Starting with Kubo's formula and using the projection operator technique introduced by Kawabata, EPR lineprofile function for a $Mn^{2+}$-doped wurtzite structure GaN semiconductor was derived as a function of temperature at a frequency of 9.49 GHz (X-band) in the presence of external electromagnetic field. The line-width is barely affected in the low-temperature region because there is no correlation between the resonance fields and the distribution function. At higher temperature the line-width increases with increasing temperature due to the interaction of electrons with acoustic phonons. Thus, the present technique is considered to be more convenient to explain the resonant system as in the case of other optical transition systems.

We present the Shannon entropy as an indicator of the spatial resolutions of the morphologies of the resonance mode patterns in an optical resonator. We obtain each optimized number of mesh points, one of minimum size and the other of maximum one. The optimized mesh-point number of minimum size is determined by the identifiable quantum number through a chi-squared test, whereas the saturation of the difference between Shannon entropies corresponds to the other mesh-point number of maximum size. We also show that the optimized minimum mesh-point increases as the (real) wave number increases and approximates the proportionality constant between them.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of pre-service science teachers' experiences in nuclear physics research on their understanding of scientific inquiry process and career planning. The thirty-week URP (Undergraduate Research Participation) program was designed with the participation of six pre-service science teachers. Data sources included in-depth interviews with the individual teachers, group discussions, participant observations with field notes over the weeks, journals and lab logs, etc. Results indicated that the teachers perceived the complex and repetitive nature of the science research process, the importance of scientists' creativity and collaboration, etc. Their typical impressions of scientists has also more or less changed. In addition, the teachers had opportunities to confirm their aptitude in physics and to explore their career options in physics-related fields.

Two proving methods are investigated. One method uses we mathematical induction and the other uses the progression of difference. Two methods are analysed and compared. As a result, we get a generalization of these series.

The purpose of this study was to analyze elementary school teachers' understanding, certainty, and familiarity with 13 key concepts of wave physics that are presented in textbook and teacher's guidebook. 123 elementary school teachers answered concept tests and questionnaires. In the results to these tests and questionnaires, teachers demonstrated a high level of understanding and high certainty in understanding with regard to the concepts of sound generation, effect of medium on wave, timbre, wavelength, and trough and crest of wave. For the topics of sound velocity, wave reflection and wave transmission, teachers demonstrated a high level of understanding but low certainty in understanding. With regard to sound propagation, teachers demonstrated a low level of understanding and an improperly high certainty in that low understanding. Teachers lacked knowledge, i.e., displayed a low level of understanding and low certainty in sound strength, sound frequency, constructive interference and destructive interference. In constructive and destructive interference, the teachers also displayed a low level of familiarity. We analyzed the differences in teacher's understanding, certainty, and familiarity according to teacher demographics defined by the teacher's gender, teaching experience with concepts of sound, career, curriculum track while in high school, and major in university. There were no significant differences in understanding, certainty, or familiarity as defined by gender, teaching experience, and career. However, these displays of knowledge were affected by the teacher's curriculum track in high school and their major. These results suggest that the teacher's understanding of, familiarity with, and certainty in wave physics concepts are more influenced by their learning experience than by their teaching experience. Therefore, we suggest additional learning opportunities for teachers (such as teacher training programs) in order to improve teacher knowledge and correct teacher misconceptions in wave physics.

This study examined the effect of the results of ascertaining prediction on cognitive conflict and conceptual change by physics achievement. The participants of this study were 186 11th graders. They answered a pretest composed of two items, and through a demonstration on either of the two pretest items, they ascertained whether their predictions were correct or not. The cognitive conflicts were measured with CCLT. After brief instructive treatment, a posttest was conducted to measure the degree of conceptual change. The students who ascertained that their predictions were incorrect generated more cognitive conflicts and conceptual changes than those who ascertained they were correct. In addition, cases in which student physics achievement was low were found to produce more meaningful results of ascertaining predictions on cognitive conflict and conceptual change.

In this study, four different samples of Se₆₀Ge_40-xBi_x chalcogenides glasses were synthesized by heating the melt for 18 h in vacuum Pyrex ampoules (under a 10^-4 Torre vacuum), each with a different concentration (x = 0, 10, 15, and 20) of high purity starting materials. The results of direct current (DC) electrical conductivity measurements against a 1,000/T plot for all chalcogenide samples revealed two linear areas at medium and high temperatures, each with a different slope and with different activation energies (E₁ and E₂). In other words, these samples contain two electrical conduction mechanisms: a localized conduction at middle temperatures and extended conduction at high temperatures. The results showed the local and extended state parameters changed due to the effective partial substitution of germanium by bismuth. The density of extended states N(E_ext) and localized states N(E_loc) as a function of bismuth concentration was used to gauge this effect. While the density of the localized states decreased from 1.6 × 10¹⁴ to 4.2 × 10¹² (ev^-1 cm^-3) as the bismuth concentration increased from 0 to 15, the density of the extended states generally increased from 3.552 × 10²¹ to 5.86 × 10²¹ (ev^-1 cm^-3), indicating a reduction in the mullet's randomness. This makes these alloys more widely useful in electronic applications due to the decrease in the cost of manufacturing.

The Korean Federation of Education Association has published "Vacation Life" to promote self-teaching of middle school students during the summer and winter vacation of middle school students every year. The book include whole subjecy offered in the middle school. However subject of science(Physics, chemistry, biology and earth science) is more emphasized. This article described brief summary of the contents of biology branch published in winter "Vacation Life", 1980 and summer "Vacation Life" 1981.
