We propose a cosmological survey to probe star formation and nuclear activity in galaxies at redshifts of z=2-4 by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) features using the SPICA mid-infrared instrument (SMI) with a spectral resolution of R=20. We will cover a wavelength range of $20-36{\mu}$ that corresponds to z=2-4 for the PAH features (11.3, 7.7, and $6.2{\mu}$). The sensitivity will be $1{\times}10^{-19}W/m^2(5{\sigma})$ in case of a reference survey that covers 4 arcmin2 field in a one-hour observation. It corresponds to $L_{IR}=2{\times}10^{11}L_{\odot}$ at z=3 and will give us more than 10000 galaxies in a 450 hour survey.

종래의 지구과학 교과서에서는 대중 과학잡지를 비롯한 각종 언론 매체에서 자주 다루는 최신 천문 현상들에 대한 내용이 매우 부실하였다. 2009 개정 과학과 교육과정에서는 이러한 내용들을 적극 수용하자는 것이 주요 개정 방향 중 하나이다. 추가로, 천문학과 물리학의 깊은 연관성에도 불구하고 그동안 지구과학 교과에서는 현대 물리학의 개념, 물리 교과에서는 천문학과의 연관성에 대한 내용이 많이 다루어지지 않았다. 따라서 2009 개정 과학과 교육과정에서는 과학의 융합 개념을 강조하고 있다. 위의 두 가지를 모두 포함하는 분야들 중 하나로서 고에너지 천체의 격변광 현상을 들 수 있다. 본 연구는 e-Science를 이용한 천체 관측의 실시간 자료 전송 및 영상화를 소개하였다. 그 첫 단계의 실험으로서 우리는 국가 연구 교육 시험망의 하나인 KOREN을 이용한 국내 최초의 한 일간 천문 관측 자료의 대용량 자료 전송 실험을 실시하였다. 또한 천문학 및 천체물리학 관측 분야에서 활발하게 진행되는 세계 각국의 e-Science 분야들을 소개하고, 과학탐구활동 및 과학 대중화 활동과 어떻게 연결되어 진행되는지 소개하였다. 아직 걸음마 단계인 국내 천문 분야의 e-Science에 있어서 우리의 실험이 가지는 과학적 및 교육적 의미를 짚어보고, 머지않아 상용화될 Gbps급 인터넷 환경에 있어서 이와 같은 실험의 과학탐구활동 및 과학 대중화 활동에 있어서의 활용을 전망해 보았다.

The brightness of Io's magnetic footprint, an indicator of electromagnetic interaction at the satellite, appears to be strongly connected to the satellite's distance from the plasma equator. As a result, the brightest footprints were detected when Io is near the interception location between the satellite's orbital plane and the plasma equator. However, volcanic activities on Io show strong correlation with the equatorward shift of Jupiter's main auroral oval, consequently causing the disappearance of Io's footprint. The same conclusion was suggested via the observation of Jupiter's hectometric radio emission, called HOM, which closely corresponds to Jupiter's auroral activity. The plasma environment near the Jovian satellites was found to vary significantly at different observational epochs. The electron density increased by approximately a factor of three from the Voyager epoch (1979) to the Galileo epoch (1995), while the electron density was found to be significantly higher (~ 5 times) in the Cassini epoch (2001). In this current study, the magnetic footprints were clearly brighter ten years ago (from peak brightness in 1998-2001) than the footprints detected in 2007. For volcanic activities on Io in 2007, there are two clear activities in February and late May. The magnetic footprint appeared to be dimmer in March 2007, expected to be the result of volcano activities in Feb 2007. However, the magnetic footprint brightness in June appeared to be slightly brighter than the footprints observed in May. The reason could be the time delay between the brightening of the sodium nebula on approximately May 31st and, a while later, the enhancement of flux tube content peaking on approximately June 5th. On the other hand, Io's magnetic footprints were observed during June 1st - 10th when they may not yet have been affected by the increase in mass outflow due to the increase of plasma density.

The Hayabusa 2 mission target asteroid (162173) Ryugu is a near-Earth, carbonaceous (C-type) asteroid. Before the arrival, this asteroid is expected to be covered with mm- to cm- sized grains through the thermal infrared observations [1]. These grains are widely understood to be formed by past impacts with other celestial bodies and fractures induced by thermal fatigue [2]. However, the close-up images by the MASCOT lander showed lumpy boulders but no abundant fine grains [3]. Morota et al. suggested that there would be submillimeter particles on the top of these boulders but not resolved by Hayabusa 2's onboard instruments [4]. Hence, we conducted polarimetry of Ryugu to investigate microscopic grain sizes on its surface. Polarimetry is a powerful tool to estimate physical properties such as albedo and grain size. Especially, it is known that the maximum polarization degree (Pmax) and the geometric albedo (pV) show an empirical relationship depending on surface grain sizes [5]. We observed Ryugu from UT 2020 November 30 to December 10 at large phase angles (ranging from 78.5 to 89.7 degrees) to derive Pmax. We modified TRIPOL (Triple Range Imager and POLarimeter, [6]) to attach to the 1.8-m telescope at the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO). With this instrument, we observed the asteroid and determined linear polarization degrees at the Rc-band filter. We obtained sufficient data sets from 7 nights at this observatory to determine the Pmax value, and collaborated with other observatories in Japan (i.e., Hokkaido University, Higashi-Hiroshima, and Nishi-Harima) to acquire linear polarization degrees of the asteroid from total 24 nights observations with large phase angle coverage (From 28 to 104 degrees). The observational results have been published in Kuroda et al. (2021) [7]. We thus found the dominance of submillimeter particles on the surface of Ryugu from the comparison with other meteorite samples from the campaign observation. In this presentation, we report our activity to modify the TRIPOL for the 1.8-m telescope and the polarimetric performance. We also examine the rotational variability of the polarization degree using the TRIPOL data.

${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ described Tae Hue(太虛) cosmos which consist of the Great Gi(大氣) produce ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ which affected by the theory of activity of Gi(氣化說) in the Han period represent that Tae Hue is spring head of Gi(氣), concurrently said the Time and the Space were established by operating of Gi(氣). As of the Theories of heavenly structure, ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ was write in long perod, so it include three branch theory. ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ contained the Hypothesis of Covering Heaven(蓋天說), the Hypothesis of Armillary Sphere(渾天說) and the Hypothesis of Chaosheavens(宣夜說) in the Han perod. The Hypothesis of Covering Heaven(蓋天說) means that the sky is round and the ground falls Square(天圓地方). ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ involve the Hypothesis of Covering Heaven by the fact that it divide heaven and earth by top and bottom. The Hypothesis of Armillary Sphere(蓋天說) is not directly appeared in ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$. But ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ include the Hypothesis of Armillary Sphere by the astronomical observation and understand the universe with interior-exterior viewpoint. ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ describe the circulation of the universe (周天度數) at 365 1/4 terms, the length of daytime and night of the vernal equinox and the autumnal equinox is same and use the The Twenty Eight Constellations by the ecliptic(黃道). It prove that ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ observes the celestial body according to the Hypothesis of Armillary Sphere. The Hypothesis of Chaosheavens(宣夜說) appears most is the theory which lately. ${\ulcorner}$Hwangje-Naegyeong${\lrcorner}$ describe Tae Hue(太虛) infinite outer space and the earth is floating by Gi(氣). This with the Hypothesis of Chaosheavens is similar from like this point.

본 연구는 현대 과학 교육의 탐구 활동에서 관찰 또는 탐색의 역할이 강조되고 있는 것과 과학 탐구 소재 확장의 필요성에 의해 진행되었다. 이에 본 연구는 예술 작품을 활용한 탐구 프로그램을 개발, 적용하여 귀추 과정 중 학습자들의 탐색 특징을 자세히 분석했다. 동양화, 서양화, 신화, 관현악, 전통 가옥을 소재로 한 '미술관으로 간 과학자' 프로그램이 개발되었으며, 방과 후 과학 교실에 다니는 중학생 5명이 참여했다. 연구 결과, 작품 속 주목할 만한 현상을 탐색한 학습자들은 탐색 특징에 따라 크게 세 유형으로 나뉘었다. 과학 개념에 쉽게 연결할 수 있는 내용을 관찰, 기술한 학습자가 있는 반면, 과학 개념과 상대적으로 거리가 먼 일상적 요소를 주로 관찰한 학습자도 있었다. 자신들의 주관적 평가와 의견을 바탕으로 작품을 탐색한 학습자도 있었는데 이들은 자신의 감상 의견을 중심으로 작품을 탐색하는 특징을 보였다. 연구의 결론 및 시사점으로 탐구 활동에서 시각적으로 관찰할 수 없는 소재의 비적합성, 학습자들의 선 지식이 탐색 활동에 미치는 영향, 지구과학 탐구 소재의 확장 가능성 등을 제시했다. 본 연구는 천문학을 중심으로 한 귀추 탐구에서 학습자들의 탐색 특징을 살펴봄으로써 다양한 내용과 방법의 지구과학 학습을 제시하고, 특히 귀추가 천문 학습에 적절히 활용될 수 있는 가능성을 제시한다.
