RI-Biomics field comes into the limelight as a new fusion radiation technology. These rapid development of RI-Biomics cause the necessity of establishment of a new methodical education program model for consistent training of professional manpower in RI-ADME, Biomics field. But domestic current status is not satisfied to training human resource development in RI-Biomics. Actually domestic educational organization related to RI-Biomics just run educational programs oriented basic theory, so practical and fusion education are not existed nowadays for preliminary RI-Biomics expert. Therefore we established a new education program model for educate of the expert in RI-Biomics field to overcome current problem about the route of knowledge that has more monotonous and concentrated tendency and non-professional education. To improve universality and practicality, we conduct education-training model survey about domestic and foreign country. This new human resource development model will contribute to fostering new expert in RI-Biomics field.

Japanese activities on fusion structural materials R&D have been well organized under the coordination of university programs and JAERI/NIMS programs more than two decades. Where, two categories of structural materials have been studied, those are; reduced activation martensitic/ferritic steels (RAFs) as reference material and vanadium alloys and SiC/SiC composite materials as advanced materials. The R&D histories of these candidate materials and the present status in Japan are reviewed with the emphasis on materials behavior under radiation damage. The importance of IFMIF and technology development for blanket R&D including ITER-TBRG activity is emphasized and the current status of those activities in Japan is also presented.

The development of radiation detection systems mainly consist of two parts-radiation detector fabrication including material development, and its appropriate electronics development. For the core-technology incubation of a radiation detection system, radiation fabrication and an evaluation facility are scheduled to be founded at the RFT (Radiation Fusion Technology) Center at KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) by 2015. This facility is utilized for the development and incubation of bottleneck-technologies to accelerate the industrialization of a radiation detection system in the industrial, medical, and radiation security fields. This facility is also utilized for researchers to develop next-generation radiation detection instruments. In this paper, the establishment of core-technology development is introduced and its technological mission is addressed.

In this study, a neural network model inspired by a one-dimensional convolution U-net is developed to automatically accelerate edge localized mode (ELM) detection from big diagnostic data of fusion devices and increase the detection accuracy regardless of the hyperparameter setting. This model recognizes the input signal patterns and overcomes the problems of existing detection algorithms, such as the prominence algorithm and those of differential methods with high sensitivity for the threshold and signal intensity. To train the model, 10 sets of discharge radiation data from the KSTAR are used and sliced into 11091 inputs of length 12 ms, of which 20% are used for validation. According to the receiver operating characteristic curves, our model shows a positive prediction rate and a true prediction rate of approximately 90% each, which is comparable to the best detection performance afforded by other algorithms using their optimized hyperparameters. The accurate and automatic ELM-burst detection methodology used in our model can be beneficial for determining plasma properties, such as the ELM frequency from big data measured in multiple experiments using machines from the KSTAR device and ITER. Additionally, it is applicable to feature detection in the time-series data of other engineering fields.

Mushrooms belonging to macrofungi have been consumed by humans for their nutritional and medicinal values for centuries throughout the world. Mushroom farming is practiced in more than 100 countries of the world, with production increasing at a rate of 7% per annum. High yield and good quality are always the principal goals for agriculturally important crops, including mushrooms. Several breeding methods are employed for strain improvement such as mass selection based on the natural chance mutation and induced mutation (mutation breeding), protoplast fusion technology, cross breeding and transgenic breeding. However, mutation breeding has shown prominent success in crop plant improvement. Though several-hundred mutant crop varieties have been developed around the world, the mutation breeding of mushrooms is limited. This review paper explores the potential application of radiation on the development of mutant varieties of mushrooms for breeding with desired traits such as better quality and productivity.

본 논문은 생체신호를 측정하는 팔목부착용 Fitbit Flex상에 구현된 방사패턴 재구성 안테나에 관련된 논문이다. 또한 본 논문에서 제안하는 루프-다이폴 방사패턴 재구성 안테나의 인체 내 부위별 전자파 흡수율 (Specific Absorption Rate; SAR)에 관한 논문이다. 본 논문의 루프-다이폴 방사패턴 재구성 안테나는 두 개의 RF 스위치를 사용하여 서로 반대방향의 두 가지 방사패턴을 구현한다. 방사패턴 재구성 안테나는 블루투스 (Bluetooth) 통신 대역 (2.4 - 2.485 GHz)을 사용하며, 최대이득은 1.96 dBi이다. SAR 시뮬레이션 결과로 블루투스 입력 평균전력 0.04 W가 팔목을 포함하는 인체 내 다섯 개 부위 (두부, 가슴, 배, 등, 팔목)에 입력되었을 때 Federal Communication Commission (FCC)의 기준인 단위 1 g 당 1.6 W/kg을 모두 만족함을 확인하였다. 또한 최대 SAR 값은 두부에서 1.12 W/kg이다.

중증외상 환자 CT(Computed Tomography)검사 시 검사 보조자의 방사선 피폭경감을 위하여 새로운 융합적 모델의 망토 차폐체를 제작하여 그 유용성을 평가하고자 한다. 실험 방법으로 뇌혈관 CT 검사와 동일한 조건에서 두부 팬텀과 인체 팬텀을 이용하여 기존 차폐체와 새롭게 개발된 망토 차폐체를 이용하여 심장, 양쪽 액와부 그리고 갑상샘 부위를 유리선량계로 피폭선량을 측정하였다. 새롭게 개발된 차폐체가 기존의 차폐체 보다 방사선 차폐율이 심장 61.9 %, 좌측액와부 46.2 %, 우측액와부 69.8 %, 그리고 갑상샘 71.1 % 로 각각 높게 측정되었다. 새롭게 개발된 망토 차폐체가 방사선 피폭을 감소시키는데 매우 유용하며 향후 새롭게 개발된 융합적 모델의 망토 차폐차가 방사선 피폭을 감소시키는데 있어 큰 기여를 할 것으로 판단된다.

Radiation technology (RT) has long been applied in various fields for increasing the safety and shelf-life of foods by controlling pathogen-induced poisoning. RT was introduced for the first time in Korea in the 1950s to eliminate harmful microorganisms in food materials. In the 1980s, RT had been scientifically proven to be effective for the sterilization of food and public health products. In recent years, irradiation with gamma rays has also been used for improving physiological properties through the structural modification of natural molecules, which has been proposed to be applicable to various industries. In particular, radiation transformation technology (RTT), which involves the development of new functional compounds through the molecular conversion of natural biomaterials, is becoming a new high-value technology as a fusion technique of RT and biotechnology. The present reports have suggested that RTT can be an effective tool for the development of new functional compounds and improvement of the physiological activity of biomolecules.

Silicon PIN diode radiation sensors and CMOS readout circuits were designed and fabricated in this study. The PIN diodes were fabricated using a 380-${\mu}m$-thick 4-inch n+ Si (111) wafer containing a $2-k{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ n- thin epitaxial layer. CMOS readout circuits employed the driving and signal processes in a radiation sensor were mixed with digital logic and analog input circuits. The primary functions of readout circuits are amplification of sensor signals and the generation of the alarm signals when radiation events occur. The radiation sensors and CMOS readout circuits were fabricated in the Institute of Semiconductor Fusion Technology (ISFT) semiconductor fabrication facilities located in Kyungpook National University. The performance of the readout circuit combined with the Si PIN diode sensor was demonstrated.

Terpenes constitute a large class of secondary metabolites in plants. The Oryza sativa terpene synthase is a vital gene in plant defense response. In this study, the molecular and physiological functions of Oryza sativa terpene synthase 30 (OsTPS30, LOC_Os08g07080) were investigated after exposure of the seeds and plants to gamma-rays. The OsTPS30 expression was slightly induced at 200 Gray (Gy), but was significantly induced at 400 Gy. The total terpenoid was synthesized more in OsTPS30-overexpressing (OX-OsTPS30) Arabidopsisthaliana plants than in wild-type (WT) plants. The OX-OsTPS30 plants exhibited resistance to gamma-rays, as compared to WT. The OX-OsTPS30 plants had significantly increased height and weight after gamma irradiation. Additionally, the activity of antioxidant enzymes was increased more in OX OsTPS30 plants than in WT plants after gamma irradiation. Furthermore, the OsTPS30-GFP fusion protein was mostly localized in the chloroplast, suggesting that OsTPS30 is putative MEP pathway-related terpene synthase.
