One of common causes of cold defects on bone scintigraphy is an attenuation artifact. Cold defects can be produced by belt buckles, buttons, earring, necklaces, or other metal objects. Cold lesions in the abdomen are also produced by retained barium in the gastrointestinal tract after recent barium studies. We observed artifacts due to retained barium in the colon on bone scintigraphy, which simulated cold bone metastases in two patients with extraskeletal cancer.

Usually for the commercial preparation of barium titanate films or ceramics the reaction atmosphere must be preferably in air. However, normally air is not used because it contains carbon dioxide, which can easily react with barium to form the undesired product barium carbonate, leading to unwanted second-phase formation in the (mal stages of the process. In the present work a series of perovskite barium titanate films was prepared by the sol-gel method, using a metal alkoxide solutions in the electrophoretic deposition (EPD). The influence of several process parameters, like sintering temperature of sol preparation before EPD and heat-treatment temperature and non-oxidized atmosphere, on the film properties is described.

The main objective of the present investigation is to show the feasibility of combinatorial chemistry by applying this method to phosphor syntehses. In this respect barium hexaaluminate phosphor was prepared by the split-pool combinatorial method, which enabled much more rapid search of optimum compositions of target phosphors than conventional synthetic methods. Barium hexaaluminate phosphors doped with Eu2+ exhibit blue emission while those co-doped with Mn2+ and Eu2+ exhibit green emission. Basically, the phosphor doped with 1.3 mole of Ba and 0.06~0.15 mole of Eu2+ exhibit the maximum value of emission intensity at 435${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Under the UV and VUV extitations, the barium hexaaluminate phosphor co-doped with Mn2+ and Eu2+ shows strong green emission.

The effect on the microwave properties was investigated for the barium titanate doped with impurity of $WO_{3}$ 0.230 mole% produced by conventional solid state reaction method. Microwave resistance, reactance and impedance of the barium titanate were measured with 2-port s-parameter method by using network analyzer, in the range of room temperature to $160^{\circ}C$ and of frequency 300 kHz to 300 MHz. And possibility of frequency sensor and temperature sensor was estimated with barium titanate doped with $WO_{3}$.

Optimal synthetic conditions of barium sulfate were investigated from the viewpoint of yield and bulkiness according to a randomized complete block design proposed by Box and Wilson. Barium chloride and Sodium sulfate were utilized as reactants in order to prepare barium sulfate in this study. The optimum Synthesis conditions of barium sulfate obtained from this study are as follows; Reactant temperature; 60~75$^{\circ}C$ (viewpoint of yield) and 60~71$^{\circ}C$ (viewpoint of bulkiness). Concentration of two reactants; 12.7~14.4％ (viewpoint of yield) and 5~10.5％ (viewpoint of bulkiness). Mole ratio of two reactants, [BaCl$_2$]/[Na$_2$SO$_4$]; 1.62~1.96 (viewpoint of yield) and 2.0 (viewpoint of bulkiness). Reacting time; 13~15 minutes (viewpoint of yield) and 12~14 minutes (viewpoint of bulkiness). Drying temperature of product; 86~10$0^{\circ}C$ (viewpoint of yield) and 6$0^{\circ}C$ (viewpoint of bulkiness).

The reanalysis of the previously published abundance pattern of mild barium star HD202109 (${\zeta}$ Cyg) and the chemical compositions of 129 thin disk barium stars facilitated the search for possible correlations of different stellar parameters with second ionization potentials of chemical elements. Results show that three valuable correlations exist in the atmospheres of barium stars. The first is the relationship between relative abundances and second ionization potentials. The second is the age dependence of mean correlation coefficients of relative abundances vs. second ionization potentials, and the third one is the changes in correlation coefficients of relative abundances vs. second ionization potentials as a function of stellar spatial velocities and overabundances of s-process elements. These findings demonstrate the possibility of hydrogen and helium accretion from the interstellar medium on the atmospheres of barium stars.

Barium titanate nanoparticles were synthesized under N$_2$ atmosphere by the hydrolysis and condensation of barium hydroxide octahydrate and titanium (IV) isopropoxide. The synthesized particles were aggregates of nanosized primary particles. The primary particles of about 20-50 nm in diameter became building blocks of larger secondary particles, which are in most cases spherical in shape. The size and morphological evolution of secondary particles are strongly related to the precursor concentration. The observations suggest that formation and control of secondary particles is an essential step in the alkoxidehydroxide sol-precipitation process to obtain monodispersed barium titanate nanopowders.

An experimental study was carried out to make a comparison between tube voltage and density of barium sulphate in the stomach radiography. The results were summarized as follows: 1. The percentage of density on concentrations of barium sulphate as contrast media could not show in differences with changes of voltages applied X-ray tube. 2. The changes of density visualized on X-ray film mainly depend upon with thickness of stomach filled barium sulphate than the ratio of barium sulphite and plain water volume. 3. The lesions positioned in upper part within stomach exhibited their best discrimination performanance with depth in the low tube voltage, followed in order by the middle part and lower part. However, the discrimination performanance at the high tension radiography uniformly visualized over X-ray film without density in change.

The fabrication of the barium titanate ceramic capcitors has been studied. The effects of the impurities for alumina and silica upon mechanical and electrical characteristics have been examined in detail. The preparation of equimolar titanium oxide and barium carbide in addition two percent of alumina and point two five perdcent of silica has shown the best results. This is fired up to thirteen hundred degrees Celsius with the rate of two hundred degrees Celsius per hour and soaked three hous at this temperature. The dielectric constant of this sample is approximately equal with the standard and theoretical values at room temperature. The insulation resitances of the most fabricated capacitors are in the order of twenty thousand megohms, the dielectric constant and the dissipation factor are almost flat up to just below of curie temperature, and the porosities of the most ceramics are less than point one percent and well close or equal to zero percent.

Porous barium-strontium titanate ceramics were fabricated by adding corn- or potato-starch (are referred to as starch). The effect of sintering temperature on the microstructure and electrical properties of the porous ceramics was investigated. The room-temperature electrical resistivity of the barium-strontium titanate ceramics decreased with sintering temperature. The porosity and pore size were decreased and the grain size was increased with increasing the sintering temperature. The porosity and grain size of the barium-strontium titanate ceramics with corn-starch sintered at 1300 and 1450$^{\circ}C$ were 28.5, 22.6% and 3.2, 6.2 $\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively. The average pore sizes of the barium-strontium titanate ceramics with corn-starch sintered at 1300, 1400 and 1450$^{\circ}C$ were 0.5, 0.3 and 0.2 $\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively. The decrease in the room-temperature resistivity with increasing sintering temperature is attributed mainly due to the increase of grain size and the decrease of the electrical barrier height of grain boundaries as well as the partial decrease of porosity.
