천문유초(天支類抄)는 조선시대 대표적인 천문서적으로 세종대(世宗代) 천문학자 이순지(李純之 \ulcorner-1465)가 편집하였다. 우리는 이 책의 첫 부분에서 지금까지 잘 알려지지 않은 28수(宿) 별자리를 사신-동물모양(이하 '사신동물천문도')으로 표현한 자료를 찾아 연구하였다. 사신동물천문도(四神動物天文圖)는 사방으로 나누어진 네 개의 별자리를 사신으로 잘 알려진 동-창룡(蒼龍), 서-백호(白虎), 남-주작(朱崔)그리고 북-현무(亥武)의 모습으로 표현하고 있다. 일반적인 사신과 달리 특이한 것은 백호 옆에 동양의 전설 속 동물인 기린(離離)이 같이 표현되어 있다. 각각의 동물들은 동양의 전통적 별자리 표현법인 28윤의 2 ~ 7숙의 별자리를 통해 표현되어 있다. 조선시대의 대표적 천문도인 천상열차분야지도(天象列次分野之圖)의 논설(論說)에도 나와 있듯이 고구려는 조선과 천문학적으로 많은 연관성을 가지고 있는데, 그 대표적인 것이 고구려 무덤 벽화이다. 이 벽화에 많은 별, 별자리와 함께 천문유초에서 설명하고 있는 사신동물들도 그려져 있음은 이미 고구려 시대에도 하늘을 사신동물 별자리로 보았음을 추정할 수 있다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 천상열차분야지도의 28寫와 고구려 무덤 벽화에 그려져 있는 사신과 기린을 이용해 철문유초에서 설명하고 있는 사신동물천문도도 형상화시켜 보았다.

Among the AKARI all-sky survey data, the $9{\mu}m$ diffuse map is crucial to study the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission features on large spatial scales, while the $18{\mu}m$ map is useful to trace hot dust emission. To utilize these advantages, we have improved the AKARI mid-infrared (MIR) all-sky survey diffuse maps. For example, we have established special methods to remove the effects of the ionizing radiation in the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) and of the scattered light from the moon. Using improved diffuse map data, we study the properties of PAHs and dust in the Galactic center region associated with high-energy phenomena.

Clear sky indices were estimated by various ways based on in-situ observation and satellite-derived solar irradiance. In principle, clear sky index defined by clear sky solar irradiance indicates the impacts of cloud on the incoming solar irradiance. However, clear sky index widely used in energy sciences is formulated by extraterrestrial irradiance, which implies the extinction of solar irradiance due to mainly aerosol, water vapor and clouds drops. This study examined the relative difference of clear sky indices and then major characteristics of clear sky irradiance when sky is clear are investigated. Clear sky is defined when clear sky index based on clear sky irradiance is higher than 0.9. In contrast, clear sky index defined by extraterrestrial irradiance is distributed between 0.4 and 0.8. When aerosol optical depth and air mass coefficient are relative larger, solar irradiance is lower due to enhanced extinction, which leads to the lower value of clear sky index defined by extraterrestrial irradiance.

An area under construction for a living facility collapsed around 12:48 KST on 13 January 2021 in Sa-dong, Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do. There were no casualties due to the rapid evacuation measure, but part of the temporary retaining facility collapsed, and several cracks occurred in the adjacent road on the south side. This study used the potential of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite for surface property changes that lies in backscattering characteristic to map the collapsed structure. The interferometric SAR technique can make a direct measurement of the decorrelation among different acquisition dates by integrating both amplitude and phase information. The damage proxy map (DPM) technique has been employed using four high-resolution Constellation of Small Satellites for Mediterranean basin Observation (COSMO-SkyMed) data spanning from 2020 to 2021 during ascending observation to analyze the collapse of the construction. DPM relies on the difference of pre- and co-event interferometric coherences to depict anomalous changes that indicate collapsed structure in the study area. The DPMs were displayed in a color scale that indicates an increasingly more significant ground surface change in the area covered by the pixels, depicting the collapsed structure. Therefore, the DPM technique with SAR data can be used for damage assessment with accurate and comprehensive detection after an event. In addition, we classify the amplitude information using support vector machine (SVM) and maximum likelihood classification algorithms. An investigation committee was formed to determine the cause of the collapse of the retaining wall and to suggest technical and institutional measures and alternatives to prevent similar incidents from reoccurring. The report from the committee revealed that the incident was caused by a combination of factors that were not carried out properly.

I will describe the current progress within the Fifth Generation of SDSS. SDSS-V is an unprecedented all-sky spectroscopic survey of over six million objects. It is designed to decode the history of the Milky Way galaxy, trace the emergence of the chemical elements, reveal the inner workings of stars, and investigate the origin of planets. It will provide the most comprehensive all-sky spectroscopy to multiply the science from the Gaia, TESS and eROSITA missions. SDSS will also create a contiguous spectroscopic map of the interstellar gas in the Milky Way and nearby galaxies that is 1,000 times larger than the state of the art, uncovering the self-regulation mechanisms of galactic ecosystems. It will pioneer systematic, spectroscopic monitoring across the whole sky, revealing changes on timescales from 20 minutes to 20 years. I will highlight key areas of current scientific and technical development as well as opportunities to participate in the survey underway.

We present a comparative study of CO and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission toward a region including the massive star-forming regions of NGC 6334 and NGC 6357. We use the NANTEN $^{12}CO(J=1-0)$ data and the AKARI $9{\mu}m$ All-Sky diffuse map in order to evaluate the calibration accuracy of the AKARI data. We confirm that the overall CO distribution shows a good spatial correspondence with the PAH emission, and their intensities exhibit a good power-law correlation with a spatial resolution down to 4' over the region of $10^{\circ}{\times}10^{\circ}$. We also reveal poorer correlation for small scale structures between the two quantities toward NGC 6357, due to strong UV radiation from local sources. Larger scatter in the correlation toward NGC 6357 indicates higher ionization degree and/or PAH excitation than that of NGC 6334.

We present the far-ultraviolet fluorescent molecular hydrogen ($H_2$) emission map observed with FIMS/SPEAR for ~76% of the sky. The fluorescent $H_2$ emission is found to be saturated by strong dust extinction at the optically thick, Galactic plane region. However, the extinction-corrected intensity of fluorescent $H_2$ emission is found to have strong linear correlations with the well-known tracers of the cold interstellar medium, such as the E(B-V) color excess, neutral hydrogen column density N(HI), $H{\alpha}$ emission, and CO $J=1{\rightarrow}0$ emission. The all-sky molecular hydrogen column density map is also obtained using a photodissociation region model. We also derive the gas-to-dust ratio, hydrogen molecular fraction ($f_{H2}$), and $CO-to-H_2$ conversion factor ($X_{CO}$) of the diffuse interstellar medium. The gas-to-dust ratio is consistent with the standard value $5.8{\times}10^{21}atoms\;cm^{-2}mag^{-1}$, and the $X_{CO}$ tends to increase with E(B-V), but converges to the Galactic mean value $1.8{\times}10^{20}cm^{-2}K^{-1}km^{-1}s$ at optically thick regions with E(B-V)>2.0.

SLI(Street-Level Imagery)와 벡터지도의 합성을 통해 두 데이터 간의 위치 편차를 제거한 후, SLI의 매개변수를 기반으로 두 데이터의 대응되는 건물영역을 찾을 수 있다. 그러나 합성 이후에도 여러 요인으로 인하여 건물영역이 완전히 일치하지는 않는다. 본 연구는 영상의 영역분할을 통해 두 데이터 간의 건물영역 일치도를 향상시키는 것을 목적으로 한다. 합성을 통해 생성한 벡터 지도의 건물 객체를 SLI 영상에 투영한 선을 영역분할의 초기 정보로 사용한다. 우선, 필터링, 분할(segmentation), 하늘영역 탐지를 통해 하늘 영상을 생성한다. 그리고 에지 검출자를 통해 건물 분리 후보선을 추출한 후, 색상 차이와 하늘정보를 함께 활용하여 건물 최적분리선을 추출함으로써 보다 정확한 건물영역으로 분할한다. 실제 데이터에 대한 실험 결과, 영역 분할을 통해 건물영역 일치 정확도가 83.3%에서 89.7%로 향상된 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 성과는 SLI 서비스를 강화하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

The interstellar dust grains are formed and supplied to interstellar space from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars or supernova remnants, and become constituents of the star- and planet-formation processes that lead to the next generation of stars. Both a qualitative, and a compositional study of this cycle are essential to understanding the origin of the pre-solar grains, the missing sources of the interstellar material, and the chemical evolution of our Galaxy. The AKARI/MIR all-sky survey was performed with two mid-infrared photometric bands centered at 9 and $18{\mu}m$. These data have advantages in detecting carbonaceous and silicate circumstellar dust of AGB stars, and the interstellar polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons separately from large grains of amorphous silicate. By using the AKARI/MIR All-Sky point source catalogue, we surveyed C-rich and O-rich AGB stars in our Galaxy, which are the dominant suppliers of carbonaceous and silicate grains, respectively. The C-rich stars are uniformly distributed across the Galactic disk, whereas O-rich stars are concentrated toward the Galactic center, following the metallicity gradient of the interstellar medium, and are presumably affected by the environment of their birth place. We will compare the distributions of the dust suppliers with the distributions of the interstellar grains themselves by using the AKARI/MIR All-Sky diffuse maps. To enable discussions on the faint diffuse interstellar radiation, we are developing an accurate AKARI/MIR All-Sky diffuse map by correcting artifacts such as the ionising radiation effects, scattered light from the moon, and stray light from bright sources.

본 연구에서는 두개의 SAR 위성(ALOS-1과 COSMO-SkyMed) 영상에 PSInSAR 기술을 적용하여 각기 다른 센서 특성에 따른 변위 관측 성능의 차이를 분석하였다. 수치지형도 레이어로부터 건물 레이어를 추출하여, SAR 위성 영상으로부터 추출된 PS를 건물구조물과 지표면에서 추출되는 PS로 분류하고 각각 밀도 분석을 수행하였다. 연구지역에서 추출된 PS의 밀도는 ALOS-1 PALSAR의 경우 $0.023point/m^2$, COSMO-SkyMed는 $0.1point/m^2$로 ALOS-1에 비해 4배 이상의 PS가 추출되었다. 또한, 건물에서의 PS 밀도뿐만 아니라 지면에서의 관측 밀도도 크게 증가하였다. ALOS-1 PALSAR의 평균 변위속도는 ${\pm}1cm/yr$ 이내의 값을 갖는 반면 COSMO-SkyMed의 경우 ${\pm}0.3cm/yr$ 이내의 매우 안정적인 값을 보이고 있다. 비록 동일 기간의 자료를 사용한 것이 아니기 때문에 정량적인 비교는 어렵지만, L-band에 비해 X-band SAR 시스템의 변위관측 정밀도가 매우 높다고 할 수 있다. X-band와 L-band SAR 영상 비교분석을 통해 지반침하, 싱크홀과 같이 도심지 지표면에서 유용한 신호를 획득하는 것이 중요한 연구에서 PS 관측 밀도 및 변위 관측 정밀도를 고려하였을 때 X-band SAR 자료가 매우 효과적이다.
