  • Globular clusters (GCs) form at the very early stage of galaxy formation, and thus can be used as an important clue indicating the environment of the galaxy formation era. Although various GC formation scenarios have been suggested, they have not been examined in the cosmological context. Here we introduce the 'particle tagging method' in order to investigate the formation scenarios of GCs in a galaxy cluster. This method is able to trace the evolution of GCs that form in the dark matter halos which undergo the hierarchical merging events in galaxy cluster environments with an effective computational time. For this we use dark matter merger trees from the cosmological N-body simulation. Finally, we would like to find out the best GC formation scenario which can explain the observational properties of GCs in galaxy clusters.

  • The ASKAP-EMU survey is a deep wide-field radio continuum survey designed to cover the entire southern sky and a significant fraction of the northern sky up to +30°. Here, we report a discovery of a radio relic in the merging cluster SPT-CL J2023-5535 at z=0.23 from the ASKAP-EMU pilot 300 square degree survey (800-1088 MHz). The deep high-resolution data reveal a ~2 Mpc-scale radio halo elongated in the east-west direction, coincident with the intracluster gas. The radio relic is located at the western edge of this radio halo stretched ~0.5 Mpc in the north-south orientation. The integrated spectral index of the radio relic within the narrow bandwidth is α1088MHz800MHz = -0.76 ± 0.06. Our weak-lensing analysis shows that the system is massive (M200 = 1.04 ± 0.36 × 1015M⊙) and composed of at least three subclusters. We suggest a scenario, wherein the radio features arise from the collision between the eastern and middle subclusters. Furthermore, the direct link between the local AGN and the relic along with the discontinuities in X-ray observation hint us that we are looking at the site of re-acceleration.

  • 클러스터링은 주어진 임의의 데이터 중에서 유사한 성질을 지닌 데이터를 복수개의 그룹으로 조직화하는 기법이다. 이를 위해 K-Means, Fuzzy C-Means(FCM), Mountain Method(MM) 등과 같은 많은 기법들이 제안되었고 또한 널리 사용되어지고 있다. 그러나 이러한 기법들은 초기값에 따라 클러스터링 결과가 크게 달라지는 단점이 있다. 특히 가장 널리 사용되는 FCM 기법은 잡음 데이터에 취약하며, 주어진 입력 데이터의 클러스터 내부분산을 최소화 하는 방법을 사용하기 때문에 클러스터링 중심의 왜곡 현상이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 데이터 가중치에 근거한 비례적 근접데이터 병합을 통하여 클러스터 중심 왜곡을 저감하며 초기값에 영향을 받지 않는 클러스터링 기법을 제안한다. 그리고 FCM으로 얻어진 클러스터 중심과 제안기법을 적용하여 얻어진 클러스터 중심에 대한 비교 검토를 통하여 제안기법의 효용성을 확인한다.

  • We present extra-tidal features of spatial configuration of stars around three metal-poor globular clusters (NGC 6273, NGC 6266, NGC 6681) located in the Galactic bulge. The accurate wide-field photometric data were obtained in BVI bands with the MOSAICII camera at CTIO Blanco 4m telescope. The derived color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) covered a total $71'\times71'$ area including a cluster and its surrounding field outside of the tidal radius of the cluster. Applying the statistical technique of the CMD-mask algorithm, we minimized the field star contaminations on the obtained CMDs and chose properly the cluster's member stars. On the spatial stellar density maps around the target clusters, we found overdensity features beyond the tidal radii of the clusters. We also found that the radial density profiles of the clusters show departures from the best-fit King model for the outer region of clusters. The results add further observational evidence that the observed metal-poor bulge clusters would be originated from accreted satellite systems, indicative of the merging scenario of the formation of the Galaxy.

  • 이 논문에서 제안하는 군집분석방법은 분석자료와 동일한 구조의 배경자료를 생성하고 이를 나무모형의 분류기법을 이용하여 분리해 냄으로써 변수들의 규칙으로 정의되는 군집을 형성한다. 배경자료는 reverse-arcing 알고리즘을 통하여 분석자료와 공간상에서 대비되도록 생성되며 군집이 효과적으로 식별되도록 돕는다. 이 방법은 분석자료에 이산형 변수가 혼합된 경우에도 적용할 수 있으며 모의실험자료와 실제 자료를 이용하여 제안된 알고리즘의 성능을 규명하였다.

  • In the LCDM paradigm, hierarchical merging is thought to play a key role in the formation and evolution of massive galaxies. Theoretical and observational studies suggest that massive galaxies started forming at high redshifts and were assembled via numerous mergers. Galaxy clusters are the sites where the most massive galaxies are found and the most dramatic merger histories are embedded. The previous work of Sheen et al. (2012) identified via visual inspection many massive galaxies with merger features in clusters, which surprised the community. In this study we aim to quantify peculiarity of galaxies to pin down the merger frequency in cluster environments more objectively. We have performed optical deep imaging of 4 Abell clusters by using IMACS f/2 on a Magellan Badde 6.5-m telescope. For the galaxies in our data, we applied GALFIT algorithm, which fits analytic models to galaxy data, and we analyzed their residuals. We present the preliminary results of our sample galaxies.

  • Sensor Nodes play a major role to monitor and sense the variations in physical space in various real-time application scenarios. These nodes are powered by limited battery resources and replacing those resource is highly tedious task along with this it increases implementation cost. Thus, maintaining a good network lifespan is amongst the utmost important challenge in this field of WSN. Currently, energy efficient routing techniques are considered as promising solution to prolong the network lifespan where multi-hop communications are performed by identifying the most energy efficient path. However, the existing scheme suffer from performance related issues. To solve the issues of existing techniques, a novel hybrid technique by merging particle swarm optimization and game theory model is presented. The PSO helps to obtain the efficient number of cluster and Cluster Head selection whereas game theory aids in finding the best optimized path from source to destination by utilizing a path selection probability approach. This probability is obtained by using conditional probability to compute payoff for agents. When compared to current strategies, the experimental study demonstrates that the proposed GTPSO strategy outperforms them.

  • SPT-CL J2106-5844 is the most massive galaxy cluster at z>1 discovered to date. It has been known to be an isolated system with a singular, well-defined halo. However, recent studies provide lines of evidence for its merging state. We strengthen the case with the multi-wavelength observations from ALMA, ACA, ASKAP, ATCA, and Chandra. With the sensitive, high resolution ALMA+ACA observations, we reconstruct the ICM pressure map from the thermal SZ effect. It reveals two main gas components that are associated with the mass clumps inferred from the weak-lensing analysis. Furthermore, the X-ray hardness map supports the bimodal gas distribution. With these multi-wavelength data, we probe the merger phase in SPT-CL J2106-5844.

  • The Coma cluster serves as an ideal laboratory to study the cluster assembly history. It is known as a typical example of relaxed galaxy clusters. However, recent X-ray, radio and optical observations revealed a number of substructures in Coma. The NGC 4839 group is an interesting substucture in the sense that it is overlappled with the X-ray bright component in the south-west region. Recent hydrodynamical simulations in the literature suggest that the NGC 4839 group came from the north-east direction of Coma, passed the apocenter about 1 Gyr ago, and started a second infall to the Coma core recently. Interestingly a number of E+A galaxies are located along the filament connecting the NGC 4839 group and the Coma core. We are surveying a wide area covering the NGC 4839 group to search for globular clusters and use them to investigate any connection between the globular clusters and the merger scenario of the NGC 4839 group. We utilized Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam archival images of two circular fields with diameter ~1.8 deg, covering the Coma core and the NGC 4839 group. We discuss the results with regard to the formation history of the NGC 4839 group.

  • 수중 음파 통신은 해양 데이터 수집, 해저 탐사 및 개발, 군사 전술 감시 등 다양한 분야에 활용 가능하다. 이와 같이 다양한 분야에 Autonomous Underwater Vehicle(AUV)나 Remotely Operated Vehicle(ROV)와 같은 수중 로봇을 이용한 로봇 제어 시스템 구축은 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 수중 음파 센서 네트워크 구성에서 중요한 부분인 에너지 효율적인 면을 고려하는 동시에 실시간 로봇 제어 시스템 구축에 적합한 Message Merging MAC($M^2$-MAC) 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안된 Media Access Control(MAC) 프로토콜에서는 미리 할당된 타임 슬롯에 따라 로봇 노드들로부터 데이터를 수신하고, 베이스 스테이션으로부터 전달받은 메시지들을 버퍼링 과정을 거쳐 하나의 MAC 프레임으로 생성한 후 클러스터 내 모든 로봇 노드들에게 브로드 캐스팅 하게 된다. 또한 새로운 노드 진입 및 탈퇴 시 Maintenance&Sleep(M&S) 구간을 통해 관련 절차가 이루어짐으로써 경쟁과 비경쟁 방식이 혼합된 복합형 MAC 프로토콜의 형태를 이룬다. 본 논문에서는 실시간 로봇 제어 시스템 구축에 중요한 요소인 종단 간 지연과 에너지 소모량에 관련된 수학적 분석 모델을 제시하고 기존의 MAC 프로토콜과 비교함으로써 성능의 우수성을 검증한다.
