3차원 디지털 스펙클 토모그래피를 개발하여 레이저 영상 신호로부터 비정상, 비대칭 부탄 유동의 밀도분포를 분석하였다. 이러한 유동 해석을 위해 3가지 각도에서 CCD 영상으로부터 스펙클의 이동 신호를 획득하여 유동이 없을 때와 있을 때의 스펙클 변화를 상호 상관법에 의해 계산하였다. 이 때 스펙클의 이동 신호는 유동의 밀도 구배에 따라 굴절각으로 변환될 수 있다. 그 굴절각을 적분하여 광선의 주름 변이를 얻고 이로부터 실시간 곱셈산술재건법(MART)을 이용하여 부탄의 3차원 밀도장 재건을 수행하였다.

We report results of the performance evaluation of a new hardware correlator in Korea, the Daejeon correlator, developed by the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) and the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ). We conduct Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations at 22 GHz with the Korean VLBI Network (KVN) in Korea and the VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry (VERA) in Japan, and correlated the aquired data with the Daejeon correlator. For evaluating the performance of the new hardware correlator, we compare the correlation outputs from the Daejeon correlator for KVN observations with those from a software correlator, the Distributed FX (DiFX). We investigate the correlated flux densities and brightness distributions of extragalactic compact radio sources. The comparison of the two correlator outputs shows that they are consistent with each other within < 8%, which is comparable with the amplitude calibration uncertainties of KVN observations at 22 GHz. We also find that the 8% difference in flux density is caused mainly by (a) the difference in the way of fringe phase tracking between the DiFX software correlator and the Daejeon hardware correlator, and (b) an unusual pattern (a double-layer pattern) of the amplitude correlation output from the Daejeon correlator. The visibility amplitude loss by the double-layer pattern is as small as 3%. We conclude that the new hardware correlator produces reasonable correlation outputs for continuum observations, which are consistent with the outputs from the DiFX software correlator.
