After the successful flight test of X-43A, U.S. Airforce is developing missile-type X-51A SED (Scramjet Engine Demonstrator-Wave Rider). X-51A using PWR (Pratt and Whitney Rocketdyne) X-1 hydrocarbon fueled scramjet engine will have a ground test in 2008 and flight test in 2009. Technologies established though the X-51A program will be transferred to DARPA's Falcon program developing HTV (Hypersonic Test Vehicle)-3X and HCV (Hypersonic Cruise Vehicle). Present paper is an overview of propulsion core technologies of X-51 such as regenerative cooling of engine structures and combustion using liquid/supercritical JP-7 fuel.

The present article is intended to introduce the X-51A Scramjet Engine Demonstrator-Wave Rider (SED-WR) program and its core technologies to the korean propulsion community. The X-51A program is lead by the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and is sponsored by the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). Most of the contents is taken from the paper by Hank et al.[1] with the supplemental materials from additional references. X-51A is a hypersonic experimental vehicle for the flight test of the hydrocarbon fuel-cooled scramjet engine developed by the AFRL HyTech program. The scramjet engine and the hypersonic flight technologies may enter the era of practical use by the completion of the ground tests in 2008 followed by the flight tests scheduled in 2009.

The Spitzer Public Legacy Survey of the UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey (SpUDS) has been carried out with four IRAC bands and one MIPS band (24um). SpUDS surveys 1 square degree of the UDS field, that has been covered by one of the deepest near IR surveys and by various multiwavelength observations from X-ray to radio (XMM, GALEX, Subaru, SCUBA, VLA). We present a summary of the photometric data including number counts derived at 3.6-24 microns. In conjunction with extensive multiwavelengh data, we are able to show the multiwavelenght color distribution of MIR sources, and how different SED types contribute to the number counts.
