“New observing System to support VDIF specifications with 10 GbE for VERA, JVN and KJJVC”
Abstract
Japanese real-time VLBI network OCTAVE (Optically Connected Array for VLBI Exploration) has been developed VLBI observation Systems (OCTAVE-Families) to support the VDIF specifications. The Octave systems consist of a high speed 8-Gsps 3-bit ADC (OCTAD) enable us to acquire not only wide intermediate frequency but also radio frequency up to 50 GHz, a converter (OCTAVIA) between one 10 GbE port and four 2 Gbps input and output ports conformable to VSI-H and new recorders (OCTADISK and VSREC) at a rate of 4.5 Gbps and above 8 Gbps and high speed software correlator system (OCTACOR) . These OCTAVE systems are connected with VDIF (Vlbi Data Interchange Format) specifications via 10 GbE network. These components are used for VERA, JVN(Japanese VLBI network) and KJJVC (Korea-Japan Joint VLBI Correlator).
I will report the detailed performances and results of test VLBI observations.

Rotational Behavior of Halo Blue Horizontal Branch Stars in the Milky Way
Abstract
The stellar halo of the Milky Way (MW) contains a lot of information on the formation and evolution the MW itself, since it consists of oldest stars in the MW and its approximate collisionless nature has conserved the kinematic properties.
Recently, Carollo et al. (2010) study the kinematics of one of the largest set of nearby halo stars from SDSS Data Release 7.
Based on their decomposition analysis, they find that the stellar halo consists of at least two components (inner and outer halo) with different kinematic and chemical properties as follows:
(1) The inner halo consists of metal-rich stars (<[Fe/H]> ~ -1.6) which show no net rotation (V_phi = 0 km/s) with respect to the Galactic center;
(2) The outer halo consists of metal-poor stars (<[Fe/H]> ~ -2.2) which show significantly retrograde rotation (V_phi = -80 km/s).
They expect that inner halo originates from a chaotic major merger at the last stage of formation of proto-galactic clump, while outer halo form via accretion and disruption of smaller stellar systems such as dwarf galaxies or globular clusters.
Interestingly, an increasing number of cosmological simulations of MW-sized galaxies support Carollo et al.’s result that metal-poor halo stars tend to rotate more slowly than metal-rich stars do (e.g. McCarthy et al. 2012).
However, we have to note that Carollo et al.’s result might be affected by observational errors, since their sample stars rely on the ground-based proper-motion data, which are not as accurate as line-of-sight velocity data (e.g., Schonrich et al. 2011).
In this presentation, I will talk about another method to derive the rotational behavior of halo stars in the Milky Way, based on line-of-sight velocity alone (i.e., without using proper-motion).
We use ~2,500 Blue Horizontal Branch (BHB) stars from SDSS Data Release 8 and find that metal-poor BHB stars rotates significantly slower than metal-rich BHB stars, which supports the Carollo et al.’s results.
We also find that mean rotational velocity of BHB stars decreases as a function of Galactocentric distance, which is similar to the result of Chiba & Beers (2000) who study the orbital motion of nearby halo stars.
I will discuss the physical interpretation of these data.
