In case of high contents of rare earths in the LiCl-KCl salt, it is not easy to recover U and TRU metals as a usable resource form from LiCl-KCl eutectic salts generated from the pyroprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. In this study, a conversion of $UCl_3$ into an oxide form using $K_2CO_3$ and an electrodeposition of $NdCl_3$ into a metal form in $LiCl-KCl-UCl_3-NdCl_3$ system were conducted to resolve the problem. Before conducting the conversion, experimental conditions for the conversion were determined by performing a thermodynamic equilibrium calculation. In this study, almost all of $UCl_3$ disappeared in the LiCl-KCl salt when the injection of $K_2CO_3$ reached theoretical equivalent for the conversion, and then $NdCl_3$ was effectively electrodeposited as a metal form using liquid zinc cathode. After that, the LiCl-KCl salt became transparent, and uranium oxides were precipitated to the bottom of the LiCl-KCl salt. These results will be utilized in designing a process to separate U and rare earths in LiCl-KCl salt.

The neutral complexes $MCl_3(phda)(MeCN)]$ and $[MCl_3(PPh_3)_2(MeCN)]$ (M=Mo, V) were prepared by the reaction of $MCl_z$, (M=Mo; z=5, M=V; z=3) with N, P-donating ligands in acetonitrile solution. Addition of AgClO_4$ to these neutral monomeric complexes in acetone solution afforded $MCl_{3-n}L_2(MeCN)(S)_n](ClO_4)_n$ (n=1, 2 : s=solvent). Two types of asymmetrical homo- and hetero-dinuclear complexes have been synthesized. The type of chloride bridged dinuclear complex is $[(MeCN)(phda)ClM({\mu}-Cl)_2M'Cl(PPh_3)_2(MeCN)](ClO_4)_2.$ And the type of pyrazine bridged complex is $[(MeCN)(phda)Cl_2M({\mu}-pyz)M'Cl_2(PPh_3)_2(MeCN)](ClO_4)_2.$ These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, $^1H,\;^13C$ NMR, IR, Far-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy.

The neutral compounds [$MCl_3L_2$(MeCN)] (M = Mo, V: L = $PPh_3$, 1/2 phda) have been prepared from the reaction of starting material $MCl_z$ (M = Mo; z = 5, M = V; z = 3) with N,P-donating ligands in acetonitrile solution. Addition of $AgClO_4$ to these neutral monomeric compounds in acetone solution were produced [$MCl_3-_nL_2(MeCN)(S)_n$]$(ClO_4)_n$ (n = 1, 2 : s = solvent). Finally treatment of bivalent cationic compound and neutral compound was formed chloride bridged dinuclear complex $[(MeCN)(L)_2ClM({\mu}-Cl)_2M'Cl(L)_2(MeCN)](ClO_4)_2$ and treatment of univalent cationic compound with half equivalent pyrazine to pyrazine bridged complex $[(MeCN)(L)_2Cl_2M({\mu}-pyz)M'Cl_2(L)_2(MeCN)](ClO_4)_2$. These complexes are characterized by elemental analysis, $^1H$, $^{13}C$ NMR, IR, Far-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy.

This study was conducted to investigate the effece of NaCl concentrations on the growth, photosynthetic rate and mineral uptake of tomato, red pepper, and egg Plant in Pot culture. The growth such as plant height, plant fresh and dry weight, root fresh and dry weight and dried matter rate was decreased as NaCl concentrations were increased. Specially, the growth inhibition of tomato and egg plant was shown at over 40 mM NaCl, and that of red pepper at 20 mM NaCl. Yield of tomato and egg Plant was reduced at over 20 U NaCl, that of red pepper at over 10 mM NaCl. Yield reduction was affected by the number of fruit at low concentration and by mean weight and number of fruit at high concentration. Photosynthetic rate, water potential and stomatal conductance were decreased as NaCl concentrations were increased. The higher the concentration of NaCl, the lower the mineral uptake such as T-N, P, K, Ca and Mg, however, the higher the content of Na and Cl.

The salt stress at seedling stage of winter barley was examined in different concentrations of NaCl containing 1/2 Hoagland solution. Fresh weight of seedling at 30 days after seeding was highest at 25mM of NaCl concentration containing 1/2 Hoagland solution but if the NaCl concentration was more than 50mM it began to decrease seriously. Water content in plant was decreased according to increase of NaCl concentration in 1/2 Hoagland solution, so physiological mechanism of NaCl in barley was different from saline plant. Stoma number per cm$^2$ of first leaf was higher than that of control in case of stressed by NaCl but in that case the leaf length was decreased so the number of stoma per first leaf was slightly decreased. Chloroplast shape was not changed by 75mM of high NaCl contained 1/2 Hoagland solution but cell division at root growing point was inhibited by 75mM of NaCl. As the result of salt stress mitochondria was ruined in structure and irregular solid was found to be transfered from the cytoplasm to the cell wall in root growing point.

The single crystal of $KMgCl_3$ was grown in Ar atmosphere by Czochralski method for the first time. For the stoichiometric composition, $K_2MgCl_4$ crystal was obtained, and the nonstoichiometric method was used for the $KMgCl_3$ crystal growth. The phase transition sequences of $KMgCl_3$ were investigated by the DTA, DSC and the ferroelastic properties by using the high temperature polarizing microscope and the thermomechanical system. The temperature dependences of the ferroelastic domains and the spontaneous strain obtained from the stress-strain hysteresis loops were analyzed.

The appearance and function of corpora lutea(CL) with a central cavity in the ovaries of Korean Native Cattle (KNC) were investigated endocrinologically and histochemically. The CL were enucleated from KNC ovaries within 2~3 hrs local slaughter house and classified with central cavity CL or not. Enzymatically dispersed luteal cell (1$\times$106 live cell/ml of Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Media) with or without cavity of CL cultured at 37$^{\circ}C$ in a humidified incubation (5% CO2 : 95% air) for 72hr. A central cavity in the CL of KNC was found in 58.8% of CL-1, 34.9% of CL 2, 39.1% of CL-3, and 11.1% of CL-4, respectively. There were no significant difference between protein content of CL with and without a central cavity. Mean progesterone secretion after 36h of in vitro luteal cell culture were significantly (p<0.05) higher in CL with central cavity than without cavity. However, the luteal cavitic wall was composed of the connective tissue band of the reticular and collagen fibers and then these connective tissue band extended into the CL with cavity. These results suggest that the central cavity of CL may be caused infertility in KNC.

The solubility and the physicochemical property (refractive index) in the NaCl-$CaCl_2$-$H_2O$ and KCl-$CaCl_2$-$H_2O$ systems were determined at $50^{\circ}C$ and the phase diagrams and the diagrams of physicochemical property vs composition were plotted. One invariant point, two univariant curves, and two crystallization zones, corresponding to sodium Chloride (or potassium chloride), dihydrate ($CaCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O$) showed up in the phase diagrams of the ternary systems. The mixing parameters ${\theta}_{M,Ca}$ and ${\Psi}_{M,Ca,Cl}$ (M = Na or K) and equilibrium constant $K_{sp}$ were evaluated in NaCl-$CaCl_2-H_2O$ and KCl-$CaCl_2-H_2O$ systems by least-squares optimization procedure, in which the single-salt Pitzer parameters of NaCl, KCl and $CaCl_2$ ${\beta}^{(0)}$, ${\beta}^{(1)}$, ${\beta}^{(2)}$ and $C^{\Phi}$ were directly calculated from the literature. The results obtained were in good agreement with the experimental data.

In this paper, we are going to describe the performance characteristic of very high resolution image processing with WebCL on the web environment. In order to evaluate the variance of the execution time by WebCL, we modified the Pixastic library, one of the most representative image processing libraries written in JavaScript, by using WebCL. We achieved a speedup of up to 4.2 times and 2.8 times on average against the original one for the image of 8K Ultra HD with the WebCL-based library.

본 연구는 시멘트 경화체 중의 Cl 고정화 메카니즘을 규명하는 연구의 일환으로 시멘트의 C3A 함유량에 따른 Cl 고정화 효과를 세공용액 분석방법에 의해 조사한 것으로 C3A함유량 0.46 9.65%의 4가지 시멘트와 C3A를 함유하지 않은 초속경 시멘트 페이스트를 밀봉용기내에서 양생시켜 재령 28일에 세공용액을 추출하여 세공용액 중의 Cl 과 OH 농도를 측정, C3A함유량이 Cl 고정화에 미치는 영향을 검토한 것이다. 연구결과 세공용액 중의 Cl 농도는 NaCl 혼입량에 관계없이 시멘트 중의 C3A량이 증가함에 따라 낮아져 시멘트 경화체 내에서 Cl 의 고정화에 C3A가 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 세공용액의 Cl /OH 는 Cl 혼입량이 시멘트 중량의 0.3%인 경우 강재부동태막을 파괴하는 0.3보다 낮았으며 X선회절분석에 의해 C3A에 의한 고정화 메카니즘은 프리델씨염(Friedel's salt)의 생성에 의함을 확인하였다.
