Zinc complexes with Bis[2-(o-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazolato ligands (ZnPBS-0) and Bis[2- (o-hydroxynaphthyl) benzothiazolato ligands (ZnPBS-05) were synthesized, and luminescent properties of these materials were investigated. The emission band found that it strongly depends on the molecular structure of introduced ligand and was tuned from 525 nm to 535 nm by changing the ligand structures. Spreading of the ${\pi}-conjugation$ in 2-(o-hydroxyphenyl) group gives rise to a blue shift. On the other hand, spreading of the ${\pi}-conjugation$ in benzothiazole groups leads to a red shift. The EL properties also showed good consistency with their differences of ligand structure. Bright-blue EL emission with a maximum luminance of 8300 $cd/m^{2}$ at 11V was obtained from the organic light - emitting diodes (OLEDs) using ZnPBS-0 as emitting layer. It was also found that the newly synthesized materials were suitable to be used as emitting materials in organic EL device.

We have been carrying out near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy as well as [Fe II] narrow band imaging observations of Cassiopeia A supernova remnant (SNR). In this presentation, we describe the spectral classification of the iron knots around the SNR. From eight long-slit spectroscopic observations for the iron-bright shell, we identified a total of 61 iron knots making use of a clump-finding algorithm, and performed principal component analysis in an attempt to spectrally classify the iron knots. Three major components have emerged from the analysis; (1) Iron-rich, (2) Helium-rich, and (3) Sulfur-rich groups. The Helium-rich knots have low radial velocities (${\mid}v_r{\mid}$ < 100 km/s) and radiate strong He I and [Fe II] lines, that match well with Quasi-Stationary Flocculi (QSFs) of circumstellar medium, while the Sulfur-rich knots show strong lines of oxygen burning materials with large radial velocity up to +2000 km/s, which imply that they are supernova ejecta (i.e. Fast-Moving Knots). The Iron-rich knots have intermediate characteristics; large velocity with QSF-like spectra. We suggest that the Iron-rich knots are missing "pure" iron materials ejected from the inner most region of the progenitor and now encountering the reverse shock.

Star formation in galaxies is one of the key factors in galaxy evolution. It is believed that star formation is triggered and enhanced by mergers among galaxies or secular evolution. However, how much these two mechanisms contribute on star formation is not well known yet. Recently, many other studies show observational evidences of faint merger features(tidal tails, stellar streams) around nearby galaxies with deep optical imaging. This study aims to investigate the fraction of star forming galaxies exhibiting faint features to total galaxies. We are analyzing samples of 76 star forming galaxies (NUV < -18) to find merger features from stacked B, R band frames taken at Maidanak 1.5m, McDonald 2.1m telescope and g, r frames from Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) MegaCam archival data. With the fraction, we can expect to know the contribution of mergers on star formation to galaxies.

Satellite imagery may contain large regions covered with atmospheric aerosol. A highresolution satellite imagery affected by non-homogenous aerosol cover should be processed for land cover study and perform the radiometric calibration that will allow its future application for Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT) data. In this study, aerosol signal was separated from high resolution satellite data based on the reflectance separation method. Since aerosol removal has a good sensitivity over bright surface such as man-made targets, aerosol optical thickness (AOT) retrieval algorithm could be used. AOT retrieval using Look-up table (LUT) approach for utilizing the transformed image to radiometrically compensate visible band imagery is processed and tested in the correction of satellite scenery. Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), EO-l/HYPERION data have been used for aerosol correction and AOT retrieval with different spatial resolution. Results show that an application of the aerosol detection for HYPERION data yields successive aerosol separation from imagery and AOT maps are consistent with MODIS AOT map.

인간의 감성에 직접적인 영향과 자극을 주는 색상자극에 대한 생체반응을 정량적으로 분석하기 위하여 3가지 색상 자극(Bright Yellow Red (BYR), Deep Green Yellow (DGY), Vivid Blue (VB))에 대한 뇌파 생리선호(Electroencephalography, EEG)와 선호도와의 상관관계를 연구하였다. 뇌파 분석을 통해 얻은 생체신호는 일반적인 색상의 이미지와 밀접한 상관관계가 있었다. 색온도가 낮을수록 뇌가 활성화 되었고(BYR ${\geq}$ DGY > VB), 좌뇌보다 우뇌가 더 큰 생체반응을 보였다. 전체적으로 주파수 별 뇌파값은 베타파${\geq}$세타파, 알파파> 감마파의 순이었다. 색온도가 낮을수록 Beta파의 뇌파 power 증가(BYR ${\geq}$ DGY > VB)하였고, 그러고 나머지 파(세타파, 베타파, 감마파)의 경우에는 색온도가 낮을수록 이들 주파수의 뇌파 power가 증가(BYR ${\geq}$ DGY > VB)하였다. 색상별 선호도와 뇌의 활성화의 상관관계는 색상에 대한 선호도가 높을수록 특정 주파수대의 뇌파가 활성화되었다. 선호도에 따른 뇌파반응은 좌 우뇌간에 유사한 생리적 반응을 보였으나, 후두부 보다는, 전두부에서 뚜렷한 상관관계를 보였다. 이러한 결과는 선호도가 높은 색상자극을 통해 특정 주파수 영역의 뇌파를 활성화가 가능하며, 색을 이용하는 다양한 분야(뷰티산업, 인테리어, 색채치료, 의상 등)에 적용가능성이 높다는 것을 의미한다.

To assess the functional structure of prepro-melanin-concentrating hormone (pMCH), we isolated and cloned pMCH (of-pMCH) mRNA from the brain of the olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, and compared its amino acid sequence with those from other animals. In addition, to examine whether activation of the brain of-pMCH gene is influenced by background color, density, and feeding, we compared pMCH mRNA activities against different background colors (bright and dark) and at different densities (100% PCA and 200% PCA). To examine whether the pMCH gene is related with malpigmentation of blind-side skin and appetite, we compared pMCH gene expression between ordinary and hypermelanic flounders, and between feeding and fasting flounders. The of-pMCH cDNA was 405 bp in the open reading frame [ORF] and encoded a protein of 135 amino acids; MCH was 51 bp in length and encoded a protein of 17 amino acids. An obvious single band of the expected size was obtained from the brain and pituitary by RT-PCR. In addition, of-pMCH gene activity was significantly higher in the bright background only at low density (< 100% PCA) making the ocular skin of fish whitening, and in ordinary fish. However, the gene activity was significantly decreased in dark background, at high density (>200% PCA), and in hypermelano fish. These results suggest that skin whitening camouflage of the flounder is induced by high MCH gene activity, and the density disturbs the function of background color in the physiological color change. Moreover, our data suggest that a low level of MCH gene activity may be related to malpigmentation of the blind-side skin. In feeding, although pMCH gene activity was significantly increased by feeding in the white background, the pMCH gene activity in the dark background was not influenced by feeding, indicating that the MCH gene activity increased by feeding can be offset by dark background color, or is unaffected by appetite. In conclusion, this study showed that MCH gene expression is related to ocular-skin whitening camouflage and blind-skin hypermelanosis, and is influenced by background color and density.

The SPICA (SPace Infrared Telescope for Cosmology & Astrophysics) project is a next-generation infrared space telescope optimized for mid- and far-infrared observation with a cryogenically cooled 3m-class telescope. The focal plane instruments onboard SPICA will enable us to resolve many astronomical key issues from the formation and evolution of galaxies to the planetary formation. The FPC-S (Focal Plane Camera - Sciecne) is a near-infrared instrument proposed by Korea as an international collaboration. Owing to the capability of both low-resolution imaging spectroscopy and wide-band imaging with a field of view of $5^{\prime}{\times}5^{\prime}$, it has large throughput as well as high sensitivity for diffuse light compared with JWST. In order to strengthen advantages of the FPC-S, we propose the studies of probing population III stars by the measurement of cosmic near-infrared background radiation and the star formation history at high redshift by the discoveries of active star-forming galaxies. In addition to the major scientific targets, to survey large area opens a new parameter space to investigate the deep Universe. The good survey capability in the parallel imaging mode allows us to study the rare, bright objects such as quasars, bright star-forming galaxies in the early Universe as a way to understand the formation of the first objects in the Universe, and ultra-cool brown dwarfs. Observations in the warm mission will give us a unique chance to detect high-z supernovae, ices in young stellar objects (YSOs) even with low mass, the $3.3{\mu}$ feature of shocked circumstance in supernova remnants. Here, we report the current status of SPICA/FPC project and its extragalactic sciences.

$Ly{\alpha}$ nebulae, or "$Ly{\alpha}$ blobs", are extended (~100 kpc), bright (L[$Ly{\alpha}$] ~ 1044 erg/s) clouds of $Ly{\alpha}$-emitting gas. The origin of the $Ly{\alpha}$ emission remains unknown, but recent theoretical work suggests that measuring the polarization could discriminate among powering mechanisms. we will discuss current status of $Ly{\alpha}$ polarization observations at high-redshift and our on-going survey program. We will present the first narrow-band, imaging polarimetry of a $Ly{\alpha}$ blob, B3 J2330+3927 at z=3.09, with an embedded, radio-loud AGN (C. You et al. in prep.). The AGN lies near the blob's $Ly{\alpha}$ emission peak and its radio lobes align roughly with the blob's semi-major axis. With the SPOL polarimeter on the MMT telescope, we map the polarization in a grid of circular apertures of radius 0.6" (4.4 kpc), detecting a significant (>$2{\sigma}$) polarization fraction P% in 10 apertures and achieving strong upper-limits (as low as 2%) elsewhere. The degree of the polarization map increases from P% ~ 5% at ~5 kpc from the blob center to ~20% at the outer part (~30 kpc). The detections are distributed asymmetrically, roughly along the blob's major axis. The polarization angles (${\Theta}$) are mostly perpendicular to this axis. These results are consistent with the picture that $Ly{\alpha}$ photons produced at the AGN (or the host galaxy) are resonantly scattered away from the center. Higher polarization fraction on the radio jet suggests that the gas is more optically thin along the jet than the off-axis region.

Using the InfraRed Camera (IRC) on board the infrared astronomical satellite AKARI we study the ${3.3{\mu}m}$ polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) feature and its connection to active galactic nucleus (AGN) properties for a sample of 54 hard X-ray selected bright AGN, including both Seyfert 1 and Seyfert 2 type objects. The sample is selected from the 9-month Swift/BAT survey in the 14-195 keV band and all of the sources have known neutral hydrogen column densities ($N_H$). The ${3.3{\mu}m}$ PAH luminosity ($L_{3.3{\mu}m}$) is used as a proxy for star-formation (SF) activity and hard X-ray luminosity ($L_{14-195keV}$) as an indicator of the AGN power. We explore for possible difference of SF activity between type 1 (un-absorbed) and type 2 (absorbed) AGN. We use several statistical analyses taking the upper-limits of the PAH lines into account utilizing survival analysis methods. The results of our log($L_{14-195keV}$) versus log($L_{3.3{\mu}m}$) regression shows a positive correlation and the slope for the type 1/unobscured AGN is steeper than that of type 2/obscured AGN at a $3{\sigma}$ level. Also our analysis shows that the circum-nuclear SF is more enhanced in type 2/absorbed AGN than type 1/un-absorbed AGN for low $L_{14-195keV}$ luminosity/low Eddington ratio AGN, while there is no significant dependence of SF activity on the AGN type in the high $L_{14-195keV}$ luminosities/Eddington ratios.

The preparation and the photophysics of organometallic Pt(II) and Ir(III) complexes with 6-ch1oro-3-phenylpyridazine (H6Clppdz) are reported. $K_2$PtCl$_4$ and IrCl$_3$ㆍn$H_{2}O$ cleanly cyclometalate with H6Clppdz, forming the corresponding chloro-bridged dimers, (6Clppdz)Pt($\mu$-Cl)$_2$Pt(6Clppdz) and (6Clppdz)$_2$Ir($\mu$-Cl)$_2$Ir(6Clppdz)$_2$ in good yield. These chloro-bridged dimers are cleaved with acetylacetone (Hacac) to give the corresponding monomer, (6Clppdz)Pt(acac) and (6Clppdz)$_2$ Ir(acac), respectively. Both complexes show bright orange luminescence at room temperature and the emission wavelengths are different depending on the metal and the structure of complexes. (6Clppdz)Pt(acac) shows two sharp emission bands in shorter wavelength ($\lambda$$_{em}$=541 and 580 nm), while (6Clppdz)$_2$ Ir(acac) shows a broad emission band in longer wavelength ($\lambda$$_{em}$=615 nm). Strong spinorbit coupling due to the heavy metal atom allows for the formally forbidden mixing of the $^1$MLCT with the $^3$MLCT and $^3$$\pi$-$\pi$$^{*}$ states.
