These experiments were carried out to examine efficacy of soil solarization for control of pink root disease by means of mulching with transparent polyethylene sheets in the hot season. The effects of soil solarization on incidence of pink-root disease caused by Pyrenochaeta terrestris and on onion growth and on populations of soil fungi were investigated. Solarization was dramatically effective in reducing pink root incidence in onion seedling and harvested onion bulb. A 30-day and 40-day solarization treatment significantly improved seedling survival and increased yield of 'Changnyeong-deago' onion while decreasing incidence of pink root. Populations of soil fungi from fields planted to onion were assayed on selective media. Solarization treatment was effective in reducing populations of P. terrestris, Pythium spp., and Rhizoctonia sp. in soil. Increase of yield of onion bulbs was associated with control of soil-borne pathogenic fungi. Soil solarization had beneficial effects on yield, bulb diameter, or incidence of pink root.

Field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of soil solarization at the Nonsan Strawberry Experiment Station, Korea in 2006 and 2008. In in vitro tests, exposure times to achieve an $LD_{100}$ of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fragariae were 6.6 days and 5.1 days at $45^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. A 100% lethal temperature was $46.7{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$ for the same fungus. For field trials, solarization was conducted during the summer season using polyethylene mulch in a plastic house. The organic matter+calcium cyanamide+solarization treatment increased pH, organic matter, and calcium content compared to those before treatment in soil analysis, but no effect had an urea+solarization treatment. The temperatures at 10 cm depth were different in each treatment and the highest temperature was recorded from July 30 to August 10. The average temperature in organic matter+calcium cyanamide+solarization treatment at 10 cm depth was $3{\sim}4^{\circ}C$ higher than that in all the other treatments. All solarization treatments reduced the soil population of F. oxysporum f. sp. fragariae at 100% in 2008 relative to the non-treated control. All solarization treatments reduced Fusarium wilt incidence to 0% in 2006 and 2008. The effect of organic matter+calcium cyanamide+solarization against F. oxysporum f. sp. fragariae indicates that there may be future alternatives to traditional solarization for disease control as well as reducing the time needed.

This study was carried out to find out the possibility of suppressing the root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) of vegetable crops in vinyl house by soil solarization between crop seasons at Suweon in August, 1986. Soils in vinyl house were sterilized by polyethylene film of 0.03 mm thick with and without inner tunnel within a house(single and double layer solarization), and soil temperatures and nematode densities at 5, 15 and 30cm soil depth were recorded. Rootknot nematodes in soil contained in a vinyl bag were completely killed within 48hr at $40^{\circ}C$ in an incubator. With double layer treatment, the highest temperatures were $48.7^{\circ}C$ at 15cm and $45.2^{\circ}C$ at 30cm soil depth when outdoor temperature was $30^{\circ}C$, and the lethal temperature above $40^{\circ}C$ was recorded for 17 days with 7hr per day at 5cm soil depth from Aug 1 to Aug 31. Due to the increased temperature, root-knot nematode densitiy was suprressed 96,74 and 54% with sigle layer solarization and 100,99 and 98% with double layer solarization at 5,15 and 30cm soil depth, respectively. It is concluded that double layer solarization during hot summer will provide a sufficient level of suppresson on root-knot nematodes remnant in the soil of vegetable crops in vinyl house.

The relationship between the addition of Sb$_2$O$_3$ and the color difference by solarization in photosensitive glasses was investigated. Glasses containing CeO$_2$ and Sb$_2$O$_3$ simultaneously and glasses with only CeO$_2$ were changed reddish and yellowish respectively after exposing to ultra violet ray. Color difference between compositions was represented by dominant wavelength and purity. Since, in glasses containing CeO$_2$ and Sb$_2$O$_3$ simultaneously, Sb$_2$O$_3$ as reduction agent affected Ce$^3+$ ions to increase in glass and more Ce$^4+$ ions were induced than in glasses with only CeO$_2$ during UV irradiation, more electrons released by photo-ionization, which were color centers, were trapped by Ce$^4+$. In conclusion, the introduction of Sb$_2$O$_3$ to photosensitive glasses with CeO$_2$ resulted in the change of color center concentration in glasses and prevented the solarization of photosensitive glasses with CeO$_2$.

Background: Root diseases caused by Cylindrocarpon destructans and Fusarium solani decrease the yield and quality of ginseng. Cylindrocarpon root rot is a major disease caused by replant failure in ginseng fields. Methods and Results: Solarization of infested greenhouse soil was carried out during the summer season after applying green manure (Sudan grass) and Calcium Cyanamide (CC) on the soil. Mycelium and conidia of C. destructans died at $40^{\circ}C$ after 15 h, but they did not die at $35^{\circ}C$ after 15 h. They also died after keeping the soil at $40^{\circ}C$ for 2 h daily for 9 days, and at $45^{\circ}C$ for 8 days, but they did not die at $38^{\circ}C$ for 9 days. Maximum soil temperature was $55.4^{\circ}C$ at 5 cm depth, $48.7^{\circ}C$ at 10 cm, $44.7^{\circ}C$ at 15 cm, $42.5^{\circ}C$ at 20 cm, and $31.9^{\circ}C$ at 30 cm by incorporating green manure into the soil and using solarization. Solarization using green manure mixed with CC was the most effective in decreasing soil-borne pathogens of 2-year-old ginseng. However, the addition of CC decreased the root weight due to the increase in EC and $NO_3-N$. Conclusions: Soil disinfection using green manure and solarization in a greenhouse environment was effective in inhibiting root rot, however, it did not completely kill the soil-borne pathogens.

This study was conducted to effect promotion of fall potato growth in the place which green manual crops had been previously cultivated, crushed and tilled and polyethylene transparent vinyl had been mulched from Aug. 5 to Aug. 29 in 1997. The maximum temperature of below-ground at the depth of 10cm was $42^{\circ}C$ during the mulching period, and the pH and the organic compound content of soil was very increased by the cultivation of green manual crops and the mulching of polyethylene transparent vinyl. The total yields of green manual crops which had been previously cultivated were as the following orders; the hybrid of sudan grass, soybean, alfalfa, otherwise, fresh weight of stems and the tuber yield of fall potato were significantly affected in the plot of soybean + fall potato after the soil solarization with the mulching. As these results, it was possible to improve crops growth and to sterilize soil by the mulching treatment of polyethylene vinyl after cultivation of green manual crops during the high temperature of the summer season.

The effects of solarization on the suppression of soilborne plant pathogen and the growth promotion of cucumber plants were examined in artificially infested soil by vinyl mulching and not mulching from July 25 to August 25, 1983. During the solarization period, the highest temperatures were $58^{\circ}C,\;45^{\circ}C,\;and\;42^{\circ}C$, at 5cm, 15cm, and 25cm of soil depth respectively. The inoculum of cucumber wilt pathogen, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum, was mixed with soil 30cm deep and saturated with water. The pathogen was completely killed after 30dys of solarization in 5cm soil depth and 98 percent of inoculum was eliminated in 15cm soil depth. But the survival rate of the fungi in 25cm soil depth of solarized plot did not show significant differences compared with those in nontreated plot in 5cm and 15cm depth. Although some of the pathogenic fungi might survive from solarized soil in 15cm and 25cm depth, the ability of microconidia production was reduced significantly The number of microconidia grown on Komada's medium in isolates the primary colonies from solarized soil was less than that in isolates from nontreated soil approximately by one fourth. The first subcultured solates from the solarized soil grown on potato dextrose agar also produced a small amount of microc. onidia compare with that of subcultured isolates from nontreated soil. Cucumber seedlings planted in the soil collected from solarized plot grew much better than that in the soil from nontreated plot at any of soil loved, especially in 5cm of soil depth. And the fruits harvested from cucumber plants grown in the solarized plot were more in number and leavier in weight than that from nontreated plot. Besides the typical symptom development, significant growth suppression wvas recognized with increase of inoculum density of F. oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum at early stage of cucumber seedlings in steam sterilized soil.

This paper is designed to show the relationship between the Daesoon Principle and the recent theories like transpersonal psychology(TP) and predicate logic. According to TP there are 3 categories and 8 elements inside of not only human consciousness but civilization; three are pre-ego, ego, trans-ego, and eight are Uroboros, Typhon, Greater Mother, solarization, and repetition of the previous fours. The former is called, for Ken Wilber, the Average mode and the latter, the Advanced mode. I think that Daesoon thought including general Korean National religions belongs to the Advanced mode. I applied the predicate logic or paradoxical logic to understand of the Harmony of God and Man as well as Correspondence of Yin with Yang. The paradoxical logic has been not acceptable through two thousands years in the western tradition. I call the paradoxical logic the E type logic in this paper. The E type logic is most suitable logic for apprehending the Daesoon philosophy to a large extent. Finally my paper may contribute to the globalization of Daesoon mind system.

The laser parameters such as a population inversion density, a stimulated emission cross section and loss factor in the glass laser amplifier medium were experimentally determined in order to analyse the properties of laser amplification. Using these parameters, the rate equations were approximately solved and the properties of laser amplification were analysed. An experiment of two-stage amplifier of Q-switching laser pulse was performed and the maximum output power was 1.1 GW, 33J. The several problems such as a laser solarization and a laser coupling in laser amplification were resolved.
