  • As more spectroscopic observations accumulate, it becomes evident that there are variations in light elements, such as C, N, O, and Na, between the sub-populations in most globular clusters (GC) in the Milky Way. We have constructed a new set of isochrones and horizontal branch evolutionary tracks with enhanced Nitrogen and depleted Oxygen to study their effects on the evolution of stars in GCs. From these results, we found that their effects on the evolution in color-magnitude diagram are significant in determining the age of GCs. In order to reflect these effects in the construction of population models for GCs, we have expanded the parameter space of Yonsei-Yale Isochrones and HB evolutionary tracks by introducing abundance enhancements of N for various global metal abundances and helium contents. In this paper, we will present our preliminary results from these calculations.

  • We present a recent progress on calibration of stellar isochrones based on a set of high-resolution spectra for 170 G- and K-type dwarfs in the solar neighborhood. We compare observed magnitudes of these stars in a number of broad passbands [UB(B_T)V(V_T)RIJHK] with model magnitudes generated using ATLAS9 synthetic library at the previously derived set of spectroscopic parameters. We find systematic offsets in colors from these passbands, which are mainly revealed as a function of effective temperature of stars. In order to remove these systematic color mismatches, we derive correction functions and apply them to the model spectra.

  • 본 연구는 Clark의 도달시간-집수면적도륵 이용한 유역추적법에 적용되는 등시간도 작성에 있어 GIS기법을 적용하기 위해 포형자료의 공간 모형화를 수행한 것이다. 기존의 수 작업으로 수행했던 하천종단법 및 Clark-kict법, Laurenson법, SCS법 등의 작업을 일관성 및 재현성을 높일 수 있고, GIS기법이 적용 가능하도록 다음과 같이 공간 모형화를 수행하였다. 하천종단법 및 Clark-kict법은 벡터형태의 실제 하천망도 만을 이용하여 실제 하천망도의 흐름방향과 하천망도기 꼭지점을 점사상 커버리지로 변환하고, 이를 주워진 임의의 두 점 사이의 거리를 흐름방향으로 추적하여 거리를 측정할 수 있는 ARC/INFO의 Route_System을 이용하여 작성할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. Laurenson법은 벡터형태의 실제 하천망을 정방형격자의 고도행렬로 표현되는 DEM자료에 위치시켜 실제 하천망을 DEM자료에 정의한 Bum DEM(Equivalent DEM)로부터 유역의 흐름방향과 원본 DEM자료의 경사를 래스터(Raster)기반으로 모형화하였다. S.C.S방법은 토지이용조건과 유속을 경사의 함수로 표시한 공식을 적용할 수 있도록 래스터기반으로 모형화하여 적용하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 공간 모형화 방법별로 등시간도를 작성하고, HEC-1모형을 이용한 모의 유출수문곡선과 실측 수문곡선를 비교하여 그 적합성을 평가하였다. 평가결과 유역의 토지이용조건과 경사를 고려한 SCS방법이 타 방법에 비하여 비교적 합당함을 보여주웠다.

  • We present a deep(B, V) color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of the Galactic globular cluster NGC 4372. According to the recent inside-out picture of Galaxy formation, this cluster is predicted to be one of the oldest globulat clusters in the Galaxy. Our CMD shows a well defined main-sequence extending ∼ 2 magnitudes below the trunoff. Despite the uncertainty that stems from the small sample size of bright stars, comparison with the Revised Yale Isochrones suggests that this cluster may indeed be one of the oldest (∼16.6 Gyrs) globular clusters in our Galaxy.

  • We present the results of near-IR band (JHK) photometric study for the old open cluster To 2. Combined with existing optical data, our IR photometry is used to derive the reddening E(B- V)=0.24$\pm$0.12 and the distance (m-M)o=14.6$\pm$0.42. Comparison with theoretical isochrones suggests the age and metallicity of To 2 are log t$\~$9.3 and [Fe/H]$\~$-0.3, respectively.

  • I will report recent progress in understanding properties of stellar and interstellar components of the Milky Way Galaxy on the two extremes - ongoing star formation activities in the Galactic center and stellar relics in the halo. Properties of the interstellar medium in the Galactic center and their relationship with star formation activities will be discussed based on by far the largest mid-IR spectroscopic data set in this region. Correlations between stellar kinematics and metallicities in the halo will be presented, along with a discussion on the estimation of fundamental stellar parameters from a set of empirically calibrated isochrones.

  • The ages of field stars given in the catalogue of Cayrel de Strobel et al. (1985) are derived by the five different methods with combination of theoretical isochrones. By using these ages and metal abundances homogenized by Lee and Choe (1988), the age-metallicity relations are obtained. For disk stars of [Fe/H] > -0.9, the present age-metallicity relations are nearly consistent with those given by Twarog (1980) and Carlberg et al. (1985).
