본 연구에서는 소형 X-밴드 이중편파 레이더의 수평반사도 (ZH), 차등반사도(ZDR), 교차상관계수(ρHV)의 RHI(range height indicator) 연직단면과 PPI (plan position indicator)의 고도각 경사거리(slant range) 빔의 프로파일 분석을 통하여 밝은 띠(bright band, BB)의 특성을 탐색하였다. 분석 결과, X-밴드 레이더의 이중편파 변수들을 이용하여 밝은 띠 영역을 명확히 탐지할 수 있었으며, 동시간대의 RHI 및 PPI 관측 자료를 이용한 이중적인 밝은 띠 영역을 탐색하여 그 결과가 일치함을 확인하였다. 이 결과를 토대로 현업에서 RHI 관측없이 PPI 볼륨관측만 수행하는 대형 강우레이더에도 본 연구의 PPI 고도각 경사거리에 의한 BB 탐색 방법을 적용함으로써 QPE (quantification of precipitation estimation)의 정확성을 향상시킬 수 있다.

CN and CH band strengths for ten new bright giants in the globular cluster M15 have been measured from archival spectra obtained with the Multiple Mirror Telescope. Using published indices for other bright M15 giants, a CN-CH band strength anticorrelation is found for bright red giants. However, stars that do not follow the CN-CH anticorrelation are also found. They seem to show a positive correlation between the two indices. Among them, all the AGB and HB stars of the sample are included. Stars I-38 and X6, which are located near the RGB fiducial line in the CMD, have low measured CH(G) indices compared with other RGB stars. Stars IV-38, S4, and S1, which are all near the RGB tip, have strong measured CH(G) indices. Therefore, most of their evolutionary states are suspected to be different from those of a normal single RGB star.

We perform seismological diagnostics of the physical parameters in umbral photospheres and G-band bright points. The technique is based on the theory of slow magneto-acoustic waves in a non-isothermally stratified photosphere with uniform vertical magnetic fields. For the seismology of sunspot umbrae, we calculate the weighted frequency of three-minute oscillations observed by SDO/HMI continuum and use it to estimate the Alfvn speed and plasma-beta, which range 7.5-10.5 km/s and 0.65-1.15, respectively. We identify and track bright points in the G-band movie by using a 3D region growing method. Then we apply the seismological diagnostics to the bright points in the Hinode/BFI Blue continuum. We will present the Alfvn speed and plasma-beta in the bright points.

A new algorithm for satellite microwave rainfall retrievals over the land of Taiwan using TMI (TRMM Microwave Imager) data on board TRMM (Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission) satellite is described in this study. The scattering index method (Grody, 1991) was accepted to develop a rainfall estimation algorithm and the measurements from Automatic Rainfall and Meteorological Telemetry System (ARMTS) were employed to evaluate the satellite rainfall retrievals. Based on the standard products of 2A25 derived from TRMM/PR data, the rainfall areas over Taiwan were divided into convective rainfall area and stratiform rainfall areas with/without bright band. The results of rainfall estimation from the division of rain type are compared with those without the division of rain type. It is shown that the mean rainfall difference for the convective rain type is reduced from -6.2mm/hr to 1.7mm/hr and for the stratiform rain type with bright band is decreased from 10.7 mm/hr to 2.1mm/hr. But it seems not significant improvement for the stratiform rain type without bright band.

Molecules always show broad absorption band envelopes, and this results from the vibrational properties of bonds. The width of an absorption band can have an important influence on the color of a dye. A narrow band imparts a bright, spectrally pure color to the dye, whereas a broad band can give the same hue, but with a much duller appearance. Typically, half-band widths of cyanine dyes are about 25nm compared to value of over 50nm for typical merocyanine dyes. Thus, cyanine dyes are exceptionally bright. The factors influencing the width of an absorption band can be understood with reference to the Morse curves. The width of the absorption band depends on how closely the bond order of the molecules in the first excited state resembles that in the ground state. We have quantitatively evaluated the "molecular structure-absorption band shape" relationship of dye molecules by means of Pariser-Parr-Pople Molecular Orbital Method(PPP-MO).

We present results of our R-band polarimetry of a bright-rimmed cloud, IC1396A (with BRC 36), associated with the H II region S131 and the cometary globule LDN 1616 to study their magnetic field geometry. The distances of these clouds have been reported to be ~ 750 pc and ~ 450 pc, respectively in the literature. The young open cluster Trumpler 37 in the vicinity of IC1396A and the high mass stars in the Orion belt near L1616 are found to be responsible for the structure of these clouds. We made polarimetry of foreground stars inferred from their distances measured by the Hipparcos satellite to subtract the foreground contribution to the observed polarization results. We discuss the optical polarimetric results and compare our findings with MHD simulations towards BRCs and CGs.

In an ordinary CT scan, a large number of projections with full field-of-view (FFOV) are necessary to reconstruct high resolution images. However, excessive x-ray dosage is a great concern in FFOV scan. Region-of-interest (ROI) CT or sparse-view CT is considered to be a solution to reduce x-ray dosage in CT scanning, but it suffers from bright-band artifacts or streak artifacts giving contrast anomaly in the reconstructed image. In this study, we propose an image reconstruction method to eliminate the bright-band artifacts and the streak artifacts simultaneously. In addition to the ROI scan for the interior projection data with relatively high sampling rate in the view direction, we get sparse-view exterior projection data with much lower sampling rate. Then, we reconstruct images by solving a constrained total variation (TV) minimization problem for the interior projection data, which is assisted by the exterior projection data in the compressed sensing (CS) framework. For the interior image reconstruction assisted by the exterior projection data, we implemented the proposed method which enforces dual data fidelity terms and a TV term. The proposed method has effectively suppressed the bright-band artifacts around the ROI boundary and the streak artifacts in the ROI image. We expect the proposed method can be used for low-dose CT scans based on limited x-ray exposure to a small ROI in the human body.

The infrared astronomy satellite AKARI/FIS (Far-Infrared Surveyor) performed all-sky survey in 4 Far-IR bands (50 - 200${\mu}m$ range). It observed around 94% of the whole sky twice or more with a higher spatial resolution and a wider wavelength coverage than that of previous all-sky mission, IRAS. The AKARI/FIS bright source catalogue ${\beta}-2$ is the second released version which included around 290,000 point sources. It provides us with more reliable position and flux information, and around 4 times larger number of sources compared with the first version of catalogue. The sensitivity limit at $90{\mu}m$ band is 0.6 Jy and the estimated flux uncertainty is 20-35% for bright sources. The catalogue will be open to public in this year after the improvement of accuracy, reliability and completeness.

A fluorescent equilibrium model for the 1-0 band of the A-X system of ${18}^{OH}$ has been constructed. Line positions and intensities have been calculated for possible future spectroscopic observations of these bands from space in order to derive ${18}^{O}/{16}^{O}$ ratios in comets. It is demonstrated that the strong lines of the 1-0 band can be observable for a moderately bright comet using a high resolution spectrometer with a reasonable exposure time.
