Energy calibration is important to identify accurate neutron capture resonance energy in the neutron TOF (Time-of-Flight) experiment. In present study, the accurate neutron capture resonance energies of natural Sm were measured by using a 46-MeV electron linear accelerator (linac) at the Research Reactor Institute, Kyoto University(KURRI). The BGO spectrometer were adopted for measurement the prompt capture gamma-ray of the sample. To obtain energy calibration curve, resonance energy of a gold sample used as standard resonance energy Mughabghab's data (From neutron resonance parameters data). Previous data (by Mughabghab) of natural Sm sample have been compared with the present result.

In this work, the problem of resonance caused by some gravitational potentials due to Mercury and a third body, namely the Sun, together with some non-gravitational perturbations, specifically coronal mass ejections and solar wind in addition to radiation pressure, are investigated. Some simplifying assumptions without loss of accuracy are employed. The considered force model is constructed. Then the Delaunay canonical set is introduced. The Hamiltonian of the problem is obtained then it is expressed in terms of the Deluanay canonical set. The Hamiltonian is re-ordered to adopt it to the perturbation technique used to solve the problem. The Lie transform method is surveyed. The Hamiltonian is doubly averaged. The resonance capture is investigated. Finally, some numerical simulations are illustrated and are analyzed. Many resonant inclinations are revealed.

Gd-157 material has very large neutron capture cross section in the thermal region. So it is very useful to shield material for thermal neutrons. Futhermore, in the neutron capture experiment and calculation, the neutron absorption and scattering are very important. Especially these effects are conspicuous in the resonance energy region and below the thermal energy region. In the case of very narrow resonance, the effect of scattering is to be more considerable factor. In the present study, we obtained energy dependent neutron absorption ratios of natural indium in energy region from 0.003 to 100 keV by MCNP-4B Code. The coefficients for neutron absorption was calculated for circular type and 1 mm thickness. In the lower energy region, neutron absorption is larger than higher region, because of large capture cross section (1/v). Furthermore it seems very different neutron absorption in the large resonance energy region. These results are very useful to decide the thickness of sample and shielding materials.

본 연구는 자연 속에 미량(존재비: 0.012 %)으로 존재하는 $^{180}Ta$의 중성자포획 공명에 대하여 포획단면적의 계산치와 측정치를 비교하여 분석하였다. 일반적으로 중성자 공명은 Breit-Wigner식으로 정의되며, 식에는 공명에너지를 중심으로 공명의 폭을 결정하는 다양한 인자들로 구성되어 있다. 그러나 $^{180}Ta$의 경우 중성자포획단면적과 공명에 대한 정보가 잘 알려져 있지 않고 실험적으로도 측정되어진 예가 현재까지는 없는 것이 현실이다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 천연 Ta속에 포함되어진 $^{180}Ta$에 의한 중성자 포획에 의해 발생되는 감마선을 관측하여 $^{180}Ta$의 공명을 분석하고 Mughabghab에 의해서 계산되어진 공명인자를 사용하여 1 eV이하의 에너지에 대한 중성자포획단면적을 계산하고 비교분석하였다. 측정을 위해서 교토대학원자로 실험소의 46-MeV 전자선형가속기를 이용하여 중성자 TOF 방법으로, 에너지 영역 0.003 eV에서 10 eV에 걸쳐 측정하였다. 측정을 위해서는 12개의 $Bi_4Ge_3O_{12}(BGO)$섬광체로 구성된 전에너지 흡수검출장치로 $^{180}Ta(n,{\gamma})^{181}Ta$ 반응으로부터 나오는 즉발감마선을 측정하였다.

In the present study, the performance of a floating oscillating water column (OWC) device has been studied in regular waves. The OWC model has the shape of a hollow cylinder. The linear potential theory is assumed, and a matched eigenfunction expansion method(MEEM) is applied for solving the diffraction and radiation problems. The radiation problem involves the radiation of waves by the heaving motion of a floating OWC device and the oscillating pressure in the air chamber. The characteristics of the exciting forces, hydrodynamic forces, flow rate, air pressure in the chamber, and heave motion response are investigated with various system parameters, such as the inner radius, draft of an OWC, and turbine constant. The efficiency of a floating OWC device is estimated in connection with the extracted wave power and capture width. Specifically, the piston-mode resonance in an internal fluid region plays an important role in the performance of a floating OWC device, along with the heave motion resonance. The developed prediction tool will help determine the various design parameters affecting the performance of a floating OWC device in waves.

본 연구는 천연 인듐의 중성자폭획 후에 발생된 감마선을 12개의 BGO($Bi_4Ge_3O_{12}$) 섬광검출기로 구성된 검출장치를 이용하여 즉발감마선을 측정하여 중성자공명에 의해서 발생된 감마선을 분석하여 중성자의 에너지 1 ~ 300 eV 영역에 대하여 공명에너지를 분석하였다. 사용되어진 검출장치는 시료에서 발생된 즉발감마선에 대하여 모든 감마선을 측정할 수 있는 기하학적인 구조로 만들어졌다. 중성자원으로는 교토대학의 원자로연구소의 46-MeV 전자선형가속기의 광핵반응에서 발생하는 중성자를 이용하였다. 중성자발생원으로부터 검출기까지의 거리가 $12.7{\pm}0.02m$이므로 광핵반응에서 발생하는 강한 X선의 영향을 고려하여 수 keV영역이하의 중성자에너지에 대하여 중성자공명을 측정하였다. 측정되어진 공명들은 1 eV이상의 에너지 영역에서 거대 공명들을 측정하였고 이들 공명들은 이론에서 알려진 값들과 비교하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 기존에 알려진 거대 공명의 에너지를 확인하였고, 100 eV이상의 에너지 영역에서의 공명에너지들에 대한 평가에 의한 이론값들이 실제로 존재하는 공명임을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 1 keV 이상의 영역에 대하여는 공명이 연속적인 구조를 보이고 있음을 실험적으로 확인했으며 공명에 대하여 통계적인 평가가 있어야함을 알았다. 91.49 eV 공명은 본 연구를 통하여 처음 발견되어진 공명이라 볼 수 있다.

In this article, we report the tandem mass spectrometry investigations for the electron capture efficiencies of the protons belonging to the different locations (generations) in a poly(propylene imine) dendrimer with three layers of a repeat unit (named as the third generation dendrimer). The employed tandem mass spectrometry methods include SORI-CAD (sustained off-resonance irradiation collisional activation dissociation) and ECD(electron capture dissociation) mass spectrometry. We obtained SORI-CAD spectra for the dendrimer ions in the different charge states, ranging from 2+ to 4+. The analysis of fragmentation sites provides the information as to where the protons are distributed among various generations of the dendrimer. Based upon this, a new strategy to study the electron capture efficiencies of the protons is utilized to examine a new type of triplycharged ions by SORI-CAD, i.e., the 3+ ions generated from the charge reduction of the native 4+ ions by ECD: (M+4H)$^{4+}\;+\;e^-\;{\rightarrow}$ (M+4H)$^{3+\bullet}$ ${\rightarrow}\;({H^{\bullet}}_{ejected}$) + (M+3H)$^{3+}\;\rightarrow$ CAD. Interestingly, comparison of these four SORICAD spectra indicates that the proton distribution in the charge-reduced 3+ ions is very close to that in the native 4+ ions. It further suggests that in this synthetic polymer ($\sim$1.7 kDa) with an artificial architecture, the electron capture efficiencies of the protons are actually insensitive to where they are located in the molecule. This is somewhat contradictory to common expectations that the protons in the inner generations may not be well exposed to the incoming electron irradiation as much as the outer ones are, thus may be less efficient for electron capture. This finding may carry some implications for the case of medium sized peptide ions with similar masses, which are known to show no obvious site-specific fragmentations in ECD MS.

Exosomes, known as nanoscale extracellular vesicles in the range of 30-150 nm, are known to contain clinically significant information. However, there is still insufficient information on exosomal membrane proteins for cancer diagnosis. In this work, we investigated the characteristics of the membrane proteins of exosomes shed by cultured breast cancer cell lines using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy and pre-activated alkanethiols modified sensor chips. The antibodies of breast cancer biomarkers such as MCU-16, EpCAM, CD24, ErbB2, and CA19-9 were immobilized on the pre-activated alkanethiols surfaces without any activation steps. The purified exosomes were loaded onto each antibody surface. The affinity rank of the antibody surfaces was decided by the relative capture efficiency factors for the exosomes. In addition, an antibody with a relative capture efficiency close to 100% was tested with exosome concentration levels of 10⁴/µl, 10⁵/µl, and 10⁶/µl for quantitative analysis.

$^{237}Np$ is very important material in the fission products of nuclear reactors. Resonance integral(RI) tests of this material is necessary to check between the experiments and the evaluated data. Such feedback to the evaluated data is very important to correct data and improve of codes. The RI for the $^{237}Np(n,{\gamma})^{238}Np$ reaction were measured by using the 46-MeV electron linear accelerator (linac) at the Research Reactor Institute, Kyoto University (KURRI). The measurement was performed in the energy region from 0.005 eV and 10 keV. RI obtained as 804.7 barns, compared with those of the evaluated data in JENDL-4.0 and Mughabghab.

천연 탄탈의 중성자포획에 의한 공명에너지를 측정하기 위하여 교토대학의 원자로연구소의 46-MeV 전자선형가속기의 광핵반응에서 발생하는 중성자를 이용하였다. 중성자포획에서 발생되는 즉발감마선을 BGO($Bi_4Ge_3O_{12}$)섬광검출장치로 측정하였다. 검출장치는 탄탈 시료에서 발생되는 즉발감마선을 기하학적으로 모두 측정하도록 만들어져 있으며 측정되어진 전기적 신호를 탄탈의 중성자 공명에너지 동정하는 스펙트럼구성에 사용하였다. 연구에서 사용되어진 중성자의 에너지는 1 ~ 200 eV 영역에 대하여 각각의 공명에너지를 분석하였다. 중성자에너지 측정은 중성자 비행시간법(TOF: Time-of-Flight)을 통하여 측정하였다. 광핵반응을 통한 중성자발생에서는 고에너지영역에서 강한 제동복사선이 발생하므로 수 keV영역 이하 영역의 중성자에너지에 대해서만 중성자공명을 측정하였다. 얻어진 Ta에 대한 중성자 포획 공명에너지 측정결과는 이전의 실험에 의한 측정 결과들 및 ENDF/B-VI와 Mughabghab의 평가된 값들과 비교 및 검토를 하였다. 측정되어진 공명들은 4.28 eV에서 거대 공명들을 측정하였고 그 이상의 에너지 영역의 다른 공명들도 이론에 의해서 계산되어진 값들과 비교하였다. 144.3 eV를 제외한 공명들은 평가값들과 거의 일치하는 경향을 보였다.
