  • Early osteological development of the skull, vertebral column, and fins, and squamation in the spotted sea bass, Lateolabrax maculates, were studied under extensive larval rearing conditions. The first ossification during cephalic skeleton development began with the premaxillary, dentary, and parasphenoid at 6.4 mm Total length (Notochord length 6.1 mm) and was completed by 25.2 mm TL (Standard length 20.3 mm). Ossification of the cartilaginous caudal complex started simultaneously in the urostyle and two preural centra at 12.2 mm TL (10.4 mm) and it was completely ossified by 32.0 mm TL (26.4 mm). The principal caudal fin rays, with a count of 9/8, began to ossify at 11.6 mm TL (10.2 mm) and the procurrent caudal fin rays, with counts of 4 (upper) and 3 (lower), started to ossify by 12.6 mm TL (10.9 mm). Ossification of these parts was completed by 21.4 mm TL (17.5 mm). Ossification of the vertebral column was first observed in the first to fourth centra at 8.3 mm TL (7.5 mm) and was fully completed by 21.7-35.0 mm TL (17.8-29.3 mm). The pectoral girdle started to ossify by 5.6 mm TL (5.4 mm) and was completed by 26.8 mm TL (21.8 mm). Eight pectoral fin rays were ossified at 11.6 mm TL (10.2 mm) and 16-18 rays were fully ossified by 13.8 mm TL (12.0 mm). Also, the dorsal, anal, and pelvic fin rays started to ossify at 12.2 mm TL (10.4 mm) and were completed by 12.8 mm TL (11.2 mm), 23.8 mm TL (19.4 mm), and 13.8 mm TL (12.0 mm), respectively. Ossification of the anal and dorsal pterygiophores initially occurred by 12.6 mm TL (10.9 mm) and 14.3 mm TL (12.2 mm), and was completed by 21.4 mm TL (17.5 mm) and 19.3 mm TL (15.9 mm), respectively. Squamation started at three centers of differentiation: the middle region of the trunk, the anterior of the caudal peduncle, and on the caudal peduncle at 23.8 mm TL (19.4 mm). The body was covered with scales, except the snout, at 57.2-60.2 mm TL (SL 47.1-49.2 mm).

  • Monochromatic x-ray CT has several advantages over conventional CT, which utilizes bremsstrahlung white x-rays from an x-ray tube. There are several methods to produce such monochromatic x-rays. The most popular one is crystal diffraction monochromatization, which has been commonly used because of the fact that the energy spread is very narrow and the energy can be changed continuously. The alternative method is the use of fluorescent x-ray, which has several advantages such as large beam size and fast energy change. We have developed a parallel-beam and a fan-beam monochromatic x-ray CT, and compared some characteristics such as accuracy of CT numbers between those systems. The fan beam monochromatic x-rays were generated by irradiating target materials by incident white x-rays from a bending magnet beam line NE5 in 6.5 GeV Accumulation Ring at Tukuba. The parallel beam monochromatic x-rays were generated by using a silicon double crystal monochromator at the bending magnet beam line BL-20BM in Spring-8. A Cadmium telluride (CdTe) 256 channel array detector with 512mm sensitive width capable of operating at room temperature was used in the photon counting mode. A cylindrical phantom containing eight concentrations of gadolinium was used for the fan beam monochromatic x-ray CT system, while a phantom containing acetone, ethanol, acrylic and water was used for the parallel monochromatic x-ray CT system. The linear attenuation coefficients obtained from CT numbers of those monochromatic x-ray CT images were compared with theoretical values. They showed a good agreement within 3%. It was found that the quantitative measurement can be possible by using the fan beam monochromatic x-ray CT system as well as a parallel beam monochromatic X-ray CT system.

  • In the field of automatic door, the infrared rays and microwave sensor are much used as the important components in charge of the motor's operation control of open and close through the incoming signal of object recognition. In case of existing system that the sensor of the infrared rays and microwave are applied to the automatic door, there are many malfunctions by the infrared rays and visible rays of the sun. Because the automatic doors are usually installed outside of building in state of exposure. The environmental change by temperature difference occurs the noise of object recognition detection signal. With this problem, the hardware fault that the detection sensor is unable to follow the object moving rapidly within detection area makes the sensing blind spot. This fault should be improved as soon as possible. Because It influences safety of passengers who use the automatic doors. This paper conducted an experiment to improve the detection area by installing extra ultrasonic sensor besides existing detection sensor. So, this paper realize the computing circuit and detection algorithm which can correctly and rapidly process the access route of objects moving fast and the location area of fixed obstacles by applying detection and advantages of ultrasonic signal to the automatic doors. With this, It is proved that the automatic door applying ultrasonic sensor is improved detection area of blind spot sensing through field test and improvement plan is proposed.

  • Observation of morphological changes during larval and juvenile stages of the halfbeak fish, Hyporhampus sajori (Temminck et Schlegel), was made based on samples of fertilized eggs collected on the shores of Youngil Bay, Phohang-shi, Korea, on May 27, 1991, and incubated in the laboratory. During the incubation period, water temperature fluctuated between $17.6^{\circ}C$ and $23.2^{\circ}C$. The newly hatched larvae were elongated and 7.0~8.50 mm in total length (TL) with 40~42+17~18 = 59~60 myotomes. Numerous melanophores were on the head, mid-dorsal part of the body, intestine, and the tail part of the notochord. Three days after hatching the larvae had attained 8.60~10.90 m in TL, had completely absorbed the yolk, and the caudal notochord was flexed $45^{\circ}$ upward. At this time, it was attained postlarvae stage. Thirty-seven days after hatching the postlarvae were 32.37~44.95 mm in TL and had reached the juvenile stage. All fins were formed with a complete set of fin rays with the following counts: dorsal fin rays 16~17; pectoral f in rays 6; ventral fin rays 12~14; caudal fin rays 11~12+11~12 = 22~24.

  • Morphological changes of early larval stages of Lophius litulon (Jordan) are described based on 861 individuals collected at the intertidal zone at Haeundae, Busan, on the 20th of June, 1976. Particular emphasis is paid on the development of dorsal spinous rays, ventral fin rays, chromatophore patterns, alimentary canal, gills, branchiostegal rays and teeth. The premordial spinous fin ray of the first dorsal fin appears at the newly hatched larva of around 2.70mm in total length, the second spinous ray at around 5.82mm, and the third spinous ray at around 6.45 nm. Premordial fin rays which develope as a semicircle to cudgel form of the ventral fin appear posterior to the pectoral fin at the larva of around 2.70mm in total length. When the larvae grow up to 6.35mm in total length, the length of the ventral fin is more or less half of the total length of the body. In the early stages$(2.70\~3.75mm)$ melanophores are scattered irregularly on the tail . In the later stages(4.25mm) melanophores are aggregated to form three black spots on medio-lateral part of the tail. The newly hatched larvae have the premordial alimentary canal with mouth and intestine. With decreasing yolk mass the intestine appears more distinctly with curvature, and mouth seems to open. Gills appear at the larvae of 6.35mm in total length; branchiostegal rays appear at the larvae of 6.45mm. Teeth appear at the larvae of 6.25mm.

  • The conventional model did not take momentum conservation into consideration when the electron absorbs and emits the photons. II-ray provides momentum conservations on any directions of the entering photons, and also the electrons have radial momentum conservations and fully elastic bouncing between two atoms, in the new atom model. Conventional atom model must be criticized on the following four points. (1) Natural motions between positive and negative entities are not circular motions but linear going and returning ones, for examples sexual motion, tidal motion, day and night etc. Because the radius of hydrogen atom's electron orbit is the order of 10$^{-11}$ m and the radia of the nucleons in the nucleus are the order of 10$^{-14}$ m and then the converging $\pi$-gamma rays to the nucleus have so great circular momentum, the electron can not have a circular motion. We can say without doubt that any elementary mass particle can have only linear motion, because of the $\pi$-rays'hindrances, nearthenucleus. (2) Potential energy generation was neglected when electron changes its orbit from outer one to inner one. The h v is the kinetic energy of the photo-electron. The total energy difference between orbits comprises kinetic and potential energies. (3) The structure of the space must be taken into consideration because the properties of the electron do not change during the transition from outer orbit to inner one even though it produces photon. (4) Total energy conservation law applies to the energy flow between mind and matter because we daily experiences a interconnection between mind and body. Conventional Concept of Electric Field must be extended in the case of the direct and alternating current. Conventional concept is based on coulomb's force while the electric potential in the direct and alternating current is from Gibb's free energy. And also conventional concept has not any consciousness with human being but the latters has a conscious sensibility. The cell emf is from the kinetic energy of the open $\pi$-rays flow through the conducting wire. The electric potential in alternating current is from that the trans-orbital moving of the induced change of magnetic field in the wire produces flows of open $\pi$-rays, which push the rotating electrons on the orbital and then make the current flow. Human consciousness can induce a resonance with the sensibility of the open $\pi$-rays in the electric measuring equipment. Specially treated acupunctures with Nasucon is for sending an acupunctural effect from one place to another via space by someone's will power.

  • This study was to investigate the effect of ultraviolet rays, soaking, boiling and baking to ergocalciferol ($Vit.D_2$) and riboflavin($Vit.B_2$) contents of mushrooms, Lentinus edodes, Pleurotus ostreatus and Agaricus bisporus. The results were as follow: 1. Mushrooms were exposed to ultraviolet rays Lentinus edodes : $10J/cm^2$, Pleurotus ostratus : $2J/cm^2$ and Agaricus bisporus : $2J/cm^2$. 2. Before exposing to ultraviolet rays, the ergocalciferol contents of mushrooms were all $0{\mu}g/g$ dry base, but after exposing to it , those of Lentinus edodes, Pleurotus ostreatus and Agaricus bisporus were $222.50{\pm}5.30{\mu}g/g$ dry base, $150.90{\pm}6.60{\mu}g/g$ dry base and $23.98{\pm}1.20{\mu}g/g$ dry base, respectively 3. Before and after exposing to ultraviolet rays, the riboflavin contents of Lentinus edoes, Pleurotus ostreatus and Agaricus bisporus were $18.22{\pm}0.71{\mu}g/g$ dry base and $11.72{\pm}0.50{\mu}g/g$ dry base, $4.57{\pm}0.20{\mu}g/g$ dery base and $3.26{\pm}0.15{\mu}g/g$ dry base, and $37.42{\pm}1.20{\mu}g/g$ dry base and $27.33{\pm}2.10{\mu}g/g$ dry base, respectively. 4. The ergocalciferol contents of mushrooms according to boiling time were not significantly different but the riboflavin contents of them were decreased according to the increase of boiling time. 5. The ergocalciferol and riboflavin contents of mushrooms were decreased according to the increase of NaCl concentration and baking temperature. 6. The ergocalciferol content of Lentinus edodes after a short time soaking at $80^{\circ}C$ was higher than a long time soaking at $20^{\circ}C,\;40^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$.

  • The new spectrometer for X-ray Induced Electron Emission Spectroscopy (XIEES) .has been recently developed in KRISS in collaboration with PTI (Russia). The spectrometer allows to perform research using the XAFS, SXAFS, XANES techniques (D.C.Koningsberger and R.Prins, 1988) as well as the number of techniques from XIEES field(L.A.Bakaleinikov et all, 1992). The experiments may be carried out with registration of transmitted through the sample x-rays (to investigate bulk samples) or/and total electron yield (TEY) from the sample surface that gives the high (down to several atomic mono-layers in soft x-ray region) near surface sensitivity. The combination of these methods together give the possibility to obtain a quantitative information on elemental composition, chemical state, atomic structure for powder samples and solids, including non-crystalline materials (the long range order is not required). The optical design of spectrometer is made according to Johannesson true focusing schematics and presented on the Fig.1. Five stepping motors are used to maintain the focusing condition during the photon energy scan (crystal angle, crystal position along rail, sample goniometer rail angle, sample goniometer position along rail and sample goniometer angle relatively of rail). All movements can be done independently and simultaneously that speeds up the setting of photon energy and allows the using of crystals with different Rowland radil. At present six curved crystals with different d-values and one flat synthetic multilayer are installed on revolver-type monochromator. This arrangement allows the wide range of x-rays from 100 eV up to 25 keV to be obtained. Another 4 stepping motors set exit slit width, sample angle, channeltron position and x-ray detector position. The differential pumping allows to unite vacuum chambers of spectrometer and x-ray generator avoiding the absorption of soft x-rays on Be foil of a window and in atmosphere. Another feature of vacuum system is separation of walls of vacuum chamber (which are deformed by the atmospheric pressure) from optical elements of spectrometer. This warrantees that the optical elements are precisely positioned. The detecting system of the spectrometer consists of two proportional counters, one scintillating detector and one channeltron detector. First proportional counter can be used as I/sub 0/-detector in transmission mode or by measuring the fluorescence from exit slit edge. The last installation can be used to measure the reference data (that is necessary in XANES measurements), in this case the reference sample is installed on slit knife edge. The second proportional counter measures the intensity of x-rays transmitted through the sample. The scintillating detector is used in the same way but on the air for the hard x-rays and for alignment purposes. Total electron yield from the sample is measured by channeltron. The spectrometer is fully controlled by special software that gives the high flexibility and reliability in carrying out of the experiments. Fig.2 and fig.3 present the typical XAFS spectra measured with spectrometer.

  • Morphological changes of early post-larval and young stages of Chasmichthys dolichognathus HILGEnDORF (Family Gobiidae) have been studied based on the samples of 953 individuals collected in June 1968, July 1969 and July 1971. Particular emphasis was paid on the development of fin rays, chromatophore patterns and ventral fins. The primordial fin rays of the first dorsal fin appear in the post-larvae of around 8.0 mm in total length, and dorsal fin fully develops in the larvae of around 9.2 mm. In the early young stages of 17.0 mm in total length fin rays have completely developed. According to chromatophore patterns the larvae are grouped into three successive groups. The larvae at the early stages of 6.3-14.2 mm have melanophores on the whole dorsal surface, the posterior ventro-lateral part of the tail and the basal part of the caudal fin. In the later larval stages of 17.0-24.4 mm a group of melanophores are added on medio-lateral part of the tail. These melanophores extend anteriorly and eventually cover the medio-lateral part of the whole body. In the early young stages of 97.2-34.8 mm the chromatophores cover the whole body surface in cloudy and H-shaped patterns. The chromatophore patterns of this stage are distinctive as generic characters of the fish. Fin membranes of the ventral fin appear in the post-larval stage (ca. 7.4 mm), and the primordial fin rays develop in the late post-larval stages (ca. 14.2 mm). The fin rays develop into a complete sucker in the young fish stage of around 30.0 mm in total length.

  • To build up data for mutation breeding of lily, sensitivity to irradiation of bulb, seed and pollen was investigated. The bulbs of seven cultivars including 'New Wave' were very sensitive to gamma rays. Non-irradiated bulbs produced plants with bloom as normal. However, irradiated bulbs showed retarded growth and did not flower. Bulbs of 'New Wave' and 'Tiny Dino' irradiated with 125Gy gamma rays survived, but their growth rate dropped considerably. Part or whole leaves of the other cultivars except 'New Wave' and 'Tiny Dino' withered. Moisture content of individual scale was 72~78% depending on cultivar. Bulblet formation from untreated scales was 100%. Among all irradiated scales only 'Siberia' scales showed 8.5% bulblet formation when irradiated with 50Gy gamma rays. Pollen germination as affected by gamma ray irradiation had no consistent tendency. When dosage of $F_1$ 'Augusta' seeds reached 300Gy, their survival ratio was drastically decreased. Bulblet formation in vitro was observed only in non-irradiated seeds. Lethal dose ($LD_{50}$) of seed was less than 100Gy. Height and width of $F_1$ 'Augusta' bulblets in vitro irradiated with gamma rays decreased as dosage increased regardless of the culture method. The percentage shoot formation was 100% in non-irradiated bulblets and 15~60% in irradiated ones.
