Center for Astronomy

Vision & Objectives Maintain the number 1 status in Korea. Aim to be a world-class astronomy institute. Regarding Yonsei-Oxford collaboration Tight collaborations between Yonsei and Oxford already exist in Astronomy Each year, multiple collaborative papers are being published and personnel are exchanged to boost the research activities on both. We are certain that our case sets a good example/standard for the Yonsei-Oxford university level collaboration.

Organization and Participants KH Choi SW Kim SY Park Y Byun YW Lee S Yi YC Kim S. Yi YW Lee S Yi YJ Sohn SJ Yoon Galaxies Stellar evolution Space astronomy Survey astronomy

Research Fields (I) Survey and observational astronomy Official partner of GALEX UV survey mission Co-operating CTIO 4m Blanco telescope Hosting a 21m KVN radio telescope on campus YSTAR global survey network PI institute Collaborate with Oxford on Sauron and Galex projects

Research Fields (II) Theoretical astrophysics PI institute of the Y 2 Isochrones (world’s most used stellar evolution models) The largest stellar evolution model database Hydrodynamic models for stellar convection Formation and evolution of galaxies Population synthesis models
