This paper introduces the characteristics and generation of the synchrotron radiation (SR). SR has the very high spectral brilliance, broad spectral range, X-ray wavelength tunability, high degree of polarization and collimation, and pulsed time structure. Also describes the technologies to apply in the fields of geology and environmental sciences. These include X-ray tomography, XRF, EXAFS, XANES, DAC, IVP experiments. Further, nuclear power generation and nuclear waste disposal methods are mentioned relating to energy. Using these, analyses of the chemistry, crystal structure and chemical combining states of minerals and rocks can be carried out. Applications in the fields of the economic geology, paleontology and environmental sciences are open too. Informations of the Earth interior materials' behavior under high pressure-temperature can be acquired.

To investigate the migration behavior of contaminants in rocks. adsorption and diffusion experiments for Sr as a sorbing contaminant and for Cr-EDTA as a non-sorbing contaminant were carried out on granitic rocks. The Sr adsorption on separated minerals and crushed rocks tends to slightly increase with increasing pH. It also greatly decreases with the increase of ionic strength in NaCl solution. Among separated minerals, biotite and sericite have adsorbed much more amount of Sr than other rock-forming minerals, such as quartz, plagioclase, and potassic feldspar, because the specific surfaces and cation exchange capacities of phyllosilicates are generally much greater than those of the other rock-forming minerals. The intrinsic diffusion coefficients of Cr-EBTA for granitic rocks differ little from those of Sr. This indicates that they are independent of water-rock interactions. Experimental data show that the intrinsic diffusion coefficients are positively correlated with the porosities of the rocks. They are close to the theoretically predicted values, especially in pre-steady state diffusion region, with the increase of rock sample thickness.

본 연구에서는 암석폐재를 대상으로 직경이 60mm인 고화체를 얻을 수 있는 수열 hot press 장치를 개발하였고, 고형화를 위한 최적조건을 찾아내는 내용을 다루었다. 이어 고화체의 기계적 성질을 평가하였고, 고화기구와 미시적 파괴거동을 규명하기위하여 SEM관찰 및 음향방출실험을 실시하였다. 고형화를 위한 최적조건은 NaOH용액이 10wt%, 수열온도가 30$0^{\circ}C$이고, 유지시간이 1시간이었다. 또한 수열반응동안에 다양한 제 2화합물들이 생성되었으며, 이들은 고화체의 기계적 성질에 큰 영향을 미쳤다. 아울러 원석의 경우에는 AE Counts가 초기화중에서부터 나타났으나, 고화체는 초기하중에서 전혀 AE Counts가 검출되지 않았다. 이와같은 사실로부터 수열 hot press법에 의해 얻어진 고화체는 원석과는 다르게 암석 입자간의 결합이 보다 치밀하게 이루어지고 있음을 유추할 수 있다.

To see effect of marine rock powder and fungal culture supernatant, we analyzed the biodegradation rates of harmful marine dinoflagellate, Heterosigma akashiwo and Prorocentrum minimum for developing the effective control methodology of algal bloom. Relatively low removal rates were observed in the treatment of marine rock powder or buffer solution alone. However, the lysis of H. akashiwo and P. minimum was enhanced in the combined treatments of marine rock powder with fungal supernatant. The effective concentration and exposure time of fungal supernatant for the lysis of H. akashiwo and P. minimum were 5 ml/l and 30 minutes, respectively. These results suggest that the fungal supernatant may be a biocontrol agent for the control of algal blooms in seawater.

On the basis of chemical composition of granite, gneiss and their weathering products, in this paper, rare earth elements (REEs) was estimated as tracer for clarifying a geochemical variance of earth surface material during weathering process. The chemical composition of clay, clay ware and pottery also were measured for testifying usefulness of REE geochemistry in clarifying the source material of pottery. It was observed that there was no systematic variation of chemical composition among source rock, weathered rock and soil during weathering process. The chemical composition of clay, clay ware and pottery also did not show systematic variation by baking pottery. However, PAAS (Post Archean Australian Shale)-normalized REE patterns of rock-weathered rock-soil and clay-clay ware-pottery are similar regardless of weathering process or ceramic art. Our results confirm that REE geochemistry is powerful tool for clarifying the source materials of surface sediment or archaeological ceramic products.

An experimental study of iron-aluminium partitioning between synthetic garnet and synthetic epidote was carried out, as equilibrium was maintained in the exchange reaction expressed as follows : $Ca_3Fe_2Si_3O_12\+\2\Ca_2Al_2AlSi_3O_12$(0H) = $Ca_3Al_2Si_3O_12\+\Ca_2Al_2FeSi_3O_12$(0H) Temperature has a pronounced effect on the distribution of Fe and A1 between the minerals. However, the pressure effect is not so drastic as in the exchange reaction. With increasing temperature, $Fe^{+3}$ becomes redistributed from garnet into epidote, whereas A1 becomes redistributed from epidote into garnet. This is in line with the general principle of phase correspondence, as the temperature increases the more electropositive metal aluminium redistributes from epidote into garnet. The agreement between the experimental results of this study and the natural samples suggests that $K_D=X^{Ep}_{Fe}/X^{Gr}_{Fe}$ may be a useful geothermometer for metamorphic rocks containing garnet and epidote that are close to binary Fe-A1 compounds.

Trace element abundances in the igneous rocks are important data for petrogenetic interpretation. Their concentrations are generally measured using ICP-MS from the dissolved solution. The acid digestion of rock powder can be performed by conventional teflon vial or pressure bomb. In this paper, we investigated a problem that happened during acid digestion experiment using conventional teflon vial or pressure bomb of BCR2 and GSP2 USGS rock standard materials. The results show that the measured concentrations of the elements like Cr, Ni, Zn, Ta, W in the BCR2 are different from the recommended values of USGS whereas those of the elements like Rb, Sr, Zr, Hf, Ta, W in the GSP2 are different from those values. Our experiment shows that defect of specific elements like Cr, Ni may happen during the sample digestion. Our results also indicate that the Cr, Ni, W, Zr, Hf, Ta concentration obtained based on an acid digestion of geological samples need to be careful in their geochemical interpretation.

Possibile phase transitions of graphite have been examined experimentally using piston cylinder and DAC with synchrotron radiation. The graphite-forming processes in high pressure and low temperature conditions and the phase change under super high pressure were studied in the conditions of 0.7 Gpa and 270-$360^{\circ}C$ in piston cylinder and under 39.6 Gpa in DAC. In the piston cylinder experiment using LiCO3as a catalyzer, we could synthesize disordered graphites whose TGD values change progressively form 9 to 53. It was known that the temperature of graphitization in 0.7 Gpa is between 270-$300^{\circ}C$. Numerous unknown XRD peaks were observed in the super high-pressure experiment. However, it is difficult to pick up a new peak of a hexagonal diamond phase. Application of the different high pressure apparatus as well as a peculiar X-ray source and various graphite specimen would be useful for super high-pressure experiment, and more detailed works are needed to characterize the unknown phase(s) observed in this study.
