We investigated rhizome yield and growth characteristics of wasabi variety, Daioichigo and Daruma cultured by flowing water from Trout nersery in Pyong Chang. Average temp. of air and water during a year was 14.3, 12.3$^{\circ}C$, respectively in PE film house. Wasabi growth was good and healthy in May and October. Rhizome weight of main stem in Daioichigo was 78.78g per plant and 608kg per l0a, while those of the Daruma was 37.1g per plant and 287kg per l0a. Rate of marketable rhizome was 90% in Daioichigo and 37.5% in Darurna. Rhizome weight of main stem in Daioichigo was increased, up to 21% of the control by the remove of floral axis with two times a year.

We carried out NPT-ensemble (constant-number of particles, pressure, and temperature) Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations for measuring strength anisotropy under uniaxial compressive stress rotated to the crystallographic axes in $\alpha$-quartz. Uniaxial compressive strengths of a single quartz crystal were measured in directions of the a- and c-axis. Measured uniaxial strength of a single quartz crystal was higher in the direction parallel to the c-axis than that measured in the direction normal to the c-axis. However the reverse was found in calculated uniaxial strengths by MD simulation. The contradictive result of strengths was observed in both cases but was found to be different in origin. Strength anisotropy of defectless $\alpha$-quartz crystal in MD simulation is basically caused by structural difference of quartz. By contrast, anisotropy of measured strength in the uniaxial compression test is related to oriented micro-defects developed during crystal growth.

$YbFeCoO_4$ single crystal was grown by floating zone method. The atmospheric condition of the growth was controlled in air and the growth rate was 1~2 mm/hr. After melting the feed rod of the composition of $YbFeCoO_4$, $YbFeCoO_4$ was decomposed to $YbFeCoO_4$ and CoO phase in the initial state of the growth. The liquid composition, however, changed to the direction of the eutectic point along the liquidus line and then stopped at the point in which $YbFeCoO_4$ single crystal could be grown. The growth direction of the crystal was preferred orientation [110], perpendicular to the c-axis in the hexagonal system due to using the polycrystalline seed.

Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CuOx(Bi-2201) thin films were fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition using an ion bean sputtering method. 10 wt% and 90 wt% ozone mired with oxygen were used with ultraviolet light irradiation to assist oxidation. XRD and RHEED investigations revealed that a buffer layer is formed at the early stage of deposition (less than 10 unit cell), and then c-axis oriented Bi-2201 grows on top of it.

The effect of Ca-doping on the superconducting properties of Nd-Ba-Cu-O bulk superconductors, fabricated by the oxygen-controlled melt growth process, has been systematically investigated. Various c-axis textured bulk samples were grown using precursors with the nominal compositions of N $d_{1.8-x}$C $a_{x}$B $a_{2.4}$C $u_{3.4}$ $O_{y}$ (x = 0.00, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15) in a reduced oxygen atmosphere of 1% $O_2$ in Ar. Magnetization measurements revealed that the critical temperatures( $T_{c}$) were almost linearly depressed from 95K to 86K with increasing the Ca dopant from x = 0.0 to 0.15, respectively, and thus critical current densities( $J_{c}$) at 77K and for H//c-axis of specimens were gradually degraded with increasing x. Compositional analyses revealed that although the amounts of the Ca dopant both in NdB $a_2$C $u_3$ $O_{y}$(Nd123) and N $d_4$B $a_2$C $u_2$ $O_{10}$(Nd422) were increased with increasing x, only less than half of the initial Ca compositions were detected in melt-grown Ca-doped Nd-Ba-Cu-O bulk crystals. The supression of $T_{c}$ is attributed to an increased Nd substitution for the Ba site in the Nd123 superconducting matrix with increasing the amount of the Ca dopant.t.opant.t.t.t.t.t.

Background: Fibromyalgia is a common syndrome of musculoskeletal pain and fatigue. Lacking distinctive histological or laboratory abnormality in diagnosis, it has often been considered a form of "psychogenic rheumatism". Fibromyalgia causes much distress to the affected patients and often frustrates physicians, who are unable to start rational therapy on any logical disease pathology. Methods: Growth hormone is essential for muscular homeostasis. In the present study, the notion that the stage-4 sleep anomaly typically seen in the fibromyalgia syndrome may disrupt growth hormone secretion was tested. Because growth hormone has a very short half-life, serum levels of somatomedin C were measured; somatomedin C is the major mediator of growth hormone's anabolic actions and is a prerequisite for normal muscle homeostasis. Serum levels of somatomedin C using acid-extraction procedure and two-site immunoradiome-tric assay (IRMA) and number of tender points were measured in 27 female patients with fibromyalgia from 40 to 60 years old and 27 healthy controls. Results: There were no differences in the concentration of somatomedin C between fibromyalgia patients and controls ($mean{\pm}SD$: $178.3{\pm}75.5$ ng/ml versus $166.3{\pm}76.6$ ng/ml; p=0.55). And there were no correlations between number of tender point and serum somatomedin C level by linear regression analysis. Conclusions: These findings did not support that there is a distinctive disruption of the growth hormone-somatomedin C neuroendocrine axis in a fibromyalgia syndrome. But we can not discard the hypothesis that disturbed sleep predispose to muscle pain.

BSCCO thin films have been fabricated by co-deposition at an ultralow growth rate using ion beam sputtering(IBS) method. Bi 2212 phase appeared in the temperature range of 750 and $795^{\circ}C$ and single phase of Bi 2201 existed in the lower region than $785^{\circ}C$. Whereas, ozone gas pressure dependance on structural formation was scarcely observed regardless of the pressure variation. And high quality of c-axis oriented Bi 2212 thin film with $T_c$(onset) of about 90 K and $T_c$(zero) of about 45 K is obtained. Only a small amount of CuO in some films was observed as impurity, and no impurity phase such as $CaCuO_2$ was observed in all of the obtained films.

We has made 2-zone vertical electric furnace and has been grown CdS single crystal by sublimation method in crystal growth tube with tail tube without seed crystal for growth. While it has been growing, temperature difference ${\Delta}T$ of source and growth part has nearly agreed with theoritical value $14.7^{\circ}C$and experimental value $15^{\circ}C$ Then, crystal of best quality has been grown, when temperature of tail tube has been $110^{\circ}C$, in spite of quickly pulling up crystal growth tube a degree O.38mm per hour. The grown crystal have had hexagonal structure and single crystal with c-axis to length of crystal growth tube from X- ray diffraction pattern of powder method and Laue pattern of back reflection Laue method. Also, the mobility and carrier density from Hall effect measurement have been $316cm^2/V{\cdot}sec$ and $2.90{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$ at the room temperature, respectively.
