  • The molecular cloud, embedding AFGL 2591, has a "head-and-tail" structure with a total mass of ${\sim}\;1800\;M_{\odot}$, about half of the mass (${\sim}\;900\;M_{\odot}$) in the head (size ${\sim}\;1.2\;pc$ in diameter), and another half in the envelope (${\sim}\;3.5\;pc$ in the east-west direction). We found a new cloud in the direction toward north-east from AFGL 2591 (projected distance ${\sim}\;2.4\;pc$), which is probably associated with the AFGL 2591 cloud. The $^{12}CO$ spectrum clearly shows a blue-shifted high-velocity wing at around the velocity $-20\;{\sim}\;-10\;km\;s^{-1}$, but it is not clear whether this high-velocity component has a bipolar nature in our observations. The observed CN spectra also show blue-shifted wing component but the existence of the red-shifted component is not clear, either. In some CN and HCN spectra, the highvelocity components appear as a different velocity component, not a broad line-wing component. The dense cores, traced by CN and HCN, exist in the 'head' of the AFGL 2591 cloud with an elongated morphology roughly in the north-south direction with a size of about 0.5 pc. The abundance ratio between CN and HCN is found to be about 2 - 3 within the observed region, which may suggest a possibility that this core is being affected by the embedded YSOs or by possible shocks from outside.

  • In this paper, investigations on a three stage processing technique involving the co-evaporation of In-Se, Cu-Se and In-Se in this order at different deposition condition was undertaken. At first stage, we obtained good $In_{2}Se_{3}$ films by In-Se coevaporation. $In_{2}Se_{3}$ films show smooth and dense structure. And ration of In:Se was 2:3 $CulnSe_2$ thin films deposited by three stage process have shown strong adhesion on Mo coated glass substrates and good morphological properties suitable device fabrication. XWD spectra show single phase chalcopyrite $CulnSe_2$ films with strong orientation in the 112 plane. Resistivity of $CulnSe_2$ thin films was about $5{\times}10^{5}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$. Surface morphology of CdS/$CulnSe_2$/Mo films was very good because of no pin holes.

  • A nanolaminate consisting of alternate layers of aluminium oxide ($Al_2O_3$) (5 nm) and zirconium oxide ($ZrO_2$) (20 nm) was deposited at an optimized oxygen partial pressure of $3{\times}10^{-2}$ mbar by pulsed laser deposition. The nanolaminate film was analysed using high temperature X-ray diffraction (HTXRD) to study phase transition and thermal expansion behaviour. The surface morphology was investigated using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). High temperature X-ray diffraction indicated the crystallization temperature of tetragonal zirconia in the $Al_2O_3/ZrO_2$ multilayer-film was 873 K. The mean linear thermal expansion coefficient of tetragonal $ZrO_2$ was $4.7{\times}10^{-6}\;K^{-1}$ along a axis, while it was $13.68{\times}10^{-6}\;K{-1}$ along c axis in the temperature range 873-1373 K. The alumina was in amorphous nature. The FESEM studies showed the formation of uniform crystallites of zirconia with dense surface.

  • Background: B cell subset has been divided into B-1 cells and B-2 cells. B-1 cells are found most prominently in the peritoneal cavity, as well as constituting a small pro portion of splenic B cells and they are larger and less dense than B-2 cells in morphology. This study was designed to compare the differences in their proliferation and differentiation between B-1 and B-2 cell. Methods: We obtained sorted B-1 cells from peritoneal fluid and B-2 cells from spleens of mice. Secreted IgM was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Entering of S phase in response to LPS-stimuli was measured by proliferative assay. Cell cycle analysis by propidium iodide was performed. p21 expression was assessed by real time PCR. Results: Cell proliferation and cell cycle progression in B-1 and B-2 cells, which did not occur in the absence of LPS, required LPS stimulation. After LPS stimulation, B-1 and B-2 cells were shifted to Sand G2/M phases. p21 expression by resting B-1 cells was higher than that of resting B-2 cells. Conclusion: B-1 cells differ from conventional B-2 cells in proliferation, differentiation and cell cycle.

  • The effect on the pitting corrosion resistance of laser welding and surface treatment developed as a repair method of stream generator tubing material that was a major component of primary system at nuclear power plant was observed. Some heat-treated Alloy 600 tubing materials used at domestic nuclear power plants were laser-surface observed. Some heat-treated Alloy 600 tubing materials used at domestic nuclear power plants were laser-surface melted and the microstructural characteristics were examined. The pitting corrosion resistance was examined through Ep(pitting potential) and degree of pit generation by means of the electrochemical tests and the immersion tests respectively. The pit formation characteristics were investigated through microstructural changes and the pit initiation site and pit morphology. The test results showed that the pitting corrosion resistances was increased in the order of the followings; sensitized Alloy 600, solution annealed alloy600, and laser surface melted Alloy 600. Pits were initiated preferably at Ti-containing inclusions and their surroundings in all tested specimens and it is believed that higher pitting resistance of laser-surface treated Alloy 600 was caused by fine, homogeneous distribution of non-soluble inclusions, the disappearance of grain boundary, and the formation of dense, stable oxide film. The major element of corrosion products filled in the pit was Cr. On the other hand, Fe was enriched in the deposit formed on the pit.

  • $(Ba,Sr)_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles with high brightness were prepared by spray pyrolysis. The changes in the photoluminescence intensity and morphology of $(Ba,Sr)_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ were investigated by changing the posttreatment temperature and the concentration of dopant. The prepared $(Ba,Sr)_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ particles has a dense structure, but irregular shape after the posttreatment. When they were excited by the ultraviolet light of 410 nm, a broad emission band with a peak at 508 nm was observed. The photoluminescence intensity of the prepared $(Ba,Sr)_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ particles was enhanced by increasing the posttreatment temperature up to 1300 $^{\circ}C$ and further improved by adding several rear-earth codopants. The $(Ba,Sr)_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ particles prepared by spray pyrolysis had a good excitation spectrum in the wavelength longer than 350 nm. Therefore, it was concluded that the $(Ba,Sr)_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ prepared by spray pyrolysis is a good green-emitting phosphor for LED application.

  • Randomly oriented ferroelectric cerium-substituted $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films have been prepared by using metal-organic decomposition method. The layered perovskite structure was investigated using annealing for 1 h in the temperature range from $550\;{\sim}\;750\;^{\circ}C$. The structure and morphology of the films were characterized using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy The $Bi_{3.4}Ce_{0.6}Ti_3O_{12}$ (BCeT) thin films showed a perovskite phase and dense microstructure. The grain size of the BCeT films increasedwith increasing annealing temperature. The hysteresis loops of the films were well defined at temperatures above $600\;^{\circ}C$. The 200-nm-thick BCeT thin films annealed at $650\;^{\circ}C$ showed a large remanent polarization (2Pr) of 59.3 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ at an applied voltage of 10 V. The BCeT thin films showed good fatigue endurance up to $5\;{\times}\;10^9$ bipolar cycling at 5 V and 100 kHz.

  • Ferroelectric ceramics are broadly used for various industrial applications. In this research, the lead-free ferroelectric ceramics of $(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_3$ was fabricated by using the solid state synthesis. The $(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_3$ pellets were sintered at 1200, 1150 and $1100^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours in air atmosphere. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) characterization of the sintered KNN ceramics revealed surface morphology and grain size. And we used the X-ray diffraction (XRD) for measuring the sample crystal phase. Temperature dependence of the dielectric constant was measured by using an LCR meter. The sintered at $1150^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours sample has a highest dielectric constant 6011 at Curie temperature ($T_C$) and dense structure with $2.33{\mu}m$ grain size.

  • Ultrastructure and sperm morphology were investigated Mactra venerifomis, Mactra chinensis, Spisula sacharinensis, Tresus keenae in Mactridae. All the sperm studied were primitive type. They consisted of three parts; the head, the middle piece and the tail part. The acrosome forms were similar among the 4 species. The acrosome was shaped like a modified hat. It was consisted of two different parts in electronic density; the anterior part, electric lucent part (elp), and the posterior part, electric dense part (edp). But nuclei forms were slightly different among the species. All the species studied had 4 mitocondria at middle piece. We guessed that the Mactridae sperm were family-specific with characterful acrosome shape.

  • We probe 12CO J=2-1 and 13CO J=1-0 properties of a Virgo disk galaxy, NGC 4402 which is located near the cluster center. Our goal is to study the impact of intra cluster medium (ICM) on the molecular gas of a galaxy in the cluster environment. It has been believed that cluster galaxies are deficient in atomic hydrogen gas (HI gas) compared to their field counterparts and now there is much evidence that low density ISM can be easily removed by ram pressure caused by ICM wind. Meanwhile, no significant molecular gas deficiency of the cluster galaxy population has been found yet they show overall lower star formation rate than galaxies in the field, and it is still controversy whether dense ISM can be also stripped by the ICM wind or not. NGC 4402 with truncated HI disk($D_{HI}/D_{opt}$ ~ 0.75 and only 36%of HI gas compare to field galaxies of a similar size) and a disturbed gas morphology, appears to have strong ongoing ram pressure. Using high resolution 12 and 13CO data of NGC 4402 from a Sub Millimeter Array (SMA), we probe the molecular gas properties under strong ICM pressure. We discuss how its star formation activity and hence the global color of NGC4402 would be changed in the future.
