With support from the K-GMT science program (PID: GN-2016B-Q-14), we conducted observations of active asteroid 354P/LINEAR (2010 A2) when it made its closest approach to Earth (i.e., the geocentric distance of 1.06 au on 2017 January 27-28). Taking advantage of the best observing geometry since the discovery, we obtained the first evidence for the rotational status of the largest fragment (~120 m in diameter), which was slowly rotating, that is, the rotational period of 11.36 hours. In addition, we succeed in direct imaging of 10 sub-fragments (~20 m in diameter or larger). Based on these new observational results, we conjecture that this active asteroid was created as a result of catastrophic collision among unknown asteroids. The details of this work are given in Astrophysical Journal Letters, 842, L23.

한국천문연구원은 GMT (Giant Magellan Telescope)의 부경 중의 하나인 FSM (Fast Steering Mirror)의 시험모델을 한국표준과학연구원, 광주과학기술원, 미국 NOAO와 협력하여 개발 중이다. FSM은 주로 반사경과 지지부, tip-tilt 부분으로 나누어질 수 있는데, 개념설계 이후 광축 지지부가 tip-tilt 기능도 겸하여 수행하는 것으로 설계변경되었다. 이 논문에서는 변경된 FSM의 구조를 파악하고 이에따른 시험모델의 개발 현황에 대하여 논한다.

This study was performed to verify the effect of modified live virus vaccine against canine parvovirus (CPV) infection. Serum hemagglutination inhibition (Hl) test, histopathological and immunohistochemical techniques and polymerase chain reaction were used. The results were as follows: 1. During the experimental terms after vaccination, serum Hl titer was stable. Geometric mean titer (GMT) after the 1st vaccination was 280. After virulent CPV was challenged, GMT was 1,306. 2. After challenge by virulent CPV, the vaccinated group was not shown clinical signs and gross and histopathological findings. 3. After challenge by virulent CPV, the vaccinated group was not detected viral antigens in the small intestine immunohistochemically. 4. After challenge by violent CPV, the vaccinated group was not shown virus shedding in feces. In conclusions the overall results confirmed that modified live virus vaccine was effective on prevention of canine parvovirus infection.

We proceed to develop the control software of GMACS, which is a wide-field, multi-object, moderate-resolution optical spectrograph for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). Flexure Compensation System (FCS) prototype is one of the electronics and mechanical prototypes for GMACS. In this poster, we present the software design for the FCS prototype by using the software system modeling language, SysML. We also show two development tools to control the prototype that communicates via EtherCAT: using TwinCAT and Visual C++ on Windows 10, and GMT Software Development Kit (SDK) and C++ on Linux. We discuss the way to design the GMACS control software, which would not depend on the development tools.

The Giant Magellan Telescope Organization (GMTO) is developing the GMT Software Development Kit (SDK) for the Observatory Control System (OCS). The SDK models a subsystem of the GMT using a Domain Specific Language (DSL) which can generate a skeleton code and validates the availability of the model automatically. The OCS includes a Device Control System (DCS) and all the devices are connected with the DCS via EtherCAT. The DCS has a component (Hardware Adapter) to communicate with EtherCAT slaves. In this presentation, we demonstrate the modeling process and describe the importance and usage plan of the SDK.

The software group in Giant Magellan Telescope Organization (GMTO) is developing the GMT Software Development Kit (SDK) for the device control and the telescope operations. The SDK is dived into the modeling and the operation defining. In the modeling process, Domain Specific Language (DSL) can validate the availability of a model and generate a skeleton code automatically. After the modeling, the developer can simply define the device operation. All devices are connected via EtherCAT, and the SDK simplifies the network connection. This presentation will give an overview of the modeling process and development examples using the GMT SDK.

The GMT-Consortium Large Earth Finder (G-CLEF) is a fiber-fed, optical band high dispersion echelle spectrograph that selected as the first light instrument for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). This G-CLEF has been designed to be a general- purpose echelle spectrograph with the precisional radial velocity (PRV) capability of 10 cm/sec as a goal. The preliminary design review (PDR) was held on April 8 to 10, 2015 and the scientific observations will be started in 2022 with four mirrors installed on GMT. We have been participating in this preliminary design study in flexure control camera (slit monitoring system), calibration lamp sources, dichroic assembly and the fabrication of the proto-Mangin Mirror. We present the design concept on the parts KASI undertaken, introducing the specifications and capabilities of G-CLEF.
