We have successfully developed the KASI (Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute) Solar Imaging Spectrograph (KSIS), which has been originally upgraded from the KASI solar spectrograph that was able to record solar spectra for a given slit region and to inspect the response function of narrow band filters. A prototype KSIS was developed in 2004 by using a scanning mirror in front of the spectrograph slit and a SBIG ST-8XE CCD camera. Its main disadvantage is that it took a long time (about 13 minutes) to scan a whole active region. In this work, we have upgraded the KSIS by installing a much faster Dalsa 1M15 CCD camera, which gives a data acquisition time of about 2.5 minutes. The software for KSIS was also improved for the new CCD camera on the basis of component-based development method. We have successfully made a test observation for a simple and small active region (AR10910) using the improved KSIS system. Our observations show that H-alpha images for several wavelengths have typical features in a sunspot as well as a H-alpha centerline image is quite similar to a BBSO H-alpha image, demonstrating the capability of the KSIS system.

The Baptistina family is one of the typical young asteroid families with an age estimated to be about 140-320 Myrs old (Masiero et al. 2012); considered to have not enough time to experience a significant collisional and dynamical evolution since it was formed. Therefore, it may offer a unique insight into spin rate distribution of relatively fresh fragments and physical mechanism of a family break-up event. Observations of the Baptistina family asteroids were conducted during 111 nights from 2013 Oct. to 2015 Feb., using 0.5 m- to 2 m- class telescopes at 6 observatories in the northern hemisphere. We used CCD cameras on the Sobaeksan Optical Astronomy Observatory (SOAO) 0.6 m telescope on Mt. Sobaek, Korea, the Lemmonsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (LOAO) 1.0 m telescope on Mt. Lemmon, USA, the Tubitak Ulusal Gozlemevi (TUG) 1.0 m telescope in Bakirlitepe, Turkey, the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO) 1.8 m telescope on Mt. Bohyun, Korea, the McDonald Observatory 2.1 m Otto Struve Telescope on Mt. Locke, USA, and the National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand (NARIT) Observatory 2.4 m telescope on Mt. Doi Inthanon, Thailand. Here, we will present our preliminary results for lightcurve analyses of Baptistina family members.

근성점 운동을 하는 IQ Per의 극심 시각 관측을 2002년 11월과 12월에 걸쳐 4일간 VR파장 영역에서 수행하였다. 이 관측으로부터 4개의 새로운 극심시각을 결정하였다. 우리의 극심시각과 여러 문헌으로부터 수집 한 극심시각을 이용하여 IQ Per의 근성점 운동을 분석하였다. 우리가 구한 항성 주기 $P_{s}$와 근성점 운동 주기 U는 Degirmenci(1997)의 것보다 약 0.035초와 0.2년 약간 길게 각각 계산되었다. 이 논문에서 새로 구한 IQ Per의 근성점 운동 변수들은 Degirmenci(1997)가 결정한 변수들과 거의 일치하고 있다. 우리의 결과는 그가 관측으로 구한 IQ Per의 내부 밀도 상수 $k_{2obs}$ = 0.0038와 약5% 이내에서 관측치와 이론치가 일치한다는 그의 결론을 지지한다.

We present results of two-color VR photometry of the intermediate polar RXS J1803. The data were aquired using the Korean 1-m telescope located at Mt. Lemmon, USA. Different "high" and "low" luminosity states, similar to other intermediate polars, were discovered. No statistically significant variability of the color index with varying luminosity was detected. The orbital variability was found to be not statistically significant. Spin maxima timings were determined, as well as the photometric ephemeris for the time interval of our observations. The spin period variations, caused by interaction of the accretion structure with the rotating magnetic white dwarf, were also detected. These variations are of complicated character, and their study requires further observations. We determine the color transformation coefficients for our photometric systems, and improve on the secondary photometric standards.

We have been performing a wide-field photometric monitoring program, named SPVS (Short-Period Variability Survey), at the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO). The observation system consists of a small refracting telescope (D = 155 mm, f = 1050 mm) and a $2k{\times}3k$ CCD Camera. The field of view is $1.0^{\circ}{\times}1.5^{\circ}$. Detection limit is about V = 13 for short-period small amplitude variables such as ${\delta}$ Scuti-type pulsating stars, and about V = 15 for long-period large amplitude variables such as eclipsing binaries and RR Lyrae stars. The instrument is designed to be remote-controlled through internet. The primary purpose of this project is to search for variable objects in bright Galactic open clusters. We present results of test observations conducted towards NGC 7092.

V994 Her(ADS 11373 AB, HIP 90483) has been recently known as a quadruple system which consists of double eclipsing and double double-lined spectroscopic binaries (Lee et al. 2008). BV CCD photometric observations of the intricate star system were made during the observing seasons from 2007 to 2008 with the 35cm reflector of the Campus station of the Chungbuk National University Observatory. From the observations a total of 10 times of minimum lights were newly determined. All timings collected, including ours, were intensively analyzed to yield new interesting findings: 1) two eclipsing binaries with the orbital periods of 2.d08326 and 1.d42001 in V994 Her system show possibly apsidal motions with different apsidal periods of 46.y4 and 15.y3, and eccentricities of 0.058 and 0.082, respectively. 2) a light-time effect with a period of 0.y93 may be possible, implying that a third-body be revolving around the binary with the orbital period of 2.d08326.

The Eclipsing Binaries Minima (BIMA) Monitoring Project is a CCD-based photometric observational program initiated by Bosscha Observatory - Lembang, Indonesia in June 2012. Since December 2012 the National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand (NARIT) has joined the BIMA Project as the main partner. This project aims to build an open-database of eclipsing binary minima and to establish the orbital period of each system and its variations. The project is conducted on the basis of multisite monitoring observations of eclipsing binaries with magnitudes less than 19 mag. Differential photometry methods have been applied throughout the observations. Data reduction was performed using IRAF. The observations were carried out in BVRI bands using three different small telescopes situated in Indonesia, Thailand, and Chile. Computer programs have been developed for calculating the time of minima. To date, more than 140 eclipsing binaries have been observed. From them 71 minima have been determined. We present and discuss the O-C diagrams for some eclipsing binary systems.

본 연구는 보리수나무 잎 에탄올추출물의 피부와 관련된 생리활성을 보고하였다. 선행 연구에서 보리수나무 잎 에탄올 추출물의 정량 분석을 통해 갈산이 중요한 페놀 화합물임을 확인하였고 HepG2 간암 세포의 증식에 대한 억제 효과를 보고한 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 ${\alpha}$-멜라닌 세포 자극 호르몬으로 유도된 B16-F0 세포에서의 멜라닌 생성 및 타이로시나제 활성에 대한 보리수나무 잎 에탄올 추출물의 억제 효과를 측정하여 보리수나무 잎 에탄올 추출물이 피부 미백에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 또한 UVB가 조사된 CCD-986sk 세포를 사용하고, type I procollagen과 metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) 방출을 측정하여 보리수나무 잎 에탄올 추출물의 주름 개선 효과를 조사하였다. 보리수나무 잎 에탄올 추출물이 처리되지 않은 B16-F0 세포와 비교하였을 때 세포 내 멜라닌 생성을 유의적으로 감소시켰다는 것을 나타내었다($100{\mu}g/ml$에서 33.0% 억제). ${\alpha}$-멜라닌 세포 자극 호르몬으로 유도된 B16-F0 세포에서의 타이로시나제 활성은 보리수나무 잎 에탄올 추출물에 의해 감소되었다($100{\mu}g/ml$에서 47.8% 억제). 또한, 보리수나무 잎 에탄올 추출물을 처리하였을 때 UVB 조사 대조군에 비해 CCD-986sk 세포에서 용량 의존적으로 type I procollagen ($250{\mu}g/ml$에서 1.74배)의 생산을 증가시켰다. 또한, 보리수나무 잎 에탄올 추출물은 $10-500{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 UVB가 조사된 CCD-986sk 세포의 MMP-1 방출을 억제했다. 이상의 결과로부터, 보리수나무 잎 에탄올추출물이 피부미백 및 주름 생성 억제 활성을 나타내는 피부 건강에 유용한 식용 소재임을 확인하였다.

Many of the problems by using the microscope are related to the fact that the eyes of the surgeon must be continually fixed to the microscope eyepieces. In this paper, we describe a development of the stereoscopic monitoring system of the stereo microscope for reduced eyestrain or operator fatigue about the long time observations of the microscope. The system consists of the stereoscopic camera part, the stereoscopic image processor device and the polarized light stereoscopic monitor. The left and right images obtained form the two CCD cameras are the same as the eyepiece images. By use of the image processor, the polarized light stereoscopic monitor displayed a real-time stereo microscope images.
