A Very Low Pressure Reactor (VLPR) is constructed for the kinetic study of atom-molecule bimolecular elementary reactions. The basic principles and the versatility of the method are described. By using the VLPR technique the forward (k1) and the reverse (k-1) rate constants for Br atom reaction with trimethylsilane are studied; Br + $(CH_3)_3$SiH k1 ${\leftrightarrow}$ k-1 HBr + $(CH_3)_3$Si. From the kinetic data and the entropy estimation the bond dissociation energy for Si-H bond in trimethylsilane is calculated to be 90.1 kcal/mole $({\pm}1.1$ kcal/mole). The Arrhenius parameters for k1 are found to be log A = 10.6 l/mole·sec, $E_a$ = 4.4 kcal/mole respectively. For the comparison purpose analogous reaction for carbon compound ; Br + $(CH_3)_3$CH ${\rightarrow}$ HBr + $(CH_3)_3$C was also studied. The corresponding rate constant and equilibrium constant at $25^{\circ}C$ are found to be 2.67 ${\times}$ $10^6l$/mole${\cdot}$sec and 160 respectively.

YSe1.83 was synthesized by vapor transport technique and its crystal structure was determined. The structure was isostructure of LaTe2-x, which was layered structure consisting of two-atom thick layers of YSe with distorted NaCl-type structure and one-atom thick layer of Se. The substructure of YSe1.83 was tetragonal with space group of P4/nmm and a=4.011(2) and c=8.261(3) Å with final R/Rw=6.4/6.9 %. The superstructure with asuper=2a, bsuper=6b and csuper=2c was found. The measurements of electronic and magnetic properties of this compound indicate that it is an electronic insulator and diamagnet.

In the protein database search, 3D structural shape comparison for protein screening plays a important role. Protein databases have big size and have been grown rapidly. Exhaustive search methods cannot provide a satisfactory performance. As protein is composed of a set of spheres, the similarity calculation of two set of spheres is very expensive. Thus, a reasonable filtering method could be an answer for the speedup of protein screening. In this paper, we suggest a speedup method for protein screening with atom number and bounding sphere. We also show some experimental results for the validity of our method.

Mechanical alloying (MA) by high energy ball mill of Pure chromium Powders was carried out under the nitrogen gas atmosphere. Cr-N amorphous alloy powders have been produced through the solid-gas reaction subjected to MA. The atomic structure during amorphization process was observed by X-ray and neutron diffractions. An advantage of the neutron diffraction technique allows us to observe the local atomic structure surrounding a nitrogen atom. The coordination number of metal atoms around a N atom turns out to be 5.5 atoms. This implies that a nitrogen atom is located at both of centers of the tetrahedron and octahedron formed by metal atoms to stabilize an amorphous Cr-N structure. Also, we have revealed that a Cr-N amorphous alloy may produced from a mixture of pure Cr and Cr nitrides powders by solid-solid reaction during mechanical alloying.

The crystallographic characteristics of the $(Bi, La)_4$$Ti_3$$O_{12}$ thin film, which is considered as an applicable dielectrics in the ferroelectric RAM device due to a low crystallization temperature and a good fatigue property, were investigated at the atomic scale by high resolution transmission electron microscopy and the high resolution Z-contrast technique. The analysis showed that a (00c) preferred orientation and a crystallization of the film were enhanced with the diffraction intensity increase of the (006) and (008) plane as the annealing temperature increased. It indicated a change of the atomic arrangement in the (00c) plane. Stacking faults on the (00c) plane were also observed. Through the comparison of the high-resolution Z-contrast image and the $Bi_4$$Ti_3$$O_{12}$ atomic model, it was evaluated that the intensity of the Bi atom was different according to the atomic plane, and it was attributed to a substitution of La atom for Bi at the specific atom position.

It has been widely reported that carbide-free bainitic steels or super-bainite WP (SB-TRIP) steels for the automotive industry are a new family of steels offering a unique combination of high strength and ductility. Hence, it is important to exactly evaluate the volume fraction of RA and to identify the 3-D morphology of constituent phases, because it plays a crucial role in mechanical properties. Recently, as electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) equipped with focused ion beam (FIB) has been developed, 3-D EBSD technique for materials science are used to these steels. Moreover, newly developed atom probe tomography (APT) technique can provide the exact distribution and chemical concentration of alloying elements in a sub-nm scale. The APT analysis results indicate exactly the distribution and composition of alloying elements in the austenite and bainite phases of SB-TRIP steels with the atomic-scale resolution. And thus, no partitioning of aluminum and manganese atoms was showed between the austenite containing $7.73{\pm}0.39$ at% C and the bainitic ferrite associated with $0.22{\pm}0.06$ at% C in the SB-TRIP steel.

When starch is hydrolyzed either by acid or by the enzymes maltase or diastase, contained in germinating barley, a yield of 80% of maltose is obtained. Maltose is built of two molecules of ${\alpha}$-glucose, bound in the position 1:4 i.e., carbon atom 1 of one glucose molecule is bound in a glucosidic bond to carbon atom 4 of the second molecule. Until around 1960, dextrose and glucose syrups were prepared from starch exclusively by acid hydrolysis. The process was corrosive, and the dextrose yield low. It was, therefore, a great step forward when pure glucoamylase in combination with bacterial ${\alpha}$-amylase made possible a complete enzymatic hydrolysis of starch to dextrose. Today several enzymatic processes are used in the industry.

Different types magnesium hydroxide groups have been obtained using the hydrothermal precipitation technique from magnesium sulfate and calcium carbonate solution. The Mg atom coordinated around O atom of ${SO_4}^{2-}$ in another layer to form a multi-layer structure crystal. The influence of synthesis parameters on the morphological characteristics and size of magnesium hydroxide groups precipitated in aqueous were investigated such as different of additive and pH. Magnesium hydroxide groups were decomposed gradually and converted finally to MgO particles after heated in air temperature up to $1050^{\circ}C$. The particle size and it's distribution morphology, crystal phase and thermal behavior of the samples were characterized through XRD, SEM, EDS, and TG/DTA.

Many symbiotic stars exhibit features formed through Raman scattering with hydrogent atom, which can be useful in probing the mass loss and mass transfer processes. These include Raman scattered O VI 6830, 7088, Raman scattered He II 6545, 4850, 4332, and broad wings around Balmer emission lines. In this study we investigate the basic properties of broad Balmer wings formed through Raman scattering using a Monte Carlo technique. Special attention is made on the symmetry of the wings which is expected to be broken due to asymmetric scattering cross section. In this poster, we show preliminary results.
