To derive coronal temperature, electron density and nonthermal velocity, we have analyzed high resolution spectra (e.g., Fe XII 338.3, Fe XII 352.1, Fe XIV 334.2, Fe XIV 353.8, Fe XV 284.2, Fe XV 321.8, Fe XV 327.0, Fe XVI 335.4, and Fe XVI 360.8) taken from AR 6615 by SERTS (Solar Extreme Ultraviolet Rocket Telescope and Spectrograph). Important findings emerging from the present study are as follows: (1) Temperature estimated from Fe XVI 335.4 and Fe XIV, 334.2 is $\~2.4\times10^6 K$ and no systematic difference in temperature is found between the active region and its adjacent quiet region; (2) Mean electron density estimated from Fe XV is $\~3\times10^9 cm^{-3}\;and\;\~10^{10} cm^{-3}$ from Fe XII and Fe XIV; (3) Mean density of the active region is found to be higher than that of the quiet region by a factor of 2; (4) Nonthermal velocity estimated from Fe XV and Fe XVI is $20\times25 km\;s^{-l}$ which decreases with increasing ionization temperatures. This supports the notion that the nonthermal velocity declines outwards above the transition region.

We present development of the calibration system for IGRINS (the Immersion GRating Infrared Spectrograph). We mainly use Th-Ar and U hollow cathode lamp as the spectral calibration source and telluric features can be used additionally. For the flat source, we selected a 3000K tungsten halogen lamp with 2 inch integrating sphere. From Light Tools simulation, the result flat image through calibration optics satisfied <1% flatness error requirement. We also present mechanical design of calibration box that will be attached on the IGRINS dewar. Three moving stages are designed to perform switching mechanism between all of the observing modes - target observation, flat, precision RV measurement, and spectro-polarimetric observation.

We present high-resolution radial velocity (RV) measurements of K2 giant HD 66141 from December 2003 to January 2011 using the fiber-fed Bohyunsan Observatory Echelle Spectrograph (BOES) at Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO). We find that the RV measurements for HD 66141 exhibit a periodic variation of 480 days with a semi-amplitude of 146 m/s. We do not find the correlation between RV variations and a chromospheric activity indicator (H line). The Hipparcos photometry as well as bisector velocity span (BVS) also do not show any obvious correlations with RV variations. Thus, Keplerian motion is the most likely explanation, which suggests that the RV variations arise from an orbital motion. Assuming a possible stellar mass of 1.5 $M{\odot}$, for HD 66141, we obtain a minimum mass for the planetary companion of 7.4 MJup with an orbital semi-major axis of 1.4 AU, and an eccentricity of 0.07. We support that planet occurrence rate around evolved stars is more than 10 % (Dollinger et al. 2009) as well as more massive stars do form significantly more massive planetary companions (Johnson et al. 2007; Lovis & Mayor 2007; Dollinger et al. 2009).

To detect exoplanets and study pulsation of K giant stars, we have observed precise RV (radial velocity) of about 55 early K giant (K0 - K4) stars brighter than V = 5 magnitude since 2003 by using BOES, a high resolution Echelle spectrograph attached to the 1.8 m telescope at BOAO (Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory). We detected periodic RV variation of KO III star $\beta$ Gem (HD 62509) with a period $P\;=\;596.6\;{\pm}\;2.3$ days and a semi-amplitude $K\;=\;44.8\;{\pm}\;0.7\;ms^{-1}$. If we adopt 1.7 $M_{\odot}$ for the mass of $\beta$ Gem, this yields the minimum mass of the companion m sin i = 2.64 $M_{Jupiter}$. Our results agree well with Hatzes et al. (2006) and Reffert et al. (2006), and confirm their discovery of a planetary object around $\beta$ Gem. We also confirmed about 192 minutes short period stellar oscillation found by Hatzes and Zechmeister (2007). This is the first report of exoplanet detection using BOES and demonstrates that the RV observation using BOES is accurate and stable enough to detect exoplanets around bright K giant stars.

We have investigated the intensities and full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the high dispersion spectroscopic N III emission lines of AG Peg, observed with the Hamilton Echelle Spectrograph (HES) in three different epochs at Mt. Hamilton's Lick Observatory. The earlier theoretical Bowen line study assumed the continuum fluorescence effect, presenting a large discrepancy with the present data. Hence, we analyzed the observed N III lines assuming line fluorescence as the only suitable source: (1) The O III and N III resonance line profiles near ${\lambda}$ 374 were decomposed, using the Gaussian function, and the contributions from various O III line components were determined. (2) Based on the theoretical resonant N III intensities, the expected N III Bowen intensities were obtained to fit the observed values. Our study shows that the incoming line photon number ratio must be considered to balance at each N III Bowen line level in the ultraviolet radiation according to the observed lines in the optical zone. We also found that the average FWHM of the N III Bowen lines was about $5km{\cdot}s^{-1}$ greater than that of the O III Bowen lines, perhaps due to the inherently different kinematic characteristics of their emission zones.

The high-resolution optical region spectroscopic data of the symbiotic nova AG Peg secured with the Hamilton Echelle Spectrograph at the Lick Observatory, have been analyzed along with the International Ultraviolet Explorer UV archive data. We measure about 700 line intensities in the wavelengths of 3859 to $9230{\AA}$ and identify about 300 lines. We construct pure photoionization models that represent the observed lines and the physical condition for this symbiotic nova. The spectral energy distribution of the ionizing radiation is adopted from stellar model atmospheres. Based on photoionization models, we derive the elemental abundances; C & N appear to be similar to be smaller than the Galactic planetary nebular value while O is enhanced. Our result is compared with the Contini (1997, 2003) who analyzed the UV region spectral data with the shock + ionization model. The Fe abundance appears to be enhanced than that of normal planetary nebulae, which suggests that AG Peg may have formed in the Galactic disk. The models indicate that the temperature of the central star which excite the shell gas may have fluctuated to an unexpected extent during the years 1998 - 2002.

In this study, we present a pore-selection technique to estimate the size of pore. The estimation of the size of pore is important to examine the temporal evolution of size itself and corresponding intensity. The size of pore is typically estimated by applying the intensity threshold technique to the fixed box which contains the entire pore. The typical method has disadvantages in the following circumstances; there are small features near the pore or the image has low spatial resolution. In the former, it is difficult to define a box containing the pore only, excluding the small features near the pore. In the latter, the background and threshold intensity are insignificant due to the insufficient number of pixel in the box. To avoid these difficulties, we use a pore-selection technique which is simply based on the measurement of distances from the pore center. In addition, we will discuss the advantage of the technique for the imaging spectrograph data like the NST FISS.

Wilson and Bappu found a tight correlation between the stellar absolute visual magnitude (MV) and the width of the Ca II K emission line for late-type stars in 1957. Here, we revisit the Wilson-Bappu relationship (hereafter, WBR) to claim that WBR can be an excellent indicator of stellar surface gravity of late-type stars as well as a distance indicator. We have measured the width (W) of the Ca II K emission line in high resolution spectra of 125 late-type stars, which were obtained with Bohyunsan Optical Echelle Spectrograph (BOES) and adopted from the UVES archive. Based on our measurement of the emission line width (W), we have obtained a WBR of $M_V=33.76-18.00{\log}W$. In order to extend the WBR to be a surface gravity indicator, the stellar atmospheric parameters such as effective temperature ($T_{eff}$), surface gravity (logg), metallicity ([Fe/H]), and micro-turbulence (${\xi}_{tur}$) have been derived from the self-consistent detailed analysis using the Kurucz stellar atmospheric model and the abundance analysis code, MOOG. Using these stellar parameters and logW, we found that ${\log}g=-5.85\;{\log}W+9.97\;{\log}T_{eff}-23.48$ for late-type stars.

두 개의 별로 구성되었을 것이라고 여겨진 공생별은 밝기변화는 궤도운동에 따라 밝기가 변하는 것으로 알려졌다. 분광 관측 자료에는 이러한 궤도 변화 외에도 다양한 요소가 밝기 변화에 관여하는 것이 특성으로 나타난다. 또한 공생별은 밝기가 급격하게 증가하고 혹은 감소하기도 하는데, 이는 폭발에 기인하는 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 변화, 궤도 운동에 따라 기하학적 변화와 폭발 현상을 모두 볼 수 있는 대표적인 공생별이 Z And이다. 우리는 선행연구(MIKOLAJEWSKA & KENYON, 1996)에서 발표한 저분산 분광 자료를 이용하여 위상별로 변하는 상대적 선세기 변화를 조사하였다. MIKOLAJEWSKA & KENYON (1996)의 자료는 저분산 기기로(${\Delta\lambda\sim}3{\AA}$), HeI, HII, [OIII]5007, [NeV]등이 관측되었는데, 이러한 선들의 세기를 광이온 모델을 이용하여 예측한 후, 공생별 가스를 이온화시킨 중심별(WD)의 물리적 특성을 연구하였다. 또한 Hyung & Aller가 2002년 8월 12일 Lick Observatory에서 Hamilton Echelle Spectrograph (HES)를 사용하여 3600초 노출 관측한 고 분산 분광자료(${\Delta\lambda\sim}0.1{\AA}$)도 분석하였다. HES 관측 자료는 공생별의 위상이 $\Phi$=0.22이며, HES자료는 $3470{\AA}-9775{\AA}$에서 HI, HII, HeI, HeII, NII, NIII, OII, [OI], [OII], [OIII] 등이 있었다. 이 선들의 선 윤곽을 IRAF와 StarLink/Dipso를 이용하여 분석하고, 각 성분이 위상($\Phi$=0.22)인 상태에서의 관측자에 대해 어떠한 기하학적인 구조를 가지고 있는지 연구하였다. CLOUDY를 사용하여 광 이온 모형성운을 만들어 화학원소 및 성운가스의 물리적 조건을 연구하였다. Z And의 수소의 수밀도($N_H$)는 $10^{8.5}/cm^3$으로 가정하였다. 중심별 온도는 약 110,000K, 광도는 태양의 2000배로 추정되었다.

The study was undertaken to ascertain the speech defect of patients with malocclusion, especially of openbite patients, by means of the spectral analysis method. The experimental group was composed of ten female openbite patients and their mean age was 13.8 yrs. The control group was also composed of ten female girls and their mean age was 13.7 yrs. As for the speech material, eight Korean monophthrongs and two Korean fricatives and two affricatives were used. Speeches were recorded and then analyzed by a Kay 7800 digital sonagraph. Formant frequency level or range was used as a phonemic parameter. The results were as follows: 1. Among Vowels /a:/ : $F_1,\;F_3\;and\;F_1/F_2$ showed abnormality. /o:/ and $/w:/:F_2,\;F_2-F_1\;and\;F_1/F_2$ showed abnormality. 2. Among Consonants /S/ and /h/ : The upper and lower borders of the frequency range showed abnormality. (equation omitted) : The lower border of the frequency range showed abnormality. $/C^{h}/$ : The upper and lower borders of the frequency range and concentration point showed abnormality.
