KOREA-CHILE COLLABORATION IN STELLAR ASTROPHYSICS
Picture

WORKSHOP RATIONALE

In the previous three years of 2015-2017, we carried out the Korea-Chile collaborative project to obtain high resolution spectra of a number of symbiotic stars using the Chilean facilities. Ms. Jeong-Eun Heo stayed in La Serena for about 10 months as visiting research assistant to the Gemini South Observatory, conducting observations and participating in many Chilean astronomical meetings. In particular, the international conference held in La Serena in 2017 was a successful one, raising interests in research on symbiotic stars and related objects.


In the year 2018, we reinitated the Korea-Chile collaborative research project funded by the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI). This 3 year project will be further strengthening the collaborative efforts to better understand the mass transfer and mass loss processes in symbiotic stars by adopting both the observational and theoretical approaches. In particular, Raman scattered features are of special importance, because new spectroscopic measurements of the mass loss rate can be made and crucial information about the matter distribution around the white dwarf and the giant can be gained through profile analyses. We are now in a position to perform systematic survey of extragalactic symbiotic objects exhibiting Raman features.


With this workshop we will check the current status of our collaborative research activities and discuss future plans, which we hope to make meaningful contributions to both the Korean and Chilean astronomical communities.
