We report our measurements of the trigonometric distance and proper motion of IRAS 20056+3350, obtained from the annual parallax of $H_2O$ masers. Our distance of $D=4.69^{+0.65}_{-0.51}kpc$, which is 2.8 times larger than the near kinematic distance adopted in the literature, places IRAS 20056+3350 at the leading tip of the Local arm and proximal to the Solar circle. We estimated the proper motion of IRAS 20056+3350 to be (${\mu}_{\alpha}cos{\delta}$, ${\mu}_{\delta}$) = ($-2.62{\pm}0.33$, $-5.65{\pm}0.52$) $mas\;yr^{-1}$ from the group motion of $H_2O$ masers, and use our results to estimate the angular velocity of Galactic rotation at the Galactocentric distance of the Sun, ${\Omega}_0=29.75{\pm}2.29km\;s^{-1}kpc^{-1}$, which is consistent with the values obtained for other tangent points and Solar circle objects.

Not all stars in the Universe are gravitationally bounded to galaxies. Since first discovered in 1951, observations have revealed that a significant fraction of stars fills the space between galaxies in local (low-redshift) galaxy clusters, observed as diffuse intracluster light (ICL). Theoretical models provide mechanisms for the production of intracluster stars as tidally stripped material or debris generated through numerous galaxy interactions during the hierarchical growth of the galaxy cluster. These mechanisms predict that most intracluster stars in local galaxy clusters are long-accumulated material since z~1. However, there is no observational evidence to verify this prediction. Here we report observations of abundant ICL for a massive (above $10^{14}$ solar masses) galaxy cluster at a redshift of z=1.24, when the Universe was 5 billion years old. We found that more than 10 per cent of the total light of the cluster is contributed by the diffuse ICL out to 110 kpc from the center of the cluster, comparable to 5-20 per cent in local, massive galaxy cluster. Furthermore, we found that the colour of the brightest cluster galaxy located in the core of the cluster is consistent with that of the ICL out to 200 kpc. Our results demonstrate that the majority of the intracluster stars present in the local Universe, contrary to most previous theoretical and observational studies, were built up during a short period and early (z>1) in the history of the Virgo-like massive galaxy cluster formation, and might be concurrent with the formation of the brightest cluster galaxy.

We present multi-color, high-cadence photometric study of a distant SU UMa-type dwarf nova KSP-OT-201611a discovered by the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) Supernova Program (KSP). From October 2016 to May 2017, two outbursts with an interval of approximately 90 days were detected in the BV I-bands. The shapes and amplitudes of the outbursts reveal the nature of KSP-OT-201611a to be a SU UMa-type dwarf nova of outside-in origin with a superhump and an inferred orbital period of 1.69 h. The two observed bursts show a distinctively different color evolutions during the bursts due most likely to the viscosity different in accretion disk between them. The observed quiescent magnitudes and properties of the source during the outbursts indicate that it is at a large distance (~7.3 kpc) and height (~1.7 kpc) from the Galactic disk, possibly belonging to the group of poorly-studied Population II dwarf novae. The continuous monitoring of this source may offer a rare opportunity to study a PopII dwarf nova.

We present a BV I optical photometric study of the old open cluster Ruprecht 6 using the data obtained with the SMARTS 1.0 m telescope at the CTIO, Chile. Its color-magnitude diagrams show the clear existence of the main-sequence stars, whose turn-off point is located around $V{\approx}18.45mag$ and $B-V{\approx}0.85mag$. Three red clump (RC) stars are identified at V = 16.00 mag, I = 14.41 mag and B - V = 1.35 mag. From the mean $K_s-band$ magnitude of RC stars ($K_s=12.39{\pm}0.21mag$) in Ruprecht 6 from 2MASS photometry and the known absolute magnitudes of the RC stars ($M_{K_S}=-1.595{\pm}0.025mag$), we obtain the distance modulus to Ruprecht 6 of $(m-M)_0=13.84{\pm}0.21mag$ ($d=5.86{\pm}0.60kpc$). From the ($J-K_s$) and (B - V ) colors of the RC stars, comparison of the (B - V ) and (V - I) colors of the bright stars in Ruprecht 6 with those of the intrinsic colors of dwarf and giant stars, and the PARSEC isochrone fittings, we derive the reddening values of E(B - V ) = 0.42 mag and E(V - I) = 0.60 mag. Using the PARSEC isochrone fittings onto the color-magnitude diagrams, we estimate the age and metallicity to be: $log(t)=9.50{\pm}0.10(t=3.16{\pm}0.82Gyr)$ and $[Fe/H]=-0.42{\pm}0.04dex$. We present the Galactocentric radial metallicity gradient analysis for old (age > 1 Gyr) open clusters of the Dias et al. catalog, which likely follow a single relation of $[Fe/H]=(-0.034{\pm}0.007)R_{GC}+(0.190{\pm}0.080)$ (rms = 0.201) for the whole radial range or a dual relation of $[Fe/H]=(-0.077{\pm}0.017)R_{GC}+(0.609{\pm}0.161)$ (rms = 0.152) and constant ([Fe/H] ~ -0.3 dex) value, inside and outside of RGC ~ 12 kpc, respectively. The metallicity and Galactocentric radius ($13.28{\pm}0.54kpc$) of Ruprecht 6 obtained in this study seem to be consistent with both of the relations.

Despite the fact that the dissolution test can serve as an effective tool for drug quality control and prediction of in vivo drug performance, there are a number of drugs with no established dissolution specifications because they were developed quite a long time ago. Under this circumstances, KFDA started the new project that establishes dissolution method and specifications for drugs with no dissolution specifications listed in the Korea Pharmaceutical Codex (KPC). This project aims for promoting the appropriate management of oral solid dosage forms. Seoul regional KFDA selected 2 items, Nicametate citrate tablet and Norfloxacin capsule, for establishing dissolution specifications. We went through the following procedures to develop the dissolution method and specifications: (1) Validation of dissolution test equipment, (2) Purchase of test drugs, (3) Preliminary test with one of the test products (1 lot), (4) Validation of analysis methods (3 lots), (5) Final tests and cross tests among other laboratory to establish dissolution specifications, (6) Additional test with the other test drugs. The outcome of this study will be reflected in revision of the KPC. It is believed that the quality control and evaluation of oral solid dosage forms listed in KPC will be advanced with the revision which adds additional dissolution test and specifications for the drugs with no established dissolution specifications.

본 연구는 자생식물 추출물을 첨가하여 개발된 항균용기(KAPP)에 저장된 김치의 발효 및 품질특성을 비교하였다. 실험에 사용된 저장용기는 개발된 항균용기(KAPP)와 기존 시판 용기인 폴리프로필렌 용기(KPP), 스테인레스 스틸 용기(KST), 포세린 용기(KPC)로 총 4가지를 사용하였다. 김치를 저장하는 동안 총균수의 증가와 감소는 4가지 용기 모두 비슷했으나 KAPP의 경우 가장 낮은 증가를 보였고, 대장균군의 경우에는 저장 15일 이후부터 50일까지 가장 낮은 수준을 유지하는 것으로 나타났다. Leuconostoc spp. 과 Lactobicillus spp.는 저장 15일까지 모든 실험군에서 급격한 증가를 보인 후 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으나 특히 KAPP 용기에 저장된 김치는 나머지 3가지 저장 용기에 비해 높은 수준을 유지하는 것으로 측정되었다. 저장 40일의 김치를 관능 검사한 결과 KAPP 용기에 저장된 김치가 시판 KPP, KST, KPC 용기의 김치에 비하여 전반적으로 외관, 냄새, 맛 및 전반적인 기호도 항목에서 관능적인 점수가 높았다. 이를 통해 자생식물의 추출물을 첨가하여 개발한 항균용기가 시판 3가지 저장 용기와 비교했을 때 젖산발효에 효과적임을 확인하였으며 관능적인 면에서도 우수함을 확인하였다.

We showed that magnetic fields are generated in the plasma which have the temperature inhomogeneities. The mechanism is the same as the Weibel instability because the velocity distribution functions are at non-equilibrium and anisotropic under the temperature gradients. The growth timescale is much shorter than the dynamical time of structure formation. The coherence length of magnetic fields at the saturated time is much shorter than kpc scale and then, at nonlinear phase, become longer by inverse-cascade process. We report the application of our results to clusters of galaxies, not including hydrodynamic effects.

We derived initial mass functions (IMF) of massive stars in three different regions of spiral arms within 2.5kpc from the sun. The derived IMF slope $\beta$ of Local arm stars is found to be $-2.09{\sim}-2.06$, very close to that of Bisiacchi et al. (1983). For Sagittarius-Carina arm stars $\beta$ ranges from -1.77 to - 1.72 which is close to that of overall stars given by Germany et al. (1982). Possible causes inducing the regional difference in IMFs are discussed.
