Spectroscopic observations of barium star ${\zeta}$ Capricornus (HD204075) obtained at the 8.2 m telescope of the European Southern Observatory, with a spectral resolving power R = 80,000 and signal to noise ratio greater than 300, were used to refine the atmospheric parameters. We found new values for effective temperature ($T_{eff}=5,300{\pm}50K$), surface gravity ($log\;g=1.82{\pm}0.15$), micro-turbulent velocity ($v_{micro}=2.52{\pm}0.10km/s$), and iron abundance ($log\;N(Fe)=7.32{\pm}0.06$). Previously published abundances of chemical elements in the atmosphere of HD204075 were analyzed and no correlations of these abundances with the second ionization potentials of these elements were found. This excludes the possible influence of accretion of hydrogen and helium atoms from the interstellar or circumstellar environment to the atmosphere of this star. The accretion of nuclear processed matter from the evolved binary companion was primary cause of the abundance anomalies. The young age of HD204075 allows an estimation of the time-scale for the creation of the abundance anomalies arising from accretion of interstellar hydrogen and helium as is the case of stars with low magnetic fields; which we estimate should exceed $10^8$ years.

The reanalysis of the previously published abundance pattern of mild barium star HD202109 (${\zeta}$ Cyg) and the chemical compositions of 129 thin disk barium stars facilitated the search for possible correlations of different stellar parameters with second ionization potentials of chemical elements. Results show that three valuable correlations exist in the atmospheres of barium stars. The first is the relationship between relative abundances and second ionization potentials. The second is the age dependence of mean correlation coefficients of relative abundances vs. second ionization potentials, and the third one is the changes in correlation coefficients of relative abundances vs. second ionization potentials as a function of stellar spatial velocities and overabundances of s-process elements. These findings demonstrate the possibility of hydrogen and helium accretion from the interstellar medium on the atmospheres of barium stars.

In order to increase the completeness of the investigations of stellar abundances, we can use spectrum synthesis method, new atomic data and observation of stellar spectra with resolution comparable to solar spectral atlases. We made a brief review of main problems of these three ways. We present new results of abundance determinations in the atmospheres of four stars. The first is the implementation of new atomic data to well known Przybylski's star. We show that the number of spectral lines, which can be identificated in the spectrum of this star, can be significantly higher. The second example is the investigation of $\zeta$ Cyg. We found the abundances of 51 elements in the atmosphere of this mild barium star. The third example is halo star HD221170. Our preliminary abundance pattern consists of 42 elements. The heaviest elements in this pattern are U and Th. The last star is the spectroscopic binary HD153720. The number of elements investigated in the spectra of components of this star is not large, but the results show that the components are Am-stars.

본 연구는 의료방사선 차폐를 위해 의료 환경에 적합한 친환경 소재를 찾아 방사선 차폐 시트 제작의 가능성을 추정하고자 하는 것이다. 현재 차폐 소재로 주로 사용되는 납을 대신한 텅스텐 제품이 많이 있으나, 경제성으로 인해 경량의 차폐 시트의 대량생산에는 다소 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 경제성 있는 경량 친환경 소재를 필요로 한다. 이러한 소재로써 본 연구에서는 황산바륨과 요오드를 제안하였다. 두 물질은 방사선 촬영에서 이미 조영제로 사용되고 있어 방사선을 흡수하는 특성으로 차폐 재료로써 일정 영역에서 충분히 차폐효과가 있을 것으로 예측하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 방사선 차폐 재료로 검증하기 위해 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 모의 추정하였다. 황산바륨과 요오드 등 조영제인 경우 고에너지 영역에서 방사선 흡수효과가 크게 나타나, 의료방사선 고관전압 촬영영역 120 kV의 두께별 에너지영역에서 두 차폐물질의 유효성을 평가하였다. 모의 추정 결과 두 물질 모두 차폐의 유효성을 추정할 수 있었다. 요오드가 황산바륨보다 차폐효과 높았으며, 0.05mm 두께에서는 효과성이 크게 나타났다. 따라서 방사선차폐 시트의 제작 재료로 방사선 조영제인 요오드도 황산바륨과 같이 가능하다는 것을 몬데카를로 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인 할 수 있다.
