SPHEREx의 중요 임무 중 하나는 $0.75{\mu}m$와 $5{\mu}m$ 사이에서 $H_2O$, CO, $CO_2$, XCN, OCS, 그리고 $CH_3OH$와 같은 얼음 분자의 전천 탐사 스펙트럼을 제공하는 것이다. 이러한 얼음 분자는 성간분자운의 먼지 티끌 표면에서 생성되어 별 탄생의 필연적 산물이며, 행성이 형성되는 원시행성계원반에서 다양한 변화를 겪게 되고, 복잡한 유기분자를 합성하게 된다. 하지만 충분하지 않은 관측 자료로 인해, 얼음 분자의 진화에 대한 이해가 미약한 상태이다. 현재까지는 근적외선에서 충분히 밝은 100 여개의 배경별이나 원시성에 대해서만 얼음 스펙트럼을 관측할 수 있었다. SPHEREx를 이용한 고감도 전천 탐사 미션은 약 20,000 여개의 배경별과 원시성에 대해 얼음 분자 스펙트럼을 제공할 것이다. 이렇게 100 배 이상 늘어난 샘플 스펙트럼 수로 인해, 얼음 분자의 진화에 대해서 통계적으로 의미있는 연구가 가능해 질 것이다. 본 발표에서는 SPHEREx의 Ice Program을 소개하고, 기대되어지는 결과에 대해서 논의하고자 한다.

The present paper deals with the comparative study of resistance performance with refrigerated ice and synthetic ice according to the variation of hull form characteristics. The resistance test has been conducted in pack ice condition in each concentration condition. Stem angle has been chosen as main parameters for the variation of hull form characteristics. The correlation of performance between with the refrigerated ice and with the synthetic ice has been shown according to the variation for stem angles. The present study show the possibility of ice test in general towing tank with synthetic ice for the time-consuming research such as hull form optimization although that is confined in pack ice condition. The more parametric study for the properties of synthetic ice is expected to be conducted to have more close correspondence for the test results of refrigerated ice in near future.

This paper reports on experimental investigations of self propulsion performance with synthetic (model) ice and refrigerated ice, which were conducted in a typical towing tank and ice tank, respectively. The main purpose of this research was to find the correlation between the selfpropulsion performance with synthetic ice in a typical towing tank and that with refrigerated ice in an ice tank. The different stresses between the synthetic ice and refrigerated ice influenced the self propulsion performance due to different ice and propeller interactions. A further study on the ice property variation for a self propulsion performance comparison is to be conducted in the near future.

This research describes a framework to compare and analyze the icebreaker(Terry Fox) resistance in pack ice condition between with a refrigerated ice and a synthetic ice. Model tests with a refrigerated ice have been conducted at Institute for Ocean Technology (IOT/NRC) and the tests with a synthetic ice were conducted at Pusan National University towing tank. For the validation of further tests of measurement and accuracy, the open water tests were first carried out with same model ship to compare the test results of both Institutes. Two different size of the wax-type synthetic ice were used and tests were conducted in pack ice of three different concentration ice conditions. The test results show that the difference of resistance between with synthetic and with refrigerated ice becomes larger according to the increase of ship speed. Although the quantity of resistance difference is not so small in high speed range, the present study is predicted to be used as a useful correlation between synthetic and refrigerated ice.

This paper deals with the experimental works for the correlations of ice resistance for icebreaker with synthetic(model) ice in general towing tank and with refrigerated ice in ice tank. In order to find out the correlation, the density variation is mainly focused in the present study. The model of Terry-Fox ice breaker has been used for the present correlation study because many data are available to be compared. According to the increase of density, the correlation becomes better quantitatively as well as qualitatively. Other parametric studies such as an ice size, a friction coefficient, a bending moment, etc., are also expected to be carried out to have better correlation in a near future. This research could be the basis for the possibility of resistance test using a synthetic ice in a general towing tank instead of an expensive ice tank.

The present paper deals with characteristics of resistance performance according to the variation of synthetic ice thickness and hull form. The resistance test has been conducted with pack ice condition in Pusan National University towing tank. Waterline angle has been chosen as a main parameter for the variation of hull form characteristics, which is the most important factor especially in icebreaking cargo vessel. The serial comparisons of resistance test have been done with the variation of hull form parameter as well as with the different thickness of synthetic ice. The different trend of resistance performances with increasing of waterline angle has been shown at each synthetic ice thickness. The present test results is expected to be confirmed by comparing the test results in ice tank in the near future.

Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) bind to ice crystals and inhibit their growth. AFPs are essential for the survival of organisms living in subzero environments. Type I AFP (AFP37) isolated from winter flounder is an ${\alpha}$-helical peptide of 37 residues long. In this study, we attempted to develop short AFP fragments with higher activity and solubility. We designed and synthesized N-terminal 15 and 21 residue-long AFPs, designated AFP15 and 21. Also dimerized AFP15 and 21, designated dAFP15N and dAFP21N, respectively, were generated through disulfide bonds between peptides containing CGG residues added to the N-terminus of AFP15 and AFP21 (designated AFP15N and 21N). Their helical contents and antifreeze activities were assessed using circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and a nanoliter osmometer, respectively. The helical content of AFP15 AFP21, AFP15N, AFP21N, dAFP15N and dAFP21N was 47, 48, 23.8, 28, 49.1, and 52%, respectively compared to that of wild type AFP37; the antifreeze activity was 8.4, 9.3, 0.05, 5.6, 12.1, 11.2% respectively, compared to that of wild type AFP37. Contrary to our anticipation, the dimerized peptides showed almost the same antifreeze activity as their monomeric counterparts. These results indicate that the dimerized peptides behave as monomeric peptides due to the high rotational freedom of disulfide bonds connecting two monomeric peptides. The star-shaped ice crystals generated by the peptides also demonstrated weak interaction between ice and peptides.

The opening angle of the duct cap assembly during the operation of a refrigerator ice dispenser was evaluated by transient structural analysis, and an improved design to maximize the opening angle was obtained. The opening angle of the existing design was found to be 78% of the upper limit. Several design modifications were proposed and analyzed to examine the effects of the design factors on the opening angle. As a result of the design modifications, the opening angle was improved by changing the lever material to a material with a high elastic modulus, moving the position of the support to the motor side, or increasing the lever shaft diameter. Considering the manufacturing cost of the new design, the design modification changing only the lever material was found to be the best because it does not require a change in the structure of the ice dispenser case. In conclusion, the opening angle can be improved by up to 95% of the upper limit value if the lever material is changed to an aluminum alloy. The methods and results presented in this study were found to be of great help in designing the duct cap assembly structure to facilitate the discharge of ice.

일본 우주항공연구개발기구(Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, JAXA)는 2007년부터 2017년까지 달 탐사선 셀레네(Selenological and Engineering Explorer, SelEnE)가 관측한 데이터를 수집하고, 연구했다. JAXA는 지구 상층 대기에 존재하는 산소가 자기장의 꼬리 부분에 실려 달로 이동한다는 사실을 발견했다. 하지만 이 연구는 아직 진행 중이며 달의 산화 과정 규명에 추가 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 생성적 적대 신경망(Generative Adversarial Networks, GAN)으로 달 분화구의 영구 그림자 영역을 제거하고, 물과 얼음을 발견하여 선행 연구의 완성도를 향상하고자 한다. 실험에 사용할 모델은 CIPS(Conditionally Independent Pixel Synthesis)다. CIPS는 실제 같은 영상을 고해상도로 합성한다. 합성할 데이터의 최적인 가중치 초기화 및 파라미터 갱신 방법, 활성 함수 조합은 실험을 통해 확인한다. 필요에 따라 앙상블 학습을 할 수도 있다. 성능평가는 FID(Frechet Inception Distance), 정밀도, 재현율을 사용한다. 제안한 방법은 진행 중인 연구의 시간과 비용을 절약하고, 인과관계를 더욱 명확히 밝히는 데 도움 될 수 있다고 사료된다.
