The Pohang Light Source (PLS) is a third generation 2 GeV synchrotron machine. An injection kicker modulator is positioned in the PLS storage ring tunnel. The kicker modulator is driving four kicker magnets simultaneously. The kicker magnets produce magnetic field to deflect the stored beam orbit in the storage ring closer to the injected beam from the PLS beam transfer line. The injected beam then falls into the storage ring beam dynamic aperture. The current kicker modulator was upgraded and installed on August 1995. Since then, the kicker modulator has shown very reliable and stable performance. The kicker modulator specifications are ${\sim}6.0{\mu}s$ full width, ${\sim}24$ kA peak current, and 10 Hz repetition rate. Output current waveform is a half sinusoid. Two thyratron switches(EEV CX-1536AX) are used in the kicker modulator. Total accumulated thyratron heater run hour is about 15,000 hours as of May 1998. Measurement result of spatial magnetic field distribution in the kicker magnet shows good uniformity.

Our experiment investigated the degree of soil contaimination caused by oil leakage. Each soil sample was taken by boring 5, 8m below the test areas, located 5 to 30m from storage tanks at oil stations. According to the results from a series of laboratory tests(both soxhiet extract test and gas chromatograph test), Traces of a light oil were found in all samples except in Dj8, rocky soil and gasoline and petroleum were not detected. We concluded that soil contamination was caused by the corrosion of storage tanks or alternatively by oil overflow caused during the flooding of underground water seeping into the tank during heavy rain fall or the spillage caused by carelessness during lubrication. Old stations without a concrete box enclosing their metal tanks run a greater risk of oil leakage. To research the effect of oil leakage on plant growth and underground water, We examined the results of research conducted overseas. According to these results, when oil leakage occurs, plant growth is repressed and agricultural crops experience low productivity levels. Also, the contamination of underground water can be serious when oil spreads to the aquifer layer. As a result of these problems, to prevent oil leakage and minimize its contaminating effects at oil stations, it is necessary to improve facilities of storage tanks and have the monitoring system of oil leakage.

Jindo Hongju is a traditional liquor in Korea. The characteristic of Hongju are its unique flavour and red color which is extracted from the root of gromwell (Lithospermum erythrorhizon). It is due to these color and flavour that Hongju attracts visual charm. However, the commercial value of Hongju is reduced because of the discoloration of red pigment during storage. Therefore, factors which cause the discoloration of red pigment and methods to prevent discoloration were investigated. The results obtained from this study are summarized as follows. The factors that cause the discoloration were visible light, temperature (beyond $40^{\circ}C$), pH (above 10) and inorganic ion ($Cu^{2-}$). Among all the additives added, Cystein (100 ppm) was the most effective inhibitor of pigment discoloration.

A transfer cask serves as the container for transporting and handling canisters loaded with spent nuclear fuels from light water reactors. This study focuses on a cylindrical transfer cask, standing at 5,300 mm with an external diameter of 2,170 mm, featuring impact limiters on the top and bottom sides. The base of the cask body has an openable/closable lid for loading canisters with storage modules. The transfer cask houses a canister containing spent nuclear fuels from lightweight reactors, serving as the confinement boundary while the cask itself lacks the confinement structure. The objective of this study was to conduct a structural analysis evaluation of the transfer cask, currently under development in Korea, ensuring its safety. This evaluation encompasses analyses of loads under normal, off-normal, and accident conditions, adhering to NUREG-2215. Structural integrity was assessed by comparing combined results for each load against stress limits. The results confirm that the transfer cask meets stress limits across normal, off-normal, and accident conditions, establishing its structural safety.

Inactivation by UV-C irradiation of Listeria monocytogenes cocktail inoculated on hamburger patties was examined. Hamburger patty samples were inoculated with 6-7 log CFU/mL of L. monocytogenes cocktail, and then exposed to doses of 0, 1, 5, or $10kJ/m^2$ of UV-C light, followed by storage at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 7 d. Microbiological evaluation indicated that the populations of L. monocytogenes decreased significantly (p<0.05) as irradiation dose increased. In particular, L. monocytogenes populations decreased by 2.03 log CFU/g after exposure to 10 $kJ/m^2$, compared with control samples. The thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance levels of hamburger patty samples increased during storage, regardless of UV-C irradiation status. These results indicate that UV-C irradiation may be useful in improving the microbial safety of hamburger patties during storage.

Extraction Efficiency of colorants from sorghum and its storage stability were examined according to the various extracting and storage conditions in this study. The obtained results were as follows ; The absorbance values of extracted colorants were increased with increasing extract time and temperature. The extraction at pH 4 extract was most efficient among the various pH conditions. In the juice extractor system, the amount of extracted colorant was more in distilled water pre-treatment than pH 5, but it was more in pH 5 in the long time pre-treatment above 20 hour. The color of extract solutions changed through variation of the pH. Its color changed from light yellow to heavy yellow finally red ton by pH increasing. The Methionine addition gave an effect on the storage stability of colorant solution and then had better storage stability. And so it delayed the color change up to storge period 18th day and the stabilizing effect was revealed in order of Methionine 10mmol-addition>20mmol-addtion>non-addtion.

To identify the effect of packaging film on browning reaction of dried squid, 3 kinds of packaging film$(NYLON\;12\;{\mu}m/LDPE\;80\;{\mu}m)$ including transparency, white, black film were tested about browning degree of dried squid during storage at ambient temperature for 50 days. During storage period, water content and water activity were maintained almost constant, and microbial count was not changed. When color index was measured by color difference meter, L value and ${\Delta}E$ value were the highest in the dried squid packaged with transparency film. ${\Delta}E$ value was rapidly increased in early packaging period(within 10 day). TBA value was showed same tendency with ${\Delta}E$ value in early storage period. So, the browning was supposed to originated from lipid oxidation by UV light transmitted through packaging film in the early storage period.

Objective To evaluate the influence of water storage on the mechanical properties of dental adhesives over 1 and 3 months. Materials and Methods Adhesive resin sheets were prepared by pouring either All-bond 2(AB), Clearfil SE Bond(SE) into a mold measuring $15{\times}15{\times}0.9mm$. After solvent in primer evaporation, the adhesives were light-cured and removed from the mold and divided in two pieces, trimmed to hourglass shape that were used to determine the micro-tensile strength(MTS). Another hourglass shaped metal mold measuring $2.0{\times}1.5mm$ in cross-section area was made to determine the Young's modulus(E). Adhesive specimens for Young's modulus(E) were prepared in the same method. Specimens were stored at $37^{\circ}C$ in distilled water and tested after 1 and 3 months. The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test. Results Water storage significantly decreased the micro-tensile strength(MTS) of AB and SE specimens after 1 and 3 months(P<0.05). The Young's modulus(E) were also decreased after water storage for 1 and 3 months, but statistically not significant in each group of AB and SE group respectively. Conclusions Long-term exposure of adhesive resin to water can cause reduction of mechanical properties. It may compromise resin/dentin bonds and affect longevity of restorations.

To use effectively the solar energy in greenhouse heating, a high performance solar collector should be developed. And then the size of the solar collector and thermal storage tank should be determined through the calculation of heating load. The solar collector must be set in the optimum tilt angle and direction to take daily solar radiation maximally, and the flow rate of heat transfer fluid through the solar collector should be kept in the optimum range. In this research, the performance tests of a capillary tube solar collector were performed to determine the optimum water flow rate and the results summarized as follows. 1. The regressive equations for efficiency estimations of the capillary tube solar collector in the open loop were modeled in the water flow rate of 700-l,000 $\ell$/hr. 2. The optimum water flow rate of the solar collector was estimated by the second order polynomial regression and the maximum efficiency was 80% at the water flow rate of 850 $\ell$/hr. 3. The solar thermal storage system consisted of a capillary tube solar collector and a water storage tank was tested at the water flow rate of 850 $\ell$/hr in the closed loop, and obtained the solar thermal storage efficiency of 55.2%. 4. As the capillary tube solar collector engaged in this experiment was made of non-corrosive polyolefin tubes, its weight was as light as 1/30 of the flat plate solar collector made of copper tubes. Therefore it was considered to be suitable for the greenhouse heating system.
