K-DRIFT Science Theme: Illuminating the Next Era of Galaxy Cluster Science
Jaewon Yoo, Kyungwon Chun, Jongwan Ko +13
The KASI Deep Rolling Imaging Fast Telescope (K-DRIFT) is a pioneering instrument designed to explore low-surface-brightness (LSB) phenomena. This white paper presents a compelling…
Direct observational evidence that higher-luminosity type 1 active galactic nuclei are most commonly triggered by galaxy mergers
Yongmin Yoon, Yongjung Kim, Dohyeong Kim +2
We examine the connection between galaxy mergers and the triggering of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) using a sample of 614 type 1 AGNs at , along with a control sample of i…
K-DRIFT: Unveiling New Imagery of the Hidden Universe
Jongwan Ko, Woowon Byun, Kwang-Il Seon +31
Low-surface-brightness (LSB) structures play a crucial role in understanding galaxy evolution by providing significant insights into galaxy interactions, the histories of mass asse…
Modeling the Optical Colors of Galactic Cirrus Clouds in the Stripe 82 Region
Kwang-Il Seon, Jongwan Ko, Woowon Byun +2
Observations have shown that the optical colors of Galactic cirrus clouds differ significantly from those of extragalactic sources; thus, they can be used to distinguish Galactic c…
K-DRIFT Preparation: Experimental Verification of an Observation Strategy for Accurate Dark-Sky Flats
Woowon Byun, Kwang-Il Seon, Jongwan Ko
Despite its scientific importance, the low-surface-brightness universe has yet to be fully explored due to various systematic uncertainties that affect the achievable surface-brigh…
