PVP-protected Ag, Pd and $Pt_{50}-Ru_{50}$ colloids were prepared independently by using ${\gamma}$-irradiation and electron beam (EB) at ambient temperature. UV-visible spectra of these colloids show the characteristic bands of surface resonance and give evidence for the formation of nanoparticles. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) experiments were used to know the morphology of nanoparticles prepared by ${\gamma}$-irradiation and EB. The size of Ag, Pd, and $Pt_{50}-Ru_{50}$ nanoparticles prepared by ${\gamma}$-irradiation was ca. 13, 2-3, 15 nm, respectively. While, the size of Ag, Pd, and $Pt_{50}-Ru_{50}$ nanoparticles prepared by EB was ca. 10, 6, and 1-3 nm, respectively. Cyclic voltamograms (CV) were recorded for the Au electrodes immobilized with these nanoparticles. CVs indicated the modifications in the surface as a result of immobilization.

양성자가속기연구센터(KOMAC)의 100-MeV 양성자 선형가속기에서 생성된 고에너지 양성자를 사용하여 천연 텅스텐과 핵반응을 일으켰다. 핵반응을 통해 생성된 다양한 핵종으로 부터의 감마선은 HPGe 검출기 감마선 분광시스템을 사용하여 측정하였다. 감마선 표준선원은 에너지 교정 및 검출기의 효율 측정에 사용되었다. 측정된 스펙트럼에서 관찰된 감마선을 분석한 결과 방사성 핵종은 $^{167}Re$, $^{178}Re$, $^{179}Re$, $^{180}Re$, $^{181}Re$, $^{182}Re$, $^{184}Re$, $^{172}Ta$, $^{174}Ta$, $^{178}Ta$, $^{182}Ta$, $^{184}Ta$, $^{175}W$, $^{176}W$, $^{177}W$ 및 $^{179}W$ 으로 총 16 종류의 핵종이 생성되었다. 이 연구의 결과는 미래의 핵융합, 천체 물리학 및 핵의학 응용 분야에 적용될 것으로 생각된다.

A field determination method for small D-T neutron source yield based on the oxygen prompt gamma rays was established. A neutron-gamma transport equation of the determination device was developed. Two yield field determination devices with a thickness of 20 mm and 50 mm were made. The count rates of the oxygen prompt gamma rays were calculated using three energy spectra processing approaches, which were the characteristic peak of 6.13 MeV, the overlapping peak of 6.92 MeV and 7.12 MeV, and the total energy area. The R-square of the calibration curve is better than 94% and the maximum error of the yield test is 5.21%, demonstrating that it is feasible to measure the yield of D-T neutron source by oxygen prompt gamma rays. Additionally, the results meet the requirements for field determination of the conventional D-T neutron source yield.

Poly-${\gamma}$-glutamic acid (${\gamma}$-PGA)는 청국장이 발효할 때 생성되는 점질성 물질의 하나로, monomer glutamic acid의 ${\alpha}$-아미노기와 ${\gamma}$-카르복실기 사이의 amide linkage에 의해 결합된 D(-)와 L(-) glutamic acid repeat units로 이루어진 homopolymer이다. 주로 Bacillus sp.에 의해 생산된다. ${\gamma}$-PGA는 수용성, 음이온성, 무독성, 생분해성, 생체적 합성, 식용 등의 다양한 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 여러 분야에서 응용되고 있다. 본 실험에서 ${\gamma}$-PGA를 생산하는 균주를 우리나라의 전통발효식품인 청국장으로부터 분리하였다. 분리균주의 형태 및 배양학적, 생리학적 특성, API kit 및 16S rRNA 서열을 사용하여 동정한 결과, 분리균주 GS-2는 B. subtilis와 가장 유사하여 B. subtilis GS-2로 명명하였다. 분리 정제된 ${\gamma}$-PGA의 동정은 TLC, HPLC, FTIR 그리고 $^1H$-NMR spectroscopy를 통하여 확인하였다.

We present near-infrared spectroscopic and photometric observations of the nova V2468 Cyg taken from 2008 March 14 till 2008 November 11 following its outburst on 2008 March 7. The JHK spectra of the nova have been taken from the Mount Abu Infrared Observatory using the Near-Infrared Imager/Spectrometer. The early spectra are dominated by strong H I lines from the Brackett and Paschen series, Fe II, O I and C I lines, typical of Fe II type novae but after 46 days from outburst there is significant reduction in the strength of the C I lines and the spectra are dominated by He I lines. The FWHM of the Pa-beta and Br-gamma lines change from 2200-2300 km s-1 to 1700-1800 km s-1 after 12 days from outburst. Three additional small amplitude outbursts are seen near 110, 185 and 240 days in the V band light curve after the discovery. The upper limit for the ejecta mass for V2468 Cyg is estimated to be $5.2{\times}10-6Msun$.

We have investigated optical characteristics of $p-Ge_{0.99}Sn_{0.01}$ and Ge films grown on Si substrates using photoreflectance (PR) spectroscopy. The $Ge_{0.99}Sn_{0.01}$ and Ge films were grown by using an ultra-high vacuum chemical vapor deposition and molecular beam epitaxy methods, respectively. PR spectra were measured at 25 K and an extended InGaAs detector was used. By comparing $Ge_{0.99}Sn_{0.01}/Si$ and Ge/Si spectra, we observed the signals related to direct transition and split-off band of $Ge_{0.99}Sn_{0.01}$. The transition energies of $Ge_{0.99}Sn_{0.01}$ and Ge films were approximately 0.74 and 0.84 eV, respectively. Considering the shift of split-off band transition of $Ge_{0.99}Sn_{0.01}$, we suppose that the transition at 0.74 eV is attributed to direct transition between ${\Gamma}$ band and valence band. The temperature- and excitation power-dependent PR spectra were also measured.

Most high energy cosmic rays (CRs) are thought to be produced by diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) in supernova remnants (SNRs) within the Galaxy. Plasma and MHD simulations have shown that the self-excitation of MHD waves and amplification of magnetic fields via plasma instabilities are an integral part of DSA for strong collisionless shocks. In this study we explore how plasma processes such as plasma instabilities and wave-particle interactions can affect the energy spectra of CR protons and electrons, using time-dependent DSA simulations of SNR shocks. We demonstrate that the time-dependent evolution of the shock dynamics, the self-amplified magnetic fields and $Alfv{\acute{e}nic$ drift govern the highest energy end of the CR energy spectra. As a result, the spectral cutoffs in nonthermal X-ray and ${\gamma}$-ray radiation spectra are regulated by the evolution of the highest energy particles, which are injected at the early phase of SNRs. We also find that the maximum energy of CR protons can be boosted significantly only if the scale height of the magnetic field precursor is long enough to contain the diffusion lengths of the particles of interests. Thus, detailed understandings of nonlinear wave-particle interactions and time-dependent DSA simulations are crucial for understanding the nonthermal radiation from CR acceleration sources.

In this research, for improving the measurement performance of Prompt Gamma-ray Neutron Activation Analysis (PGNAA) set-up, a new optimization method for set-up design was proposed and investigated. At first, the calculation method for Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) was proposed. Since the SNR could be calculated and quantified accurately, the SNR was chosen as the evaluation parameter in the new optimization method. For discussing the feasibility of the SNR optimization method, two kinds of PGNAA set-ups were designed in the MCNP code, based on the SNR optimization method and the previous signal optimization method, respectively. Meanwhile, the single element spectra analysis method was proposed, and the analysis effect of single element spectra as well as element sensitivity were used for comparing the measurement performance. Since the simulation results showed the better measurement performance of set-up designed by SNR optimization method, the experimental set-ups were built for the further testing, finally demonstrating the feasibility of the SNR optimization method for PGNAA setup design.

In order to check whether the 4-degree objective prism spectra can be used for deep spectroscopic studies of galactic structure, we measured the Rose(1984)'s seven indices between 3500 A and 4400 A for 19 Hyades stars on the Kiso Schmidt prism plate, K3496. By comparing the $4^{\circ}$-indices with those of Rose(1984), we have found that $H{\delta}/FeI$, $H{\gamma}/4325$, and P(3912)/P(CN) measured on the 4-degree prism spectra, are still useful for the derivation physical parameters.

As a serial experiment of radiosterilization of medical products, we investigated the feasibility of using gamma ray to sterilize antibiotics, tetracycline HCl. Tetracycline HCl in aqueous solution and dried state irradiated with several dose levels was assayed for physico-chemical properties by checking UV absorption spectra, paper chromatogrph. IR spectra and NMR sepctra, and antibiotic activities by [means of agar plaque technique and tube $d_1$]ution method. In physico-chemical propertis and biological activities, the teracycline HCl in dried state remained radioresistant up to exposure of 10 Mrad, however, in aqueous solution, the dose of 300 Krad produced a significant inactivation. From the results of this study, radiosterilization of tetracycline HCl is more recommendable in the dried state than in aqueous solution.
