Advances in dynamic gesture recognition technologies now make it possible to investigate freehand input techniques. This study tried understand how users manipulate digital content on a distant screen by hand interaction living room environment. While there have been many existing studies that techniques, we developed and applied novel methodology based combination of both an user elicitation conventional Wizard-of-Oz involved another non-technical for providing feedback.

In several recent observational studies on Type Ib/c supernovae (SNe Ib/c), the inferred ejecta masses have a peak value of 2.0 -- 4.0 $M_\odot$, in favor binary scenario for their progenitors rather than Wolf-Rayet star scenario. To investigate properties relatively low-mass helium stars systems as SN progenitors, we constructed atmospheric models with non-LTE radiative transfer code CMFGEN, using evolution models. We find that these can be characterized by narrow emission lines if...
Most stars form in multiple star systems. For a better understanding of their formation processes, it is important to resolve the individual protostellar components and surrounding envelope disk material at earliest possible epoch because history can be lost few orbital timescales. Here we present ALMA observational results young system, IRAS 04239+2436, where three well-developed large spiral arms were detected shocked SO emission. Along most conspicuous arm, accretion streamer was also...
ABSTRACT Recent high-resolution infrared space missions have revealed supernova remnants (SNRs) of diverse morphology in (IR) dust emission that are often very different from their X-ray appearance. The observed range infrared-to-X-ray (IRX) flux ratios SNRs is also wide. For a sample 20 Galactic SNRs, we obtain IR and properties investigate the physical causes for such large differences. We find IRX ( <?CDATA ${R}_{{\rm{IRX,obs}}}$?> <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
Abstract The Immersion GRating INfrared Spectrometer (IGRINS) is a compact, high-resolution ( R ∼ 45,000) near-infrared spectrograph spanning 1.45–2.45 μ m in single exposure.
