The base pressure of the vacuum vessel of KSTAR tokamak is to be ultra high vacuum, $10^{-6}\sim10^{-7}Pa$, to produce a clean plasma with low impurity concentrations. For this purpose, vessel and plasma facing components need to be baked up to $250^{\circ}C$, $350^{\circ}C$ respectively to remove impurities from the plasma-material interaction surfaces. Here the required heating power to be supplied for baking has been calculated according to pre-assumed different temperature profiles (baking scenario and proper baking plan for KSTAR tokamak has been proposed. Mass flow rate and temperature of nitrogen gas for baking has also been calculated.

The goals of this study are to elucidate the plasma effects on DNA molecules to apply some plasma based applications and also to find out the mechanisms of plasma-induced DNA damage in biomolecule. Nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasma has much potential for medical, agricultural and food applications for the future. The atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) contains radicals, charged particles, low energy electrons, excited molecules and UV light. It has been started doing experiments using APPJ at the early 21th. And some recent results showed that APPJ has a possibility to apply to new fields like mentioned above. But it is kind of at the very early stages of plasma based application. It is definitely necessary much of theoretical and experimental studies to further understanding to use nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasma in biomedical, agriculture and food parts. Here we introduce a new experimental system to study plasma effects on biomolecules. And we will show some recent results of LEE-induced DNA damage using electron irradiation apparatus under ultra-high vacuum.
