  • In this investigation x-ray diffraction method was mainly studied for quantitative analysis of clinker mineral composition. And also optical microscopic observation and Bogue calculation method were applied to compare with the x-ray diffraction method. In the procedure of x-ray diffraction analysis graphite monochromator automatic divergence slit and spinner for sample holder were used for minimizing the error due to the operation of the equipment. Especially the separation of overlapped peaks were proceeded by micro-processor automatically. The results of x-ray diffraction method for synthesized clinker were consistent with the Bogue value and the results of optical microscopic observation. However the results of quantitative analysis of mineral composition or commercial clinker containing solid solution of minor component were different from the Bogue value. On the other hand they agreed reasonably well with results of the optical mic-roscopic observation.

  • In the present study, in-situ real-time observation with an X-ray radioscopic facility was carried out on pure aluminum and aluminum alloy solidification. The three kinds of aluminum alloys, such as pure aluminum, Al-8.5%Si alloy, commercial A356 (AC4C) alloys, were used in the present study. The formations of the shrinkage defects in the castings were visualized and different formation phenomena for different aluminum alloys were investigated.

  • X-ray astronomy deals with measurements of the electromagnetic radiation in the energy range of $E\~0.1-100 keV (\lambda\~0.12-120{\AA})$. The wavelength of X-ray is comparable to the size of atoms, so that the photons in the X-ray range are usually produced and absorbed by the atomic processes. Since the launch of the first X-ray astronomy satellite 'Uhuru' in 1970, technological advances in a launch capability and a detection capability make X-ray astronomy one of the most rapidly evolving fields of astronomical research. Particularly, a spectral resolving power $E/{\Delta}E$ has been increased by an order of 2 - 3 (in the energy range of 0.1 - 10 keV) during the past 30years. In this paper, I briefly review a developing process of the resolving power and spectroscopic techniques. Then I describe important emission/absorption lines in X-ray astronomy, as well as diagnostics of gas property with line parameters.

  • The conductivity variation of a high resistivity bulk silicon semiconductor, whose electrodes were deposited with aluminum vapor, was studied experimentally by measuring the X-ray intensity and current flow, which was developed by X-ray radiation while applying a pulse voltage to the silicon, in a load resistor connected to the semiconductor. The current flow observed immediately as the X-ray radiated, and when the X-ray decreased. It was found from the observation of switching current for the X-ray intensity and the voltage applied in the semiconductor that the switching current of the semiconductor increased as the intensity of the X-ray and the applied voltage increased. In case of lower applied voltage, the switching current for higher applied voltage depended on the intensity of the X-ray radiated due to the saturation of electron and hole.

  • In the present study the new method was proposed by using the real-time X-ray observation and metal die in order to evaluate fluidity and viscosity of the molten metal during pouring into the mold. The special mold for the present experiment was introduced since X-ray could not transmit thick mold wall and scatter the image of the molten metal during pouring. The present study also discussed for evaluation of viscosities by using the flow data from radioscopy images, and the viscosities of six commercial aluminum alloys were evaluated and compared.

  • Since the successful observation by Uhuru, the first astronomical satellite, X-ray astronomy has become one of the rapidly developing fields in astronomy. The scientific results provide us the unique opportunity to understand the high energy nature of X-ray sources. We now know that our galaxy contains many different types of X-ray sources such as the compact X-ray sources, galactic bulge sources in addition to the Sun, the brightest X-ray sources in the sky. In this study we review the general properties of galactic X-ray sources, the characteristics of periodic compact X-ray sources, and bursters as well as the models.

  • The generation of coherent x-ray beams by using a multi-slit diffraction phenomenon is presented. The mode-confinement conditions in the x-ray waveguide (XWG) needed to obtain single-mode beams are determined. The XWGs are stacked to form an XWG array. The core of the XWG array is used as a slit in an opaque screen, similar to those used for visible light. Diffraction patterns that interfered constructively in the XWG array are investigated based on multi-slit diffraction theory. The irradiance distributions are studied at on observation screen. The FWHM of diffracted x-ray spectra were between $1.67{\times}10^{-4}$ to $3.30{\times}10^{-5}$ radians which lead to a spot-size of a few tens of micrometers on the screen at distance of 1 m. The intensities decrease with increase in the period of the XWG array, i.e. a thicker cladding, due to growth of the higher-order diffraction peaks.

  • The x-ray pulsar GX 1+4 was observed by us in four balloon- borne experiments carried out from Hyderabad, India during 1991-1995 period with a hard x-ray telescope. The x-ray telescope consists of two collimated large area xenon-filled proportional counters with an effective area of $2400 cm^2$, a field of view of $5^{\circ}{\times}5^{\circ}$ and sensitive in the energy band of 20 - 100 keV. The pulsar was detected in bright state in two of the four experiments and x-ray pulsations with 120 second period were detected clearly. Pulsation period, rate of change of period with time, pulse fraction, pulse profile and energy spectra of the source were determined from these studies. During March 1995 observation, the x-ray pulse of GX 1+4 was found to be double-peaked compared to a single-peak pulse profile detected in December 1993. Details of these results are presented and their interpretation discussed in terms of the current accretion models of x-ray binaries.

  • High pressure X-ray diffraction study was carried out on a graphite to investigate its compressibility as well as any possible phase transition to the hexagonal diamond structure at room temperature. Energy dispersive X-ray diffraction method was introduced using a Mao-Bell type diamond anvil cell with Synchrotron Radiation. Polycrystalline sodium chloride was compressed together with graphite for the high pressure determinations. Because of the poor resolution of the X-ray diffraction pattern of graphite, its compressibility was estimated to be almost same as that of NaCl by graphite (002) X-ray diffraction peak only. An observation of any new peak from a possible hexagonal diamond phase seems very unplausible for its definite identification based on the present data. Alternative approaches such as an Wiggler Radiation source as well as a Large Volume high pressure apparatus will be necessary for the detailed studies on a graphite in future.
