Polar cap potential has long been considered as an indicator for the amount of energy flowing in the magnetosphere-ionosphere system. Thus, the estimation of polar cap potential is important to understand the physical process of the magnetosphere. To estimate the polar cap potential in the Northern Hemisphere, merging electric field by Kan & Lee (1979) is adopted. Relationships between the PC index and calculated merging electric field ($E^*$) are examined during full-time and storm-time periods separately. For this purpose Dst, AL, and PC indices and solar wind data are utilized during the period from 1996-2003. From this linear relationship, polar cap potential (${\Phi}^*$) is estimated using the formula by Doyle & Burke (1983). The values are represented as $58.1{\pm}26.9$ kV for the full-time period and $123.7{\pm}84.1$ kV for a storm-time period separately. Considering that the average value of polar cap potential of Doyle & Burke (1983) is about 47 kV during moderately quiet intervals with the S3-2 measurements, these results are similar to such. The monthly averaged variation of Dst, AL, and PC indices are then compared. The Dst and AL indices show distinct characteristics with peaks during equinoctial season whereas the average PC index according to the month shows higher values in autumn than in spring. The monthly variations of the linear correlation coefficients between solar wind parameters and geomagnetic indices are also examined. The PC-AL linear correlation coefficient is highest, being 0.82 with peaks during the equinoctial season. As with the AL index, the PC index may also prove useful for predicting the intensity of an auroral substorm. Generally, the linear correlation coefficients are shown low in summer due to conductance differences and other factors. To assess the role of the PC index during the recovery phase of a storm, the relation between the cumulative PC index and the duration is examined. Although the correlation coefficient lowers with the storm size, it is clear that the average correlation coefficient is high. There is a tendency that duration of the recovery phase is longer as the PC index increases.

항공영상으로 제작한 고품질의 해빙표면모델은 인공위성 기반 원격탐사 기술 개발을 위한 현장자료 뿐만 아니라 북극 해빙의 정밀한 형상학적 변동 특성 분석에도 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 그러나 해빙 표면의 부족한 텍스쳐 정보는 영상정합을 어렵게 만드는 요인으로 작용한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 고품질 해빙표면 모델 생성을 위한 일환으로 균질한 해빙 표면에 대한 정합비용함수들의 성능 비교 분석을 수행한다. 정합비용함수로는 영상 도메인의 SSD(sum of squared differences), NCC(normalized cross-correlation), ZNCC(zero-mean normalized cross-correlation), 주파수 도메인의 PC(phase correlation), OC(orientation correlation), GC(gradient correlation)를 분석하였다. 텍스쳐 정보량에 따른 정합 성능을 보다 명확하고 객관적으로 분석하기 위해 객체 공간 기반 정합 기법의 원리를 바탕으로 하는 새로운 평가 방법을 도입하였다. 실험결과는 해빙 표면과 같이 텍스쳐 정보가 희박한 지역에 대해서는 정합 지역에 따라 적합한 크기의 탐색창을 가변적으로 적용해야만 정합의 신뢰성 및 정확도 확보가 가능함을 보여주었다. 정합비용함수들 사이에서는 NCC와 ZNCC가 텍스쳐 정보 변화에 대해서 가장 우수한 성능을 나타냈다.

전동기의 전기적/기계적 파라미터 측정에 관한 연구는 브리시리스 전동기 적용에 까지, 비교적 오랜기간에 걸쳐 체계적인 연구가 진행되어져 왔다. 그러나 효율적인 전기 에너지 관리를 위해 전동기 구동시스템의 전력 파라미터의 분석 및 평가에 관한 체계적인 연구는 미진한 형편이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 PC 화면상에 다양한 그래픽 화면과 수치로 디스플레이 가능한 사용자 위주의 전동기 구동장치의 전력 파라미터 분석 및 평가법을 제안하고 시스템을 개발하였다. 분석 및 평가시스템은 586-PC, DSP보드, 전력 파라미터의 분석 및 평가 소프트웨어 및 전동기 구동시스템으로 구성되어 있다. 전력 파라미터는 전압, 전류파형의 상호상관함수 알고리즘에 의해 분석되며, 이 분석 알고리즘을 DSP가 전담하여, 전력 파라미터를 실시간 분석하였다. 3차원 전류좌표계에 의하여 분석결과의 가시화를 행하였으며, 종래의 시간/주파수 영역에서의 2차원적인 평가법과 비교하였다. 적용대상 전동기로는 기동 토오크가 크며, 역률, 효율이 좋다는 장점 때문에 널리 이용되고 있는 단상 캐패시터 구동형 유동 전동기와 싸이리스터로 제어되는 구동 시스템을 선정하였다. 캐패시터 구동형 단상 유동전동기의 속도제어를 위하여 싸이리스터의 위상각을 변화시켰으며, 위상각 변화에 따른 전동기의 전력 파라미터를 분석 평가하여 본 연구의 유용성을 확인하였다.

The dynamics of the outer zone radiation belt has received a lot of attention mainly due to the correlation between the occurrence of enhancing relativistic electron flux and spacecraft operation anomalies or even failures (e.g., Baker et al. 1994). Relativistic electron events are often observed during great storms associated with ultra low frequency (ULF) waves. For example, a large buildup of relativistic electrons was observed during the great storm of March 24, 1991 (e.g., Li et al. 1993; Hudson et al. 1995; Mann et al. 2013). However, the dominant processes which accelerate magnetospheric radiation belt electrons to MeV energies are not well understood. In this paper, we present observations of Pc5 ULF waves in the recovery phase of the Bastille day storm of July 16, 2000 and electron and proton flux simultaneously oscillating with the same frequencies as the waves. The mechanism for the observed electron and proton flux modulations is examined using ground-based and satellite observations. During this storm time, multiple packets of discrete frequency Pc5 ULF waves appeared associated with energetic particle flux oscillations. We model the drift paths of electrons and protons to determine if the particles drift through the ULF wave to understand why some particle fluxes are modulated by the ULF waves and others are not. We also analyze the flux oscillations of electrons and protons as a function of energy to determine if the particle modulations are caused by a ULF wave drift resonance or advection of a particle density gradient. We suggest that the energetic electron and proton modulations by Pc5 ULF waves provide further evidence in support of the important role that ULF waves play in outer radiation belt dyanamics during storm times.

Objective : In this study, we investigated the relationship between the histologic grading of meningiomas and proliferative potentials determined by the Ki-67, proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) and flow cytometry (FCM) with the aim of determining whether these potentials can be used as a parameter to the proliferative activity, in particular of atypical and malignant meningiomas. Methods : This study consisted of 47 meningiomas(6 malignant, 14 atypical, and random sampled 27 benign meningiomas). By immunohistochemical staining of Ki-67 and PCNA on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections, the anti-human rabbit polyclonal antibody against Ki-67 antigen and anti-PCNA monoclonal antibody(PC10) scores were counted. FCM was also performed on paraffin-embedded tissue using a selective staining technique for DNA. DNA ploidy, S-phase fraction, and proliferative index(PI)) were determined. Results : The results are summarized as follows ; 1) Proliferation rates as assessed by Ki-67 and PCNA closely correlated with the degree of anaplastic histologic features. 2) Proliferative potentials determined by FCM(S-phase fraction and PI) were not able to distinguish between benign and atypical/malignant meningiomas. 3) DNA ploidy was not a useful indicator of histologic grade in these tumors. 4) Proliferative potentials such as Ki-67 staining index(SI) and PCNA SI did not correlate with the ploidy pattern. 5) There was a linear correlation between Ki-67 SI and PCNA SI, but we could not find a correlation between Ki-67 SI and S-phase fraction or PI. Our results also did not show a statistically signficant correlation between PCNA SI and S-phse fraction or PI. Conclusions : We conclude that evaluation of the proliferative potentials with Ki-67 and PCNA is important as an additional factor for the prediction of malignancy in meningiomas. A dual study of Ki-67 and PCNA SIs on the same tissue might improve the accuracy with which the proliferative potential of a tumor can be predicted. We demonstrated that FCM in meningiomas is not valuable in predicting the behavior of these neoplasms, but we did observe a trend toward more malignancy with higher percent S-phase fraction and higher PI. Analysis of the S-phase fraction and PI might therefore be a useful tool to discriminate among histologic grades of meningiomas.

We firstly present the unified Far-UV continuum map of the Taurus-Auriga-Perseus (TPA) complex, one of the largest local associations of dark cloud located in (l, b)=([154,180], [-28, -2]), by merging both FIMS and GALEX. The FUV continuum map shows that dust extinction correlate well with the FUV around the complex. It shows strong absorption in FUV toward the dense Taurus cloud while it does not in California cloud. It turned out that it is related to the relative location of each cloud and Perseus OB2 association. We also present some results of dust scattering simulation based on Monte Carlo Radiative Transfer technique (MCRT). Through this dust scattering simulation, we have derived the scattering parameter for this region, albedo(a)=$0.42^{+0.05}{_{-0.05}}$, asymmetry factor(g)=$0.47^{+0.11}{_{-0.27}}$. The optical parameters we obtained seem reasonable compared to the theoretical model values ~0.40 and ~0.65 for the albedo and the phase function though the phase function is rather small. Using the result of simulation, we figured out the geometries of each cloud in the complex region, especially their distances and thicknesses. Our predictions from the results are in good agreement with the previous studies related to the TPA complex. For example, the Taurus cloud is within ~200pc from the Sun and the Perseus seems to be multi-layered, at least two. The California cloud is more distant than the other cloud on average at ~350 pc and Auriga cloud seems to be between the Taurus cloud and the eastern end of the California cloud. We figured out that across the TPA complex region, there might be some correlation between the LSR velocity and the distance to each cloud in the complex.

As a continuation of a previous work by Park et al. (2006), we have developed a two-element radio interferometer that can measure both the phase and amplitude of a visibility function. Two small radio telescopes with diameters of 2.3 m are used as before, but this time an external reference oscillator is shared by the two telescopes so that the local oscillator frequencies are identical. We do not use a hardware correlator; instead we record signals from the two telescopes onto a PC and then perform software correlation. Complex visibilities are obtained toward the sun at ${\lambda}\;=\;21\;cm$, for 24 baselines with the use of the earth rotation and positional changes of one element, where the maximum baseline length projected onto UV plane is ${\sim}\;90{\lambda}$. As expected, the visibility amplitude decreases with the baseline length, while the phase is almost constant. The image obtained by the Fourier transformation of the visibility function nicely delineates the sun, which is barely resolved due to the limited baseline length. The experiment demonstrates that this system can be used as a "toy" interferometer at least for the education of (under)graduate students.

In general, motor parameters can be divided into mechanical/electrical parameters and harmonic parameters. Mechanical/electrical parameters identification of motor have been studying systematically for a long time. But, systematical study on harmonic parameters analysis for efficient motor drive system are very poor. The goal of this paper is to propose analyzing method of harmonic parameters for motor drive system with various experimental graphic screens and numerical results and to develope harmonic parameters analyzer. A developed analyzer is made up 586-PC and DSP (digital signal processor) board, motor drive system, power and harmonic parameters analyzing software for windows. Harmonic parameters are analyzed using correlation signal processing techniques based on the correlation between voltage and current waveforms. Analysis results are visualized by 3-D current coordinates, and it is compared and evaluated with conventional time/frequency domain. To verify the validity of the proposed system, 1/4HP capacitor run type single phase induction motor and thyristor speed controller is used for analyzing. Harmonic parameters of motor drive system is analyzed and verified, with varying fire angle of thyristor speed controller, and the proposed approach is to confirm validity.
