This paper describes athermally stimulated displacement current (TSDC) of arachidic acid(AA) and polyamic acid alkylamine salts(PAAS) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films, which is a precursor of polyimide(PI). The TSDC measurements of AA LB film were performed from temperature to about 11$0^{\circ}C$ at a rate of 0.2$^{\circ}C$/ｓ inside a vacuum chamber for a reference. And the TSDC measurements PAAS LB film were performed from room temperature to about 25$0^{\circ}C$ and temperature was increased at the same rate as that of AA LB film. They show that there are TSDC peaks at about 7$0^{\circ}C$ in the arachidic acid LB films, and at about 7$0^{\circ}C$ and 16$0^{\circ}C$ in the PAAs LB films. Results of these measurements indicate the one small peak at 7$0^{\circ}C$ is resulted from a softening of the alkyl group and the large peak at 16$0^{\circ}C$ is possibly due to dipole of C-O group in the PASS molecule. We have calculated the vertical component of the AA and PAAs L film out of the TSDC curves. It shows that the dipole moment of the AA LB film is about 70-mD at 7$0^{\circ}C$. And the dipole moment of PAAS LB film is about 040mD at 7$0^{\circ}C$ and about 200mD at 16$0^{\circ}C$ in the first measurement of TSDC. In the second measurement of TSDC of PASS LB film after cooling down to room temperature, the TSDC peaks are almost disappeared.

We present the results of far-ultraviolet (FUV) observations of comet C/2001 Q4 (NEAT) obtained with Far-ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (FIMS) on board the Korean microsatellite STSAT-1, which operated at an altitude of 700 km in a sun-synchronous orbit. FIMS is a dual-channel imaging spectrograph (S channel 900-1150 ${\AA}$, L channel 1350-1750 ${\AA}$, ${\lambda}/{\Delta}{\lambda}$ ~ 550) with large image fields of view (S: $4^{\circ}.0{\times}4^{\prime}.6$, L: $7^{\circ}.5{\times}4^{\prime}.3$, angular resolution 5'-10') optimized for the observation of diffuse emission of astrophysical radiation. Comet C/2001 Q4 (NEAT) was observed with a scanning survey mode when it was located around the perihelion between 8 and 15 May 2004. Several important emission lines were detected including S I (1425, 1474 ${\AA}$), C I (1561, 1657 ${\AA}$) and several emission lines of CO $A^1{\Pi}-X^1{\Sigma}^+$ system in the L channel. Production rates of the notable molecules, such as C I, S I and CO, were estimated from the photon fluxes of these spectral lines and compared with previous observations. We compare the flux and the production rates in the radius of $3{\times}10^5$ km with $20{\times}10^5$ km from the central coma. We obtained L-channel image which have map size $5^{\circ}{\times}5^{\circ}$ The image was constructed for the wavelength band of L-channel (1350 - 1710 ${\AA}$. We also present the radial profiles of S I, C I, CO obtained from the spectral images of the central coma. The radial profiles of $2{\times}10^6$ km region are compared with the Haser model.

Signalized intersection analysis using lane groups often generalizes distinct characteristics of individual lanes. An individual lane level analysis procedure is proposed. The method can assess individual lane LOS without additional data collection efforts. Analysis results of the proposed method were compared with the current HCM analysis results and outputs of aaSIDRA, which can calculate intersection performance lane-by-lane. The results showed individual lane analysis mostly produces similar results with HCM and aaSIDRA. However, lane analysis results for permitted left lanes showed some differences with aaSIRDRA due to the different method of assessing saturation flow rate of the permitted left turn movement. It is expected that the proposed method could complement the weaknesses of current HCM signalized intersection analysis.

The magnetic properties of aluminum anodized film in which Co-Fe alloy electrodeposited are investigated with regard to the alloy composition of magnetic films. The electrodeposited Co-Fe particles are confirmed to be single phase Co-Fe alloys by X-ray diffractions. At 34 at% Co, the sample with small pore diameter(particle diameter $150\;{\AA}$) has a large magnetic energy product($B_{max}$) of about 1.44 MGOe due to the large saturation magnetization, the high coercive force and good squareness of the M-H curve. However, for the samples with particle diameter larger than $450\;{\AA}$, the bottom of each particle forms abnormal particle claaed branch-shaped unlike the sample of the particle diameter $150\;{\AA}$. In this case, the magnetic anisotropy energy was about zero at the compositions of 45 and 75 at% Co. Moreover, at the compositions from 50 to 70 at% Co, the anisotropy became negative value. This means that an easy axis of magnetization of the film is in plane in plane in spite of the perpendicular shape anisotropy of the particle. It was found that the bottom extremity of the particle contains FeC from the X-ray diffraction. Thus the effect of the bottom extremity, that is, an unusal magnetic property was removed by electrodepositing Cu at the bottom extremity of the particle. Itis clear that the magnetic properties of the ilms are influenced by he branch-shaped bottom extremity filled with FeC.

For CoZr/Ag/CoCr trilayered films deposited by DC and FR magnetron sputtering method, ferromagentic resonance experiments have been used to investigate the dependence of the exchange coupling between CoZr and CoCr layers separated by Ag layer on the thickness of the Ag layer. The coupling strength K increases with increasing Ag thickness up to 10 $\AA$ with a maximum value of 748 Oe, but oscillates with increasing Ag thickness in the range from 20 to 100 $\AA$. The coupling strength is positive for all samples. Hence, it seems that the exchange coupling between CoZr and CoCr layers separated by Ag layer is ferromagnetic.

We obtained the new complexes, $Fe{\eta}^4-R,R'-TPSCp](CO)_3$(R,R'-TPSCp = 1,1-disubstituted 2,3,4,5-Tetraphenyl-1-Silacyclopenta-2,4-diene; R = Ph, R' = Cl, R = R' = Cl) from the reaction of the corresponding R,R'-TPSCp with ironpentacarbonyl under reflux in toluene. Also, the analogous complexes with R = R' = Me and R = Me, R' = Cl were obtained in an identical manner. We have determined the crystal structure of $Fe[Ph(Cl)-TPSCp](CO_)3$ by using Mo ka, ${\lambda}$ = 0.71069${\AA}$, where the unit cell was found to be monoclinic with a = 9.042 (6)${\AA}$, b = 19.870 (9)${\AA}$, c = 17.426 (9)${\AA}$ and ${\beta}$ = 96.28(4)$^{\circ}$. The butadiene moiety of TPSCp ring is planar and the dihedral angle of the butadiene plane and C4-Si-C25 plane was opened up to 41.8$^{\circ}$. The C-C distances in the butadiene moiety were found to be 1.4346, 1.462, and 1.440 ${\AA}$, respectively. It may be said that the four ${\pi}$-electrons are delocalized over the four carbons in five membered ring through coordination with ironcarbonyl. In this complex Fe is either in distorted tetrahedron environment with the centroid of the four C-atom butadiene moiety and three carbons of the three carbonyls or in distorted square-pyramidal environment with two midpoints of double bonds of the butadiene moiety and two carbons of carbonyl defining the base of the pyramid and the carbon of remaining carbonyl the apex.

The polycrystalline powder of (CaLa) (MgMo)$O_6$ has been prepared at $1350^{\circ}C$ in $H_2/H_2O$ and $N_2$ flowing atmosphere. The powder X-ray diffraction pattern indicates that (CaLa) (MgMo)$O_6$ has a monoclinic perovskite structure with the lattice constants $a_0=b_0=7.901(1){\AA}$, $c =7.875(1){\AA}\;and\;{\gamma}=89^{\circ}$16'(1'), which can be reduced to orthorhombic unit cell, a = 5.551(1) ${\AA}$, b = 5.622(1) ${\AA}$ and c = 7.875(1) ${\AA}$. The infrared spectrum shows two strong absorption bands with their maxima at 590($ν_3$) and 380($ν_4$) cm, which are attributed to $2T_{1u}$ modes indicating the existence of highly charged molybdenum octahedron $MoO_6$ in the crystal lattice. According to the magnetic susceptibility measurement, the compound follows the Curie-Weiss law below room temperature with the effective magnetic moment 1.83(1)$_{{\mu}B}$, which is well consistent with that of spin only value (1.73 $_{\mu}_B$) for $Mo^{5+}$ with $4d^1$-electronic configuration within the limit of experimental error. From the thermogravimetric analysis, it has been confirmed that (CaLa) (MgMo)$O_6$ decomposes gradually into $CaMoO_4,\;MoO_3,\;MgO,\;La_2O_3$ and unidentified phases due to the oxidation of $Mo^{5+}$ to $Mo^{6+}$.

Malaria remains to be one of the most severe global public health concerns. Traditionally, Aspilia Africana and Warburgia ugandensis have been used to treat malaria in several African countries for millennia. In the current study, A. africana calli (AaC), A. africana in vitro roots (AaIR), A. africana wild leaf (AaWL), and W. ugandensis stem bark (WuSB) were dried and pulverized. Fourier transform near-infrared spectroscopy was used to analyze the powdered samples, while 80% ethanolic extracts of each sample were assayed for antiplasmodial activity (against Plasmodium falciparum strains DD2 (chloroquine-resistant) and 3D7 (chloroquine-sensitive)) and cytotoxicity. WuSB showed the highest antiplasmodial activity (IC₅₀ = 1.57 ± 0.210 ㎍/ml and 8.92 ± 0.365 ㎍/ml against P. falciparum 3D7 and DD2, respectively) and selectivity indices (43.90 ± 7.914 and 7.543 ± 0.051 for P. falciparum 3D7 and DD2, respectively). The highest total polyphenolic contents (total phenolic and flavonoid contents of 367.9 ± 3.55 mg GAE/g and 203.9 ± 1.43 mg RUE/g, respectively) were recorded for WuSB and the lowest were recorded for AaC. The antiplasmodial activities of the tested plant tissues correlated positively with total polyphenolic content. The high selectivity indices of WuSB justify its traditional applications in treating malaria and present it as a good candidate for discovering new antimalarial compounds. We recommend elicitation treatment for AaIR, which showed moderate antiplasmodial activity against P. falciparum DD2, to increase its secondary metabolite production for optimal antimalarial activity.

Fish protein was acylated with acetic anhydride(AA), succinic anhydride(SA) and maleic anhydride(MA) in order to improve the functional properties of the protein. The surface hydrophobicity and functional properties of protein were measured to study the relationship between them. It was found that the extented acylation of nucleophilic groups such as amino and sulfhydryl groups of the amino acid residues of fish protein was higher than other groups when acylated with AA, and the degree of acylation was 89.5 % for amino groups and 72.2 % for sulfhydryl groups. The surface hydrophobicity of fish protein was decreased by succinylation and maleylation, whereas acetylation caused tittle change. The acylated fish protein concentrate(FPC) showed higher surface hydrophobicity than the acylated fish myofibrilla protein(FMP). Acylation with AA, SA and MA of fish protein resulted in a significant increase in protein solubility, emulsifier properties, foaming properties, water adsorption capacity and oil adsorption capacity. These properties of acylated FMP were more improved than those of acylated FPC. Decrease in protein hydrophobicity was highly correlated with increase in protein solubility, and emulsifier properties and foaming properties were largely dependent on the solubility as well as surface hydrophobicity. The water adsorption capacity of the protein was significantly affected by solubility. Surface hydrophobicity had greater influence on oil adsorption capacity, whereas it had tittle effect on water adsorption capacity.

Multi core-shell composite particles were prepared by the water-born emulsion polymerization of various core monomer such as methyl methacrylate (MMA), n-butyl methacrylate (BMA), and shell monomer such as MMA, BMA, stylene (St), 2-hydroxyl ethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA) and acrylic acid (AA) in the presence of different concentration of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). The following conclusions are drawn from the measured conversion, particle size and distribution, average molecular weight, molecular structure, glass transition temperature with DSC, morphology, tensile strength and elongation. In the case of the concentration of 0.02 wt% SDBS, the conversion of MMA core-(BMA/St/AA) shell composite particle was excellent as 98%. In the case of the concentration of 0.03 wt% SDBS, the particle size of BMA core-(MMA/St/AA) shell composite particle was high as $0.47{\mu}m$. We confirmed that 3 points of glass transition temperatures appear for multi core-shell composite particles compared to 2 points of glass transition temperatures appear for general core-shell composite particles. We showed that it is possible to adjust glass transition temperatures according to the kind and composition of the inner shell monomer that it is can be used as a adhesive binder material with improved adhesive power.
