In this present study, the effects of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), Full Width Half Maximum (FWHM), Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD), $O_3$ Vertical Column Density ($O_3$ VCD), and Solar Zenith Angle (SZA) on the accuracy of sulfur dioxide Vertical Column Density ($SO_2$ VCD) retrieval have been quantified using the Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) method with the ground-based direct-sun synthetic radiances. The synthetic radiances produced based on the Beer-Lambert-Bouguer law without consideration of the diffuse effect. In the SNR condition of 650 (1300) with FWHM = 0.6 nm, AOD = 0.2, $O_3$ VCD = 300 DU, and $SZA=30^{\circ}$, the Absolute Percentage Difference (APD) between the true $SO_2$ VCD values and those retrieved ranges from 80% (28%) to 16% (5%) for the $SO_2$ VCD of $8.1{\times}10^{15}$ and $2.7{\times}10^{16}molecules\;cm^{-2}$, respectively. For an FWHM of 0.2 nm (1.0 nm) with the $SO_2$ VCD values equal to or greater than $2.7{\times}10^{16}molecules\;cm^{-2}$, the APD ranges from 6.4% (29%) to 6.2% (10%). Additionally, when FWHM, SZA, AOD, and $O_3$ VCD values increase, APDs tend to be large. On the other hand, SNR values increase, APDs are found to decrease. Eventually, it is revealed that the effects of FWHM and SZA on $SO_2$ VCD retrieval accuracy are larger than those of $O_3$ VCD and AOD. The SZA effects on the reduction of $SO_2$ VCD retrieval accuracy is found to be dominant over the that of FWHM for the condition of $SO_2$ VCD larger than $2.7{\times}10^{16}molecules\;cm^{-2}$.

Purpose - This study conducted empirical research on non-financial corporations listed on the stock exchange from 2001 to 2010, focusing on the effects of corporate governance on real earnings management of corporations. In particular, this study examined primarily the impact of the largest shareholder who could use earnings management to pursue his own self-interest, and foreign investors who played a checking role against the largest shareholders. The study also reviewed the relationship between corporate governance and earnings management while also considering corporate growth. Research design, data, and methodology - As for the measurements of real earnings management, abnormal operating cash flow and abnormal production cost were utilized. As for the independent variables, share ratio of the largest shareholder and affiliate person (M) and share ratio of foreign investors (FT) were leveraged. This study excluded those organizations that had changed their fiscal years, those that had not submitted an audit report, corporations under supervision, delisted corporations, corporations that had changed their business type, and so on, from the non-financial corporations out of the publicly traded corporations whose fiscal year ended in December from 2001 to 2010 in addition, KIS values were utilized for the corporate financial data in the study. To verify whether management structure and growth had an impact on real earnings management of a corporation through empirical analysis, a multiple regression analysis model was applied. Result - First, as a result of the analysis, the share ratio (M) of the largest shareholder and affiliate person was found to have a significant positive correlation with abnormal cash flow from operations(ACF) and abnormal production cost (APD). When controlling the growth, the share ratio (M) of the largest shareholder and affiliate person was found to have an insignificant correlation with abnormal cash flow from operations(ACF) but a significant correlation with abnormal production cost (APD). Second, foreign ownership (FT) was found to have a significant positive correlation with abnormal cash flow from operations(ACF) and abnormal production cost (APD) at the confidence level of 1 percent when not including the growth dummy. When controlling the growth, foreign ownership (FT) was found to have a significant negative correlation with abnormal cash flow from operations (ACF) and with abnormal production cost (APD). Conclusion - The results imply that the largest shareholder is closely related to earnings management through real activities regardless of corporate growth. It is also possible to determine from these results that foreign investors are related to earnings management through real activities when not considering corporate growth, but that they would reduce earnings management in the case of considering the growth. Thus, this study verified along with the existing studies that foreign investors were conducting the control function on controlling shareholders.

Fluoxetine and tianeptine are commonly used as antidepressants (AD), and haloperidol and risperidone are widely used as antipsychotic drugs (APD), and it modulates various ion channels. TREK2 channel subfamily is very similar to physiological properties of TREK1 channel which can play important roles in the pathophysiology of mental disorders such as depression and schizophrenia, therefore, the pharmacological effect of psychiatric and depression drug on TREK2 channel may be similar to those of TREK1. Using the excised inside-out patch-clamp technique, we have examined the effects of APD and AD on cloned TREK2 channel expressed CHO cells. Fluoxetine (selective serotonin release inhibitor, SSRI) inhibited the TREK2 channel in a concentration-dependent manner ($IC_{50}$ $13{\mu}M$), whereas selective serotonin reuptake enhancer (SSRE) tianeptine increased without reducing the TREK2 channel activity. Haloperidol also inhibited the TREK2 channel in a concentration-dependent manner ($IC_{50}$ $44{\mu}M$), whereas even higher concentration ($100{\mu}M$) of risperidone did not completely inhibit on the activity. This study showed that TREK2 channel was preferentially blocked by fluoxetine rather than tianeptine, and inhibited by haloperidol rather than risperidone, suggesting differential effect of TREK2 channels by APD and AD may contribute to some mechanism of adverse side effects.

The present study was undertaken in order to investigate effect of ethanol extract of Rehmanniae radix(RREE) on electrophysiology of sinus node and papillary muscle. Rehmanniae radix is a herbal medicine which has been known to have diuretic, antipyretic, hemopoietic and cardiotonic effects. Action potentials were recorded by means of glass capillary microelectrode(technique) in rabbit sinoatrial nodal cells and papillary muscle cells which were superperfused with either tyrode solution or tyrode solutions containing different amount of RREE. The results obtained were as follows ; 1) In both central and peripheral nodal cells maximum diastolic potential (MDP) and amplitude of action potential (APA) were not affected by RREE. 2) Action potential duration as expressed $APD_{60}$(time to 60% repolarization) of central and peripheral pacemaker cells were significantly prolonged following perfusion with tyrode solution containing 0.1% RREE. 3) The rates of spontaneous firing from central pecemaker cell were decreased by RREE at concentration of 0.05% and 0. 1% while spontaneous rhythm of perinodal cell was decreased by 0.1% RREE. 4) The action potential duration of papillary muscle as expressed $APD_{60}$ were prolonged by 0.1% RREE.

본고에서는 차세대 보안통신 기술로 주목 받고 있는 양자암호시스템의 핵심 모듈인 단일광자 검출기의 최신 연구동향과 KIST 연구개발 내용에 대해 기술한다. 현재 상용화 수준으로까지 발전한 유선 양자암호 시스템에서는 성능, 소형화, 가격 등의 장점으로 인해 주로 InGaAs/InP avalanche photo diode (APD)를 이용한 단일광자검출기가 사용되고 있다. 유선 양자암호에서 사용하는 1550nm 통신 파장대의 단일광자가 갖는 에너지는 0.8 eV로 매우 미약한 수준이기 때문에 신호 검출을 위해 APD소자를 내부 증폭 이득이 무한대인 가이거모드(Geiger mode)에서 동작시킨다. 매우 높은 증폭비는 신호 검출뿐만 아니라 노이즈에도 동일하게 영향을 미치기 때문에 주변환경 노이즈에 의한 검출기 오동작 문제가 심각하게 발생한다. 따라서 단일광자검출기 구현에서 가장 중요한 기술은 소자 및 검출기 모듈에서 발생하는 노이즈의 영향을 최소화 시켜주는 것이다. 전세계적으로 검출기의 대표적인 노이즈인 after pulse를 저감 시키기 위한 연구가 매우 활발히 이루어지고 있는데 대표적으로 self-differencing, auxiliary signal, integrating, double balanced 등의 방법이 제시되고 있다. 본고에서는 각각의 최신 기술들에 대한 비교 분석 및 이를 바탕으로 현재 KIST에서 진행하고 있는 양자암호시스템을 위한 단일광자검출기 기술 개발에 대해 서술한다.

In this paper, we proposed the method of the interference evaluation between the microwave oven noise and the wireless LAN(Local Area Network) by using the GTEM cell. We used microwave oven noise in time to assess the interference unintentional noise effects on wireless LAN and realized by combining an AM(Amplitude Modulation) modulator and a FM(frequency Modulation) modulator. Also the GTEM cell can be used to guarantee the reliability by the evaluations of the frequency and time responses. As measurement results for the APD(Amplitude Probability Distribution) of the interfering noise we analyzed the effect of microwave oven noise to the throughput of wireless LAN.
