BVR observations for 52 standard stars were performed using the 1-m reflecter with 2K CCD System of Chungbuk National University Observatory (CBNUO) in 2008. We obtained 1,322 CCD images to establish a correlation between our bvr system and the standard Johnson-Cousins BVR system. We derived the tentative equations of transformation between then as follows; V = v-0.0303(B - V) + 0.0466 B - V = 1.3475(b - v) - 0.0251 V - R = 1.0641(v - r) - 0.0125 Using these equations the magnitudes in V, B-V, and V-R for 197 stars were obtained.

Defining the mechanisms of B cell diversification which establish the immune repertoire is fundamental to understand how the immune response is regulated. In this report, B cell differentiation and diversification focused on the regulation of immunoglobulin $V_H$ gene expression during ontogeny were analyzed by in situ hybridization technique. Fetal liver B cells in .different gestational days from 16d to 20d showed the predominant expression of $V_H7183$ and $V_HQ52$ without transition of repertoire during the observed gestation days. The two subsets of fetal liver B cells separated according to different differentiation stages based on the presence of tell surface immunoglobulin also did not indicate apparent difference in expressed $V_H$ gene family profiles. B cells in fetal spleen as an another hematopoietic lymphoid tissue in fetus also expressed similar $V_H$ gene repertoire to that in fetal liver B cells. This distinct pattern of $V_H$ gene expression in fetal B cells from that of adult B cells were not changed even after four weeks contact with adult bone marrow microenvironment supplied by the established adult bone marrow stromal cell layers. Thus, the restricted $V_H$ gene repertoire of B cells in fetus which is distinct from that in adult appears to be associated more with the genetic potential of fetal B cell progenitors and less with environmental influences or differentiation stages or compartmentalization.

For the specific detection of human Parvovirus B19 (HuPaV-B19), we designed ten specific PCR primers from 3,800~4,500 nucleotides of HuPaV-B19 complete genome (NC_000883.2). Seventeen candidate PCR primer sets for specific detecting HuPaV-B19 were constructed. In specific reaction of HuPaV-B19, seventeen PCR primer sets showed specific band, however five PCR primer sets were selected basis of band intensity, amplicon size and location. In non-specific reaction with seven reference viruses, four PCR primer sets showed non-specific band, however one PCR primer set is not. Detection sensitivity of final selective PCR primer set was $100fg/{\mu}L$ for 112 minute, and PCR amplicon is 539 base pairs (bp). In addition, nested PCR primer set was developed, for detection HuPaV-B19 from a low concentration of contaminated samples. Selection of nested PCR primer set was basis of sensitivity and groundwater sample tests. Detection sensitivity of final selective PCR and nested PCR primer sets for the detection of HuPaV-B19 were $100fg/{\mu}L$ and $100ag/{\mu}L$ basis of HuPaV-B19 plasmid, it was able to rapid and highly sensitive detection of HuPaV-B19 than previous reports. We expect developed PCR primer set in this study will used for detection of HuPaV-B19 in various samples.

A total of 792 CCD images of V523 Cas were obtained on four nights of Jan. 2003 with the bvri CCD photometric system attached to a 61cm reflector of Sobaeksan Optical Astronomy Observatory (SOAO). The 17 standard stars in the images were used to establish transformation relations between our bvri system and the standard Johnson-Cousins BVRI system. We derived the tentative equations of transformation between two photometric systems as follows; V=v-0.0689(B-V)+0.0063, B-V=1.3197(b-v)-0.1733, V-R=0.9210(v-r)-0.1309, R-I=0.8892(r-i)-0.1055. Using these equations standard V magnitudes and their color indexes (B-V, V-R, R-I) for 57 stars in the field of the image were determined.

Let a and b be positive integers, and let V (G), ��(G), and ��2(G) be the vertex set of a graph G, the minimum degree of G, and the minimum degree sum of two non-adjacent vertices in V (G), respectively. An even [a, b]-factor of a graph G is a spanning subgraph H such that for every vertex v ∈ V (G), dH(v) is even and a ≤ dH(v) ≤ b, where dH(v) is the degree of v in H. Matsuda conjectured that if G is an n-vertex 2-edge-connected graph such that $n{\geq}2a+b+{\frac{a^2-3a}{b}}-2$, ��(G) ≥ a, and ${\sigma}_2(G){\geq}{\frac{2an}{a+b}}$, then G has an even [a, b]-factor. In this paper, we provide counterexamples, which are highly connected. Furthermore, we give sharp sufficient conditions for a graph to have an even [a, b]-factor. For even an, we conjecture a lower bound for the largest eigenvalue in an n-vertex graph to have an [a, b]-factor.

Mechanical properties of the system PbO-B2O3-V2O5 low melting glass during crystallization by heat-treatment were investigated. Wettability of the system PbO-B2O3-V2O5 was excellent and appropriate for commercial sealing as a low melting solder glass. Crystals, during heat-treated at 30$0^{\circ}C$ of the system PbO-B2O3-V2O5 were $\beta$-4PbO.B2O3, 5PbO.4B2O3, and Pb2V2O7 mainly. The percent of crystallinity was 82$\pm$5%. Mechanical properties of the system PbO-B2O3-V2O5 were influenced not only by the differences of density and coefficient of thermal expansion and the stress induced from the difference in the density and coefficient of thermal expansion between glass phase and crystals but also crystallization conditions.

Non-LTE 항성대기모형인 Tlusty 모형의 합성색지수와 성간소광을 매우 적게 받은 산개성단에 있는 별들의 색지수를 바탕으로 O와 B형 별의 고유색지수 관계를 채택하였다. 태양인근 3kpc 내에 있는 약 190개 젊은 산개성단의 가시광 및 근적외선 2MASS JHKs 관측자료와 위에서 채택한 고유 색지수 관계를 적용하여 색 초과비 E(V-I)/E(B-V), E(V-J)/E(B-V), E(V-H)/E(B-V), 및 E(V-Ks)/E(B-V)를 얻고, 색 초과비와 $R_V$의 관계를 사용하여, 각 성단의 성간소광법칙 $R_V$를 결정하였다. 국부 나선팔의 백조자리 방향과 Per 나선팔에 있는 산개성단들은 약간 작은 $R_V$를 보이며, 큰개자리 방향의 국부 나선팔에 있는 산개성단은 정상적인$R_V$를, 그리고 Sgr-Car 나선팔에 있는 산개성단들은 약간 큰 값을 보였다. 이 결과는 최대 편광도를 보이는 파장과 $R_V$의 관계로 얻을 수 있는 양상과 잘 일치한다.

We present BVRI CCD photometry and near-infrared K photometry of the intermediate-aged open cluster NGC 7790. The reddening, E(B - V) = 0.54 $\pm$ 0.05 and the distance modulus, (m - M)o = 12.45 $\pm$ 0.10 for the cluster were determined by zero-age-main-sequence fitting and theoretical isochrone fitting using not only (V, B - V), (V, V - 1), (V, V - R) but also (V, V - K) color-magnitude diagrams. The reddening corresponded approximately to the average value derived from previous studies, while the distance modulus was found to be almost midway between the CCD photometric results of Romeo et al. (1989) and those of Mateo & Madore (1988). We have used four colors to distinguish members from field stars. The expected colors were calculated using the derived distance modulus, and were then were compared with the observed colors (B - V), (V - 1), (V - R), and (V - K). Thus, a color excess E(B - V) for each star was determined which could give the minimum difference between the calculated and observed colors. Single and binary members of the cluster were determined on the basis of the E(B - V) distribution of stars.

Let G be a bipartite graph with (X, Y ) as its bipartition. Let B be a complete bipartite graph with a bipartition ($V_1$, $V_2$) such that $X{\subseteq}V_1$ and $Y{\subseteq}V_2$. A bi-packing of G in B is an injection ${\sigma}:V(G){\rightarrow}V(B)$ such that ${\sigma}(X){\subseteq}V_1$, ${\sigma}(Y){\subseteq}V_2$ and $E(G){\cap}E({\sigma}(G))={\emptyset}$. In this paper, we show that if G is a bipartite graph of order n with girth at least 12, then there is a complete bipartite graph B of order n + 1 such that there is a bi-packing of G in B. We conjecture that the same conclusion holds if the girth of G is at least 8.

This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of biochar as an alternative medium to peatmoss using for Aster spathulifolius. We cultivated A. spathulifolius in four potting media with different mixing rates (v/v) of peatmoss (P) and biochar (B) as follows: B0+P3, B1+P2, B2+P1, and B3+P0 with vermiculite 3 + perlite 3. Also, we analyzed the chemical properties of media and the plant growth characteristics. The results were as follows: In case of media's chemical condition, B0+P3 and B1+P2 treatments showed higher tendency (p < 0.05). Plant height on B0+P3 and B1+P2 treatments was much higher than that on other treatments (p < 0.05). Root length on B1+P2 treatment was higher than on B0+P3 treatment (p < 0.05). B0+P3 and B1+P2 treatments showed higher number of leaves and dry biomass than other treatments. Therefore, our results support that Biochar : Peatmoss : Vermiculite : Perlite (1/3 : 2/3 : 1 : 1, v/v) could be a more economical potting medium for A. spathulifolius than peatmoss : vermiculite : perlite (1 : 1 : 1, v/v).
