Having its roots in medical applications, industrial gamma ray CT has opened up new roads far investigating and modeling industrial processes. Using a line of research related to industrial gamma ray CT, the authors set up a system of single source and detector gamma transmission tomography for wood timber and a packed bed phantom. The hardware of the CT system consists of two servo motors, a data logger, a computer, a radiation source and a radiation detector. One motor simultaneously moves the source and the detector for a parallel beam scanning, whereas the other motor rotates the scan table at a preset projection angle. The image is reconstructed from the measured projections by the filtered back projection method. The phantom was designed to simulate a cross section of a packed bed with a void. The radiation source was 20mCi of Cs-137 and the detector was a 1 inch $\times$ 1 inch NaI (TI) scintillator shielded by a lead collimator. The experimental gamma ray CT image has sufficient resolution to reveal air holes and the density distribution inside the phantom. The system could possibly be applied to a packed bed column or a pipe flow in a petrochemical plant.

After changing the heat treating atmosphere of nitrogen gas, argon gas and vacuum, the nitrogen contents, microstructural changes, hardness and corrosion resistance of 0.25wt.%N alloyed super duplex stainless steel have been investigated in the temperature range from $1050^{\circ}C$ to $1350^{\circ}C$. The nitrogen content showed to be increased up to 0.36wt.% after heat treating the specimen in nitrogen gas at $1200^{\circ}C$, while the decrement of nitrogen content in vacuum atmosphere was shown down to 0.03wt.% at $1350^{\circ}C$. After heat treating in the mixed gas atmosphere of argon and nitrogen at $1250^{\circ}C$, the surface ${\gamma}$ phase existed as ${\alpha}+{\gamma}$ phase increased with increasing nitrogen gas content. The ${\gamma}$ single phase appeared at the surface above $80%N_2$ gas, while the surface ${\alpha}$ single phase was shown below $20%N_2$ gas. When heat treating the specimen in nitrogen gas at $1050^{\circ}C$, the hardness of austenite phases increased above Hv 40 at the surface layer compared to the hardness of the core parts, while decrement of denitriding effect caused to the hardness nearly unchanged between surface and the core parts after heat treating in vacuum atmosphere. The surface ${\gamma}$ single phase specimen showed superior corrosion resistance than the surface ${\alpha}$ single phase specimen. The surface ${\alpha}$ phase existed in the ${\alpha}+{\gamma}$ microstructure showed higher corrosion resistance after heat treating in the nitrogen gas atmosphere than the ${\alpha}$ phase heat treated in the argon gas and vacuum atmosphere.

The secondary electron emission coefficient y of MgO single crystal according to the gas mix-ture ratio of Xe, $N_2$ to Ne have been investigated by $\gamma$-focused ion beam system. It is found that the MgO single crystals of (111) crystallinity has the highest $\gamma$ for operating Ne(Xe) ions ranging from 50eV to 200eV throughout this experiment. And it is found that the $\gamma$ for gas mixtures are much smaller than pure Ne ions.

We explain the results of Yu et al. (2015b) of the novel sharpness angle measurement to a large number of spectra obtained from the Fermi gamma-ray burst monitor. The sharpness angle is compared to the values obtained from various representative emission models: blackbody, single-electron synchrotron, synchrotron emission from a Maxwellian or power-law electron distribution. It is found that more than 91% of the high temporally and spectrally resolved spectra are inconsistent with any kind of optically thin synchrotron emission model alone. It is also found that the limiting case, a single temperature Maxwellian synchrotron function, can only contribute up to 58⁺²³₋₁₈% of the peak flux. These results show that even the sharpest but non-realistic case, the single-electron synchrotron function, cannot explain a large fraction of the observed spectra. Since any combination of physically possible synchrotron spectra added together will always further broaden the spectrum, emission mechanisms other than optically thin synchrotron radiation are likely required in a full explanation of the spectral peaks or breaks of the GRB prompt emission phase.

This study was undertaken to observe the effects of $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}-irradiation$ on the cell of spermatogenic epithelium in the testis of the chicken. 16-week-old chicken were provided as an experimental group and compared with control group. The experimental group was divided into a single irradiation (800, 1000, 1200 rads) and into three partial irradiation group (800/3, 1000/3, 1200/3 rads). The morphological changes of epithelial cell of the testis were observed by means of hematoxyline and eosin stain. Microstructure of spermatocyte and sperm was observed by means of semithin section of electron microscopic specimen. The results obstained are summerized as follows. 1. Spermatogonia and sertoli cells were found to be isolated from the basal membrane of seminiferous tubules as dose of $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}-irradiation$ was increased. 2. Spermatocytes of pachytene stage were seperated from the cytotplasmic process of sertoil cell in case of 1000 rads of $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}-irradiation$. 3. Normal arrangement of the cell of spermatogenic epithelium was found in control group and only the partial irradiation group of 800 rads. Vaculation in the seminiferous was pronounced in case of a single irradiation group of 800 rads, but the irradiation group of 1000 rads and 1200 rads were found to be damaged severely in both a single and a partial dose.

AC PDP에서 유전체 보호막으로 사용되는 MgO 박막은 높은 이차전자방출계수($\gamma$)로 인해 방전전압을 낮춰주는 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 이러한 MgO 보호막의 이차전자방출계수를 증가시키기 위해 MgO 의 Energy Band Structure 규명이 중요한 연구 주제가 되고 있다. MgO의 이차전자방출계수($\gamma$)는 Auger 중화 이론에 의해 방출 메커니즘이 설명이 되고, 그 원리는 다음과 같다. 고유의 이온화 에너지를 가진 이온이 MgO 표면에 입사 되면, Tunneling Effect에 의해 전자와 이온 사이에 중화가 일어나고, 중화가 되고 남은 에너지가 MgO Valance Band 내의 전자에게 전달되면 이때 남은 에너지(${\Delta}E$)가 MgO의 일함수(Work function) 보다 크게 되면 이차전자로 방출된다. 본 실험 에서는 $\gamma$-FIB System을 이용하여 결정 방향이 (100), (110), (111)을 갖는 Single Crystal MgO에 이온화 에너지가 24.58eV인 He Ion source를 주사 하였을 때 Auger self-convolution을 통해 이차전자의 운동 에너지 분포를 구하고, 이를 통해 MgO 내의 Energy Band Structure를 실험적으로 측정하였다. 이를 통해 MgO Single Crystal의 일함수 및 Defect Level의 분포를 확인하였다.

The synergistic activation mediator (SAM) system can robustly activate endogenous gene expression by a single-guide RNA. This transcriptional modulation has been shown to enhance gene promoter activity and leads to epigenetic changes. Human $interferon-{\gamma}$ is a common natural glycoprotein involved in antiviral effects and inhibition of cancer cell growth. Large quantities of high-purity $interferon-{\gamma}$ are important for medical research and clinical therapy. To investigate the possibility of employing the SAM system to enhance endogenous human $interferon-{\gamma}$ with normal function in innate immunity, we designed 10 single-guide RNAs that target 200 bp upstream of the transcription start sites of the $interferon-{\gamma}$ genome, which could significantly activate the $interferon-{\gamma}$ promoter reporter. We confirmed that the system can effectively and highly activate $interferon-{\gamma}$ expression in several humanized cell lines. Moreover, we found that the $interferon-{\gamma}$ induced by the SAM system could inhibit tumorigenesis. Taken together, our results reveal that the SAM system can modulate epigenetic traits of non-immune cells through activating $interferon-{\gamma}$ expression and triggering JAK-STAT signaling pathways. Thus, this strategy could offer a novel approach to inhibit tumorigenesis without using exogenous $interferon-{\gamma}$.

n형 Ge 결정체를 보상하기 위해 상온에서 $^{60}$Co 감마선으로 647 Mrad 조사하였다. 감마선으로 조사된 Ge 결정체로 Ge(${\gamma}$) 검출기를 제작하였다. Ge(${\gamma}$) 검출기의 검출기 특성은 얇은 Ge(Li) 검출기나 고순도 Ge 검출기와 비슷하였다. Ge(${\gamma}$) 검출기의 온도에 대한 안정도는 상온에서의 저장이 가능함을 보여 주었다.

1. 돌연변이처리후 실내에서 처리된 종자의 발아율, 제 1 엽 및 뿌리의 생장율을 보면 gamma ray나 화학제 처리된 Dema M$_1$, 유묘의 경우 생존율이 l~49%정도 감소하였고 Grosso의 경우는 그 감소의 폭이 Dema보다 적어 두 품종간의 돌연변이제에 대한반응의 차가 컸으며 같은 처리농도의 화학돌연변이제를 처리할 경우 두번에 나누어 중간의 휴지기를 두고 처리하는 것이 한 번에 처리하는 것보다 식물체의 생장 저해정도가 덜하였다. 2. 포장 M$_1$식물체의 간장의 감소율을 보면 화학약제의 경우 8.5~38.5%의 범위로 간장이 줄어들었으며 특히 1.5 mM의 MNH 처리시는 두 품종 모두 파종된 식물체가 고사하였고 0.75~l.0mM의 MNH처리시 15~38%심하였다. 그러나 이중처리할 때는 1.0~l.5mM이상의 고농도로 처리하여도 간장의 생장 감소율은 단일처리보다 상대적으로 덜 하였으며 이는 두 품종 모두 비슷한 경향이었다. 3. Dema에서는 gamma ray 180Gy처리시 간장의 감소가 28% 정도로 가장 심하였고 Grosso에서는 150Gy에서 13%로 가장 심한 경향이었다. 4. M$_2$식물체의 엽록소 돌연변이 발생율을 보면 화학약제나 방사선 처리 모두 처리강도가 높을수록 albino, xantha등의 엽록소 돌연변이체가 많이 나타났으며 약제의 이중 처리시 엽록소 돌연변이의 출현률이 다른 처리보다 높았다.
