dose (TID) effects. In our setting, TID effects cause permanent changes in state transition characteristics of the asynchronous circuit. Under a certain condition of reachability redundancy, it is possible to design a corrective controller so that the closed-loop system can maintain the normal behavior despite occurrences of TID faults. As a case study, the proposed control scheme is applied to an asynchronous arbiter implemented in FPGA.

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effective managerial factors influencing dose reduction of the nozzle dam installation and removal tasks ranking within top 3 in viewpoint of average collective dose of nuclear power plant maintenance job. Background: International Commission on Radiation Protection (ICRP) recommended to reduce unnecessary dose and to minimize the necessary dose on the participants of maintenance job in radiation fields. Method: Seven sessions of nozzle dam installation and removal task logs yielded a multiple regression model with collective dose as a dependent variable and work time, number of participants, space doses before and after shield as independent variables. From the sessions in which a significant reduction in collective dose occurred, the effective managerial factors were elicited. Results: Work time was the most important factor contributing to collective dose reduction of nozzle dam installation and removal task. Introduction of new technology in nozzle dam design or maintenance job is the most important factor for work time reduction. Conclusion: With extended task logs and big data processing technique, the more accurate prediction model illustrating the relationship between collective dose reduction and effective managerial factors would be developed. Application: The effective managerial factors will be useful to reduce collective dose of decommissioning tasks as well as regular preventive maintenance tasks for a nuclear power plant.

본 연구는 국가환경방사선 자동감시망이 설치되지 않은 국립공원의 산악 지역을 대상으로 환경방사선을 측정하였다. 측정 방법은 지표 1m 높이에서 공간선량과 지표면에서의 지표선량을 측정하였다. 국립공원 선정은 중부지역과 남부지역을 같은 분포로 하여 전국에 10곳을 선정하였다. 측정장비는 감마선측정에 활용되는 INTERCEPTOR$^{TM}$(Thermo, USA, 2006)를 사용하였다. 방사선측정은 국립공원 입구와 정상에서는 필수적으로 측정하였고, 그 외 지점은 해발 고도를 500m 단위로 구분하여 탐방객이 많이 다니는 곳에서 측정하였다. 측정횟수는 각 지점에서 2분간 장비를 안정시킨 후 5회 이상 측정하였다. 측정결과, 공간감마선량의 경우 1,000m 이하 국립공원에서는 해발 고도 500m 지점에서 높은 선량이 측정되었다. 그 중 북한산, 계룡산, 월출산에서 $0.23{\mu}Svh^{-1}$ 이상인 것으로 확인되었다. 1,000m 이상의 국립공원에서는 설악산 1,500m 지점에서 $1.77{\mu}Svh^{-1}$로 측정되어 백그라운드 기준 선량보다 10배 이상 증가하였다. 선량에 유의한 변화를 보이지 않은 국립공원은 내장산, 소백산, 지리산으로 확인되었다. 환경방사선량이 낮게 측정된 산은 가야산 정상(1,430m)에서 $0.04{\mu}Svh^{-1}$, 한라산 정상(1,950m)에서 $0.03{\mu}Svh^{-1}$인 것으로 확인되었다. 지표선량 측정에서도 중간 높이인 500m, 1,000m에서 높게 측정되었다. 지각 구성물질의 종류에 따른 측정에서는 암석으로 구성된 국립공원에서 높은 선량으로 조사되었으며, 화산활동이 일어났던 한라산에서는 환경방사선량이 낮게 측정되었다.
