  • We construct the X-ray light curves of the W UMa type contact binary SS Arietis(HD12929) from the EXOSAT data in HEASARC data archive. The phase dependent X-ray light curves obtained by using the ephimeris of Kaluzny & Pojmanski of SS Ari is modulated on the orbital phase as in the case of other W UMa type binaries. Although a detailed analysis of these data is impossible because of the very low X-ray light curves in the context of the radiation in the corona region of W UMa type stars.

  • Modem church architecture in korea have many problems in the shape and composition of space and design method. Many church were built without consideration of the identity of the christian religion. The characters of Ando Tadao's church architecture are using the transition space, light and the symbol. The transition space similar to the approach process using in asian temple. It make a meditative space for the church during approach to the chapel. Ando Tadao make meditative space by using self-support wall. In here, Self-supporting wall devide space as the holly space and the common space. Light is very important element in church architecture. He introduce light and shadow in the chapel more significant element. Light and shadow make the space with very dignity. Also, Ando Tadao use symbol as important element. It make the identity of christian religion. He make that as a part of structure. The well-controled symbols change the simple space to more religious place.

  • Recently, light pollution has become a serious environment issue caused by excessive uses of artificial light. Central and local governments have made efforts to manage light pollution and mitigate light pollution damages. Developing methods to diagnose light pollution is critical to effectively monitor light pollution conditions in Seoul. This study develops a methodology to create a map that presents the status of light pollution in Seoul, using International Space Station(ISS) night-time images. Through the map, we evaluated the areas that show high levels of light intensity and found out local characteristics of light intensity; Commercial area, office building concentrated area, and large sports facilities. The result of study provides basic understanding to present a new way for monitoring light pollution in urban sites.

  • We present new BVRI light curves of UY UMa with no O'Connell effect and a flat bottom secondary eclipse. Light curve synthesis with the Wilson-Devinney code gives a new solution, which is quite different from the previous study: UY UMa is an A-subtype over-contact binary with a small mass ratio of q = 0.21, a high inclination of 81°.4, a small temperature difference of ΔT=18°, a large fill-out factor of f = 0.61, and a third light of approximately 10% of the total systemic light. The absolute dimensions were newly determined. Seventeen new times of minimum light have been calculated from our observations. The period study indicates that the orbital period has intricately varied in a secular period increase in which two cyclical terms with periods of 12y.0 and 46y.3 are superposed. The secular period increase was interpreted to be due to a conservative mass transfer of 2.68 × 10-8 M/yr from the less massive to the more massive star. The cyclical components are discussed in terms of double-light time contributions from two additional bound stars. The statistical relations of Yang & Qian (2015) among the physical parameters of 45 deep, low mass ratio contact binaries were revisited by using the physical parameters of UY UMa and 25 Kepler contact binaries provided by Şenavci et al. (2016).

  • In a solar coronagraph, the most important component is an occulter to block the direct light from the disk of the sun. Because the intensity of the solar outer corona is $10^{-6}$ to $10^{-10}$ times of that of the solar disk ($I_{\odot}$), it is necessary to minimize scattering at the optical elements and diffraction at the occulter. Using a Fourier optic simulation and a stray light test, we investigated the performance of a compact coronagraph that uses an external truncated-cone occulter without an internal occulter and Lyot stop. In the simulation, the diffracted light was minimized to the order of $7.6{\times}10^{-10}I_{\odot}$ when the cone angle ${\theta}_c$ was about $0.39^{\circ}$. The performance of the cone occulter was then tested by experiment. The level of the diffracted light reached the order of $6{\times}10^{-9}I_{\odot}$ at ${\theta}_c=0.40^{\circ}$. This is sufficient to observe the outer corona without additional optical elements such as a Lyot stop or inner occulter. We also found the manufacturing tolerance of the cone angle to be $0.05^{\circ}$, the lateral alignment tolerance was $45{\mu}m$, and the angular alignment tolerance was $0.043^{\circ}$. Our results suggest that the physical size of coronagraphs can be shortened significantly by using a cone occulter.

  • Heterodyne efficiency is an indicator to evaluate the performance of space coherent laser communication systems. It is affected by signal light and local oscillator (LO) light amplitude, phase and polarization state. In this paper, based on the common heterodyne efficiency, a heterodyne efficiency model that can reflect polarization aberration of optical system is proposed. The heterodyne efficiency is analyzed when the signal light and the LO light are linearly polarized or circularly polarized. For a coherent communication optical system, when the incident signal light is right-circularly polarized light and the incident LO light is 45° linear polarized light. Based on the three-dimensional ray tracing theory and the heterodyne efficiency proposed in this paper, the change of polarization states and the distribution of heterodyne efficiency of the signal light and LO light influenced by the optical system's polarization aberration are analyzed. Analysis shows that the heterodyne efficiency model proposed in this paper can be used to evaluate coherent communication systems and reflect the influence of optical system polarization aberration.

  • A total of 842 observations (277 in B, 282 in V, and in R) for U Pegasi were made in October of 1996 at Mt. Sobaek Observatory. With our data we constructed the BVR light curves and determinded 5 times of minimum light. We also obtained physical parameters of the system by combined analysis of both light and radial velocity curves using the Wilson-Devinney code.

  • Appling natural light to the spaces for the exhibition requires the compromises between the expectations of visitors whom are preferable to perceive the details of the works of art, and preservation of light sensitive artworks of least exposure to light. To solve the compromises, it requires a careful planing to control the penetration of the daylight by physical and mechanical devices such as diffusive glasses and blinds. The control of light penetration can also be achieved by providing spaces inside and outside of the building. The aim of this study is suggest the conceptual methods to control the daylight by space design. Museums and galleries using daylight were investigated how the daylight is controlled by the integrated spaces in the exhibition spaces. This study presents nine ways of controlling daylight penetration by space design.

  • The purpose of this study is to shed light on the field dynamics of 'lived space' in the light of our intuitive experiential contents by way of investigating three properties of space. While finding inspirations in the field theory of modern physics, investigation of our intuitive responses to the physical and spatial environment leads us to a coherent view of matter and space. We find then that our lived world is more than a system of inert matter; it is a dynamic environment of life in which feeling and mood, spiritual meaning and value, are perpetually infused with matter. Any concept of space, if it is to be meaningful to lift has to somehow acknowledge this fact. Empty space and matter cannot be conceived as mutually exclusive and independent as in classical physics. Rather they should be seen as two different manifestations of an underlying dynamism which permeates the world. The 'properties' of space can only be understood in terms of the 'impact' of material presence. The object cannot be seen as an isolated entity, but the 'conditioning' of its surrounding space has to be understood as an integral part of its being. Lived space can thus be viewed as an emotionally charged field, or a field of emotional energy, whose properties may be described in terms of concentration, mobility and resonance.
