In recent years, the iron-dominated high-temperature superconductor (HTS) quadrupole magnets are being developed for heavy ion accelerators. Field analyses for iron-dominated quadrupole magnets were based on the normal-conducting (NC) quadrupole magnet early in the development for accelerators. Some conclusions are still in use today. However, the magnetic field of iron-dominated HTS quadrupole magnets cannot fully follow these conclusions. This study established an HTS quadrupole magnet model and an NC quadrupole magnet model, respectively. The harmonic characteristics of two magnets were analyzed and compared. According to the comparison, the conventional iron-dominated quadrupole magnets can be designed for maximum field gradient; the HTS quadrupole magnet, however, should be considered with varying field gradient. Finally, the HTS quadrupole magnet was designed for the changing field gradient. The field quality of the design was improved comparing with the result of the previous study. The new design for the HTS quadrupole magnet has been suggested.

Operator technique has been applied for calculation of the quadrupole moment matrix-elements. Master formulas for the quadrupole moment matrix elements for pairs of Slater type, orbitals are derived, one using the expansion method for spherical harmonics and the other the transformed of the quadrupole moment matrix elements into overlap integrals for Mulliken. The numerical values of the quadrupole moment matrix elements evaluated by two methods are in agreement with each other and the calculated quadrupole moment for the ground state of HCl molecule is also in agreement with that of Nesbet.

부분압 분석 장비의 감도 측정 시스템을 설계 제작하였다. 이 시스템을 이용하여 부분압측정기기로 많이 쓰이는 Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer의 N2, O2, Ar, CO, H2에 대한 감도를 10-4∼10-8torr 영역에서 측정하여 감도의 압력 의존성을 보고 검출 방식, Emission current, Secondary Electron Multiplier 전압 등이 감도에 미치는 영향도 측정하였다. 실험 결과 기체 종류에 따라서는 물론 사용조건에 따라서도 감도의 절대값 변화 및 압력 의존성 변화가 아주 심한 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer를 정량적인 측정에 이용하기 위해서는 이에 대한 감도 측정 및 특정조사가 반드시 선행되어야 한다.

Quadrupole mass spectrometer는 부분압 측정 및 잔류기체 분석에 널리 이용되고 있는 장비이다. CO, H2, Ar이 혼합되어 존재할 때 quadrupole mass spectrometer의 감도를 10-4∼10-8torr영역에서 측정하고 단일기체로 존재할 때의 감도와 비교하였다. 그 결과 일정한 부분압을 유지하고 있는 경우라도, 주위 분위기 기체 종류와 부위기 기체 압력에 따라 감도 별화가 심한 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 QMS를 부분압 측정이나 조성분석에 이용하기 위해서는 이에 대한 특성조사가 반드시 필요하다.

The Brownian motion or Wiener process, as the physical model of the stochastic procedure, is observed as an indexed collection random variables. Stochastic procedure are quite influential on the confinement potential fluctuation in the quadrupole ion trap (QIT). Such effect is investigated for a high fractional mass resolution Δm/m spectrometry. A stochastic procedure like the Wiener or Brownian processes are potentially used in quadrupole ion traps (QIT). Issue examined are the stability diagrams for noise coefficient, η=0.07;0.14;0.28 as well as ion trajectories in real time for noise coefficient, η=0.14. The simulated results have been obtained with a high precision for the resolution of trapped ions. Furthermore, in the lower mass range, the impulse voltage including the stochastic potential can be considered quite suitable for the quadrupole ion trap with a higher mass resolution.

Quadrupole Mass Spectrometers (QMS) is a very useful tool in vacuum process diagnosis. Tungsten filament based ion sources are vulnerable to contamination from process gas monitoring. Common symptoms of quadrupole mass spectrometer malfunction is appearance of unwanted contaminant mass peaks or no detection of any ion peaks. We disassembled used quadrupole mass spectrometer and found out black insulating deposits on inside of ion source parts. Five steps of cleaning procedure were applied and almost full restoration of functions were confirmed in two types of closed ion source quadrupole mass spectrometer. By using a numerical modeling (CFD-ACE+) technique, the electric potential profile of ion source with/without insulating deposit was calculated and showed the possibility of quadrupole mass spectrometer malfunction by the deterioration of designed potential profile inside the ion source.

An inhomogeneous hyperbolic electric field is established among two-dimensional quadrupole electrodes to which an ac voltage is applied. Conditions under which charged particles are focused into a narrow axis region of the plug laminar flow are discussed. The aerodynamic forces influence the behavior of the charged particles in the quadrupole electric field. We derived the dimensionless equations of motion of a charged particle in the alternating quadrupole electric field, and discussed particle trajectories and focusing performance in terms of two dimensionless parameters, which are functions of particle size, operating pressure, and the amplitude and frequency of applied AC voltage, with the results of numerical simulations and experiments.

An analysis method of components and isotopic compositions of low pressure gases from nuclear fuel rod using quadrupole mass spectrometer was studied. The calibration curves of each gas in pure and mixtures of He, $N_2$, $O_2$, Ar, Kr and Xe were obtained as a function of pressure and concentration, respectively. Effect of molecular leak, located between sample chamber and analyser chamber, on the sensitivites was also studied. The results suggested that samples could be analysed accurately at the same analytical condition as that of synthetic gas mixture. The difference of sensitivities among isotopes of Kr and Xe was not observed in the range of measured pressure.

Among underwater noise sources around submerged bodies, turbulence-induced noise has not been well investigated because of the difficulty of predicting it. In computational aeroacoustics, a number of studies has been conducted using the Ffowcs Williamse-Hawkings (FW-H) acoustic analogy without consideration of quadrupole source term due to the unacceptable calculation cost. In this paper, turbulence-induced noise is predicted, including that due to quadrupole sources, using a large eddy simulation (LES) turbulence model and a developed formulation of permeable FW-H method with an open source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tool-kit. Noise around a circular cylinder is examined and the results of using the acoustic analogy method with and without quadrupole noise are compared, i.e. the FW-H method without quadrupole noise versus the permeable FW-H method that includes quadrupole sources. The usability of the permeable FW-H method for the prediction of turbulence-noise around submerged bodies is shown.

Continuous on-line monitoring of cell concentration and growth rate in aerobic batch fermentation process was carried out by analyzing the exhaust gas composition of tormentor with a quadrupole mass spectrometer. From the mass spectrometric analyses of major gaseous components, i.e. $N_2$, $O_2$, $CO_2$ and $H_2O$, and the material balance equations for oxygen and carbon dioxide, oxygen uptake rate (OUR) rind carbon dioxide evolution rate (CER) were instantaneously calculated using a computer (16-bit IBM PC-AT) interfaced to a quadrupole mass spectrometer. The calculated OUR and CER data were used for the estimation of cell concentration and growth rate of Candida utilis during batch culture. It was found that the cell concentration could be satisfactorily estimated from the data of OUR arid CER during the culture and this method could be successfully und for the continuous monitoring of cell growth and growth rate.
