Dust polarization depends on the physical and mechanical properties of dust, as well as the properties of local environments. To understand how dust polarization varies with grain mechanical properties and the local environment, in this paper, we model the wavelength-dependence polarization of starlight and polarized dust emission by aligned grains by simultaneously taking into account grain alignment and rotational disruption by radiative torques (RATs). We explore a wide range of the local radiation field and grain mechanical properties characterized by tensile strength. We find that the maximum polarization and the peak wavelength shift to shorter wavelengths as the radiation strength U increases due to the enhanced alignment of small grains. Grain rotational disruption by RATs tends to decrease the optical-near infrared polarization but increases the ultraviolet polarization of starlight due to the conversion of large grains into smaller ones. In particular, we find that the submillimeter (submm) polarization degree at 850㎛(P850) does not increase monotonically with the radiation strength or grain temperature (Td), but it depends on the tensile strength of grain materials. Our physical model of dust polarization can be tested with observations toward star-forming regions or molecular clouds irradiated by a nearby star, which have higher radiation intensity than the average interstellar radiation field. Finally, we compare our predictions of the P850-Td relationship with Planck data and find that the observed decrease of P850 with Td can be explained when grain disruption by RATs is accounted for, suggesting that interstellar grains unlikely to have a compact structure but perhaps a composite one. The variation of the submm polarization with U (or Td)can provide a valuable constraint on the internal structures of cosmic dust

We carried out simultaneous monitoring observations of five maser lines, H₂O (22 GHz), SiO 𝝊 =1, 2, J =1-0 (43.1, 42.8 GHz), and SiO 𝝊 =1, J=2-1, J =3-2 (86.2, 129.3 GHz), toward the Mira variable star WX Serpentis with the 21-m antennas of the Korean VLBI Network (KVN) in 2009-2021 (~12 years). Most spectra of the H₂O maser are well separated into two parts of two blue- and one redshifted features within ± 10 km s-1 of the stellar velocity. All detected SiO masers are generally concentrated within ± 5 km s-1 of the stellar velocity, and sometimes appear split into two components. Overall, the profiles of SiO and H₂O masers detected in WX Serpentis illustrate typical characteristics of the Mira variable. In addition, flux variations of both SiO and H₂O masers are well correlated with the optical light curve of the central star, showing a phase lag of ~ 0.1 for SiO masers and ~ 0.2 for H₂O maser. This phenomenon is considered to be the direct effect of propagating shock waves generated by the stellar pulsation, because SiO and H₂O masers are sequentially distributed at different positions with respect to the central star. In addition, we analyzed long-term trends and characteristics of maser velocities, maser ratio, and the velocity extents (the full width at zero power; FWZP). We also investigated a spectral energy distribution (SED) ranging from 1.2 to 240 ㎛ obtained using several infrared data: 2MASS, WISE, IRAS, ISO, COBE DIBRE, RAFGL, and AKARI (IRC and FIS). From the IRAS LRS and ISO SWS spectra of this star, we identified 9.7 and 12 ㎛ silicate emission features consistent with the SE6 spectrum model, corresponding to the typical AGB phase.

We present the results of high-resolution (R ≥ 30,000) optical and near-infrared spectroscopic monitoring observations of a FU Orionis-type object, 2MASS J06593158-0405277. We have monitored 2MASS J06593158-0405277 with the Bohyunsan Optical Echelle Spectrograph (BOES) and the Immersion GRating INfrared Spectrograph (IGRINS) since December 2014. Various features produced by wind, disk, and outflow/jet were detected. The wind features varied over time and disappeared about a year after the outburst occurred. The double-peaked line profiles were detected in the optical and near-infrared, and the line widths decrease with increasing wavelength. The disk features in the optical spectra are fit well with G2-type or G5-type stellar spectra convolved with a disk rotational profile of about 45 km s^-1, which corresponds to a disk radius of about 71 R_⊙for a central mass of 0.75 M_⊙. Disk features in near-infrared spectra are fit well with a K1-type stellar spectrum convolved with a disk rotational profile of about 35 km s^-1, which corresponds to a disk radius of about 117 R_⊙ for a central mass of 0.75 M_⊙. We also detected [S II] and H2 emission lines, which are rarely found in FUors but are usually found in the earlier stage of young stellar objects. Therefore, we suggest that 2MASS J06593158-0405277 is in the relatively earlier part of Class II stage.

Focus on climate change and extreme weather conditions has received considerable attention in recent years. Civil engineers are now focusing on designing buildings that are more eco-friendly in the face of climate change. This paper describes the research conducted to assess the impact of future climate change on energy usage and carbon emissions in a typical supermarket at multiple locations across the UK. Locations that were included in the study were London, Manchester, and Southampton. These three cities were compared against their building performance based on their respective climatic conditions. Based on the UK Climatic Projections (UKCP09), a series of energy modelling simulations which were provided by the Chartered Institute of Building Service Engineers (CIBSE) were conducted on future weather years for this investigation. This investigation ascertains and quantifies the annual energy consumption, carbon emissions, cooling, and heating demand of the selected supermarkets at the three locations under various climatic projections and emission scenarios, which further validates annual temperature rise as a result of climatic variation. The data showed a trend of increasing variations across the UK as one moves southwards, with London and Southampton at the higher side of the spectrum followed by Manchester which has the least variability amongst these three cities. This is the first study which investigates impact of the climate change on the UK supermarkets across different regions by using the real case scenarios.

There are several ways to demonstrate white organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) for displays and solid state lighting applications. Among these approaches are the stacked three primary or two complementary colors light-emitting layers, multiple-doped emissive layer, and excimer and exciplex emission [1-10]. We report on white phosphorescent excimer devices by using two light emitting materials based on platinum complexes. These devices showed a peak EQE of 15.7%, with an EQE of 14.5% (17 lm/W) at $500\;cd/m^2$, and a noticeable improvement in both the CIE coordinates (0.381, 0.401) and CRI (81). Devices with the structure ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TCTA (30 nm)/26 mCPy: 12% FPt (10 nm) /26 mCPy: 2% Pt-4 (15 nm)/BCP (40 nm)/CsF/Al [device 1], ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TCTA (30 nm)/26 mCPy: 2% Pt-4 (15 nm)/26 mCPy: 12% FPt (10 nm)/BCP (40 nm)/CsF/Al [device 2], and ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TCTA (30 nm)/26 mCPy: 2% Pt-4: 12% FPt (25 nm)/BCP (40 nm)/CsF/Al [device 3] were fabricated. In these cases, the emissive layer was either the double-layer of 26 mCPy:12% FPt and 15 nm 26 mCPy: 2% Pt-4, or the single layer of 26mCPy with simultaneous doping of Pt-4 and FPt. Device characterization indicates that the CIE coordinates/CRI of device 2 were (0.341, 0.394)/75, (0.295, 0.365)/70 at 5 V and 7 V, respectively. Significant change in EL spectra with the drive voltage was observed for device 2 indicating a shift in the carrier recombination zone, while relatively stable EL spectra was observed for device 1. This indicates a better charge trapping in Pt-4 doped layers [10]. On the other hand, device 3 having a single light-emitting layer (doped simultaneously) emitted a board spectrum combining emission from the Pt-4 monomer and FPt excimer. Moreover, excellent color stability independent of the drive voltage was observed in this case. The CIE coordinates/CRI at 4 V ($40\;cd/m^2$) and 7 V ($7100\;cd/m^2$) were (0.441, 0.421)/83 and (0.440, 0.427)/81, respectively. A balance in the EL spectra can be further obtained by lowering the doping ratio of FPt. In this regard, devices with FPt concentration of 8% (denoted as device 4) were fabricated and characterized. A shift in the CIE coordinates of device 4 from (0.441, 0.421) to (0.382, 0.401) was observed due to an increase in the emission intensity ratio of Pt-4 monomer to FPt excimer. It is worth noting that the CRI values remained above 80 for such device structure. Moreover, a noticeable stability in the EL spectra with respect to changing bias voltage was measured indicating a uniform region for exciton formation. A summary of device characteristics for all cases discussed above is shown in table 1. The forward light output in each case is approximately $500\;cd/m^2$. Other parameters listed are driving voltage (Bias), current density (J), external quantum efficiency (EQE), power efficiency (P.E.), luminous efficiency (cd/A), and CIE coordinates. To conclude, a highly efficient white phosphorescent excimer-based OLEDs made with two light-emitting platinum complexes and having a simple structure showed improved EL characteristics and color properties. The EQE of these devices at $500\;cd/m^2$ is 14.5% with a corresponding power efficiency of 17 lm/W, CIE coordinates of (0.382, 0.401), and CRI of 81.

Cis-(1S,4S)-4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tertrahydro-N-methyl-1-naphthalenamine (sertraline) hydrochloride from among selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) is a treatment of major depression. For the differential diagnosis by metabolizing serotonin in a patient with neurological disorders, the radiolabeled $^{11}C$-sertraline was developed for non-invasive positron emission tomography in living brain and use the evaluation of new drug for SSRIs. We release the results of a fast and easy radiolabeling method applied a one-step loop method with $[^{11}C]CH_3OTf$ for routine clinical applications of $^{11}C$-sertraline. 1 mg of a precursor for $^{11}C$-sertraline in 0.1 mL DMF and $5{\mu}L$ of 1N NaOH, were injected into the loop of semi-prep high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). $[^{11}C]CH_3OTf$ was passed through the loop at room temperature (RT). The $^{11}C$-sertraline was separated by the semi-preparative HPLC. $^{11}C$-sertraline was eluted at 28.0 min was collected and evaluated by analytical HPLC and mass spectrometer. The total radiolabeling efficiency of $^{11}C$-sertraline was $30.7{\pm}8.7%$. The specific activity was $64.8{\pm}51.4GBq/{\mu}mol$. The radiochemical and chemical purities were higher than 99%. The mass spectrum of the product showed m/z peaks at 307.1 (M+1), indicating the mass of sertraline. By the one-step loop method with $[^{11}C]CH_3OTf$, $^{11}C$-sertraline could be quickly and easily prepared for clinical application.

기후변화 문제와 관련하여 탄소 격리와 토양 유기물의 중요성에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 토양 탄소 격리를 산정하기 위해서는 물 추출 토양 유기탄소(WESOC)와 토양 호흡에 의해 이산화탄소로 배출되는 탄소량과 같은 토양 유기탄소를 분석하는 것이 중요하다. 이러한 성분의 분석에는 시간이 많이 소요된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 분석시간이 짧게 소요되는 중적외선분광분석법으로 물 추출 유기탄소와 토양 호흡에 의한 이산화탄소량을 분석할 수 있는 가능성을 알아보았다. 토양을 $100^{\circ}C$와 $350^{\circ}C$ 건조오븐에서 처리하고 중적외선분광계로 분석하여 WESOC와 30일, 60일, 90일, 120일 간 토양호흡에 의해 발생하는 이산화탄소량과의 상관을 분석하였다. 물 추출 토양 유기탄소에 대한 예측 모델에서는 표준 일반 변수화(SNV) 전처리를 통해 0.6937의 결정 계수를 보였고 30일간의 토양 호흡 발생 이산화탄소 예측 모델에서는 $350^{\circ}C$ 건조 토양에 대해 1차 도함수 전처리를 통해 0.8933의 결정 계수를 보여 중적외선분광분석법을 사용하여 토양 중 유기탄소의 분획별 정량에 사용할 수 있는 가능성을 보였다.

PDP(plasma display panel)의 녹색 광원으로 유망한 $Zn_{2-x}Mn_xSiO_4$ 헝광체를 1300$^{\circ}C$에서 고상반응법으로 제조한 후 900$^{\circ}C$에서 후속 열처리를 실시하면 녹색 형광의 강도가 현저히 증가한다. 열처리를 통한 형광 강도의 향상과 망간의 산화 상태 및 국부 구조 변화와의 관계를 파악하고자 망간 K 흡수단의 엑스선 흡수 스펙트럼을 분석하였다. $1s{\rightarrow}3d$ 전이에 해당하는 프리엣지(preedge) 봉우리와 XANES 스펙트럼을 분석한 결과, 망간은 열처리와 무관하게 +2가의 산화 상태를 유지하였으며 Zn 자리를 치환하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 또한 EXAFS 스펙트럼의 분석을 통하여, Mn은 $MnO_4$ 사면체를 형성하고 Mn-O 쌍의 결합 길이와 디바이월러 인자(Debye-Waller factor)는 열처리 후 공히 감소함을 알 수 있었다.

우리는 이중공명 광펌핑(double resonance optical pumping; DROP)효과를 이용하여 루비듐($^{87}$ Rb) 원자의 5P$_{3}$2/-4D$_{3}$2/와 5P$_{3}$2/-4D$_{5}$ 2/ 전이선에서 DROP 스펙트럼을 관측하고, 1.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 레이저의 주파수를 무변조 안정화하였다. 관측한 DROP 스펙트럼은 기존의 광-광이중공명(optical-optical double resonance; OODR) 스펙트럼보다 높은 신호대잡음비를 가지며, 약 10 MHz의 좁은 선폭을 갖고 있다. DROP 스펙트럼의 상대적인 세기는 자발방출에 의한 광펌핑 정도로 설명할 수 있었다. DROP스펙트럼에 안정화된 1.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 레이저의 주파수 흔들림은 샘플링 시간 0.1초에서 0.2 MHz로 측정되었고, 상대주파수 흔들림은 평균시간 100초에서 약 1${\times}$$10^{-11}$이었다.
