  • 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.

  • 의료용 X선 방호는 끊임없이 논쟁이 되고 불필요한 피폭을 막으려는 노력은 많은 연구자들의 관심사였다. X선은 환자를 투과하고 영상을 얻기 까지 피사체와 광전효과, 컴프턴산란 등의 상호작용을 하여 산란선을 만든다. 이 때문에 의료방사선 종사자뿐만 아니라 검사를 받는 환자도 환부 외 영역에 불필요한 산란선 피폭을 받게 된다. 이에 본 연구는 본 연구에서는 여성의 인체를 가정하여, 요추정면 검사 조건으로 X선을 팬텀에 조사한 후 유방근처의 산란선과 갑상샘 근처의 산란선을 측정하였다. 이후 jelly type의 차폐체를 제작하여 산란선 차폐 및 방사선감수성이 높은 부위에서 차폐효과를 확인하는 것이 목표이다, 실험결과 차폐체를 적용하였을 때의 갑상선 측정시 평균 0.16 mR, 왼쪽, 오른쪽 유방 측정 시 평균 0.6 mR, 왼쪽 겨드랑이 0.64 mR, 오른쪽 겨드랑이 0.54 mR 의 산란선 평균을 나타내었으며 약 82%의 산란선 차폐효과를 확인 할 수 있었다. 향후 기존 방호도구와 비교하여 Jelly type의 차폐 체와의 요추 검사에서 발생하는 피폭의 차폐율을 비교하여 기존 방호도구를 대체할 방안으로 제시 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 오르트 구름을 출발하여 태양계 안쪽으로 들어오는 혜성 가운데 오르트 구름으로 되돌아가지 못하고, 태양에 매우 근접하여 태양에 충돌해 버리거나 강한 중력에 의해 쪼개져 사라지는 혜성을 sungrazing comet이라고 한다. 태양에 가까워지면서 태양열에 의해 혜성의 얼음이 승화되면서 그 존재를 확인하게 되는데, 태양풍의 고전리된 중원소이온과 충돌에 의한 전하교환의 상호 작용에 의해 혜성에서 발생하는 가스량과 X-선 방출량을 기존 모델(Mendis & Flammer 1984, Cravens 1997)을 적용하여 근사 계산한 결과, 혜성핵의 반지름이 1km 정도인 경우 태양으로부터 거리가 태양반경의 3배 이내인 거리에서 GOES 위성의 X-선 망원경으로 탐지가능한 것으로 보인다.

  • In this work, we investigated the recently proposed phase-contrast x-ray imaging (PCXI) technique, the so-called single grid-based PCXI, which has great simplicity and minimal requirements on the setup alignment. It allows for imaging of smaller features and variations in the examined sample than conventional attenuation-based x-ray imaging with lower x-ray dose. We performed a systematic simulation using a simulation platform developed by us to investigate the image characteristics. We also performed a preliminary PCXI experiment using an established a table-top setup to demonstrate the performance of the simulation platform. The system consists of an x-ray tube ($50kV_p$, 5 mAs), a focused-linear grid (200-lines/inch), and a flat-panel detector ($48-{\mu}m$ pixel size). According to our results, the simulated contrast of phase images was much enhanced, compared to that of the absorption images. The scattering length scale estimated for a given simulation condition was about 117 nm. It was very similar, at least qualitatively, to the experimental contrast, which demonstrates the performance of the simulation platform. We also found that the level of the phase gradient of oriented structures strongly depended on the orientation of the structure relative to that of linear grids.

  • In this study, the authors attempted to produce a medical radiation shielding fiber that can be produced at a nanosize scale and that is, unlike lead, harmless to the human body. The performance of the proposed medical radiation shielding fiber was then evaluated. First, diamagnetic bismuth oxide, an element which, among elements that have a high atomic number and density, is harmless to the human body, was selected as the shielding material. Next, 10-100 nm sized nanoparticles in powder form were prepared by ball milling the bismuth oxide ($Bi_2O_3$), the average particle size of which is $1-500{\mu}m$, for approximately 10 minutes. The manufactured bismuth oxide was formed into a colloidal solution, and the radiation shielding fabric was fabricated by curing after coating the solution on one side or both sides of the fabric. The thicknesses of the shielding sheets prepared with bismuth oxide were 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, and 1.0 mm. An experimental method was used to measure the absorbed dose and irradiation dose by using the lead equivalent test method of X-ray protection goods presented by Korean Industrial Standards; the resultant shielding rate was then calculated. From the results of this study, the X-ray shielding effect of the shielding sheet with 0.1 mm thickness was about 55.37% against 50 keV X-ray, and the X-ray shielding effect in the case of 1.0 mm thickness showed shielding characteristics of about 99.36% against 50 keV X-ray. In conclusion, it is considered that nanosized-bismuth radiation shielding fiber developed in this research will contribute to reducing the effects of primary X-ray and secondary X-ray such as when using a scattering beam at a low level exposure.

  • 무릎 과간와 X선 촬영법은 Holmblad법, Camp-Coventry법, Beclere법의 다양한 방법들이 임상에서 시행되고 있다. 무릎관절의 과간와 촬영은 단순 골절과 십자인대와 관련한 진단에 기본검사로 많이 시행되고 있으며 환자의 상태와 통증을 고려하여 안전한 방법을 선택하게 되는데, Holmblad법은 카세트에 밀착되는 무릎 부위에서 통증을 유발할 수 있으므로 쉽게 사용하지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자체 제작한 평면 원형 cone을 카세트에 부착하여 Holmblad법 자세에서 통증 경감에 대한 인식을 파악하기 위해 100명의 자원자의 설문지를 비교 분석하였고, 산란선에 의한 영상화질의 농도는 인체 팬텀을 X선으로 촬영하여 농도계로 측정 하였다. 그 결과 Holmblad법 자세에서 통증에 대한 인식은 평균 99% 경감되었으며, 팬텀을 이용하여 촬영한 X선 필름에 대한 농도는 자체 제작한 평면 원형 cone을 사용하지 않은 카세트에 비교하여 산란선에 의한 농도변화가 통계적으로 유의하게 감소되어 임상에서 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • The mechanical alloying (MA) effect in immiscible V-Cu system with positive heat of mixing was studied by not only the neutron and X-ray diffraction but also the analysis of DSC spectra. The total energy, ΔHt accumulated during MA for the mixture of $V_{50}$ $Cu_{50}$ / powders increased with milling time and approached the saturation value of 14 kJ/mol after 120 h of milling. It can be seen that the free energy difference between the amorphous phase and the pure V and Cu powders with an atomic ratio 5:5 is estimated to be 11 kJ/mol by Miedema et al. This is thermodynamically taken as one of the evidences for the amorphization. The structural changes of V-Cu MA powders were characterized by the X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction. We take a full advantage of a negligibly small scattering length of the V atom in the neutron diffraction measurement. The neutron diffraction data definitely indicate that the amorphization proceeds gradually but incompletely even after 120 h of MA and bcc-Cu Bragg peaks appears after 60 h of MA.

  • The study was carried out by numerical integration based on the diffraction properties and elemental composition. The elemental compositions of breast tissues in the literature were tested. The photon attenuation coefficients calculated using the recent elemental composition were found within 0.2-16% for adipose tissue and within 0.04-17% for glandular tissue with the experimental reference data. The attenuation coefficients of cancerous breast tissue calculated according to the elemental content previously measured in breast cancer patients were found within 0-17% with experimental data in the literature. The attenuation coefficients are of great interest to medical research. To calculate realistic attenuation coefficients, the characteristic coherent scatter, which is most intense at small angles, must be considered. For this reason, experimentally measured form factor data were reviewed, and the most compatible one with the theoretical form factor data produced in this study was used at low momentum transfer x (0 < x ≤ 8 nm-1). The differential linear coherent scattering distributions were calculated for an energy value of 17.44 keV and compared with their experimental counterparts.
