Cosmological shocks form as an inevitable consequence of gravitational collapse during the large scale structure formation and cosmic-rays (CRs) are known to be accelerated at collisionless shocks via diffusive shock acceleration (DSA). We have calculated the evolution of CR modified shocks for a wide range of shock Mach numbers and shock speeds through numerical simulations of DSA in 1D quasi-parallel plane shocks. The simulations include thermal leakage injection of seed CRs, as well as pre-existing, upstream CR populations. Bohm-like diffusion is assumed. We show that CR modified shocks evolve to time-asymptotic states by the time injected particles are accelerated to moderately relativistic energies (p/mc <TEX>$\ge$</TEX> 1), and that two shocks with the same Mach number, but with different shock speeds, evolve qualitatively similarly when the results are presented in terms of a characteristic diffusion length and diffusion time. We find that <TEX>$10^{-4} - 10^{-3}$</TEX> of the particles passed through the shock are accelerated to form the CR population, and the injection rate is higher for shocks with higher Mach number. The CR acceleration efficiency increases with shock Mach number, but it asymptotes to <TEX>${\~}50\%$</TEX> in high Mach number shocks, regardless of the injection rate and upstream CR pressure. On the other hand, in moderate strength shocks (<TEX>$M_s {\le} 5$</TEX>), the pre-existing CRs increase the overall CR energy. We conclude that the CR acceleration at cosmological shocks is efficient enough to lead to significant nonlinear modifications to the shock structures.

We have developed a two fluid solar wind model from the Sun to 1 AU. Its basic equations are mass, momentum and energy conservations. In these equations, we include a wave mechanism of heating the corona and accelerating the wind. The two fluid model takes into account the power spectrum of Alfvenic wave fluctuation. Model computations have been made to fit observational constraints such as electron(<TEX>$T_e$</TEX>) and proton(<TEX>$T_p$</TEX>) temperatures and solar wind speed(V) at 1 AU. As a result, we obtained physical quantities of solar wind as follows: <TEX>$T_e$</TEX> is <TEX>$7.4{\times}10^5$</TEX> K and density(n) is <TEX>$1.7 {\times}10^7\;cm^{-3}$</TEX> in the corona. At 1 AU <TEX>$T_e$</TEX> is <TEX>$2.1 {\times} 10^5$</TEX> K and n is <TEX>$0.3 cm^{-3}$</TEX>, and V is <TEX>$511 km\;s^{-1}$</TEX>. Our model well explains the heating of protons in the corona and the acceleration of the solar wind.

We have searched for HI 21 cm line emission from shocked atomic gas associated with southern supernova remnants (SNRs) using data from the Southern Galactic Plane Survey. Among the 97 sources studied, we have detected 10 SNRs with high-velocity HI emission confined to the SNR. The large velocity and the spatial confinement suggest that the emission is likely from the gas accelerated by the SN blast wave. We also detected 22 SNRs which show HI emission significantly brighter than the surrounding regions over a wide (<TEX>$>10 km\;s^{-1}$</TEX>) velocity interval. The association with these SNRs is less certain. We present the parameters and maps of the excess emission in these SNRs. We discuss in some detail the ten individual SNRs with associated high-velocity HI emission.

The <TEX>$H_2S\;(2_{2,0} - 2_{1,1})$</TEX> line emission is observed to be strongly localized toward Sgr B2(M), and emissions from other positions in the more extended SgrB2 region are almost negligible. <TEX>$H_2S$</TEX> is thought to form effectively by the passage of the C-type shocks but to be quickly transformed to <TEX>$SO_2$</TEX> or other sulfur species (Pineau des Forets et al. 1993). Such a shock may have enhanced the <TEX>$H_2S$</TEX> abundance in Sgr B2(M), where massive star formation is taking place. But the negligible emission of <TEX>$H_2S$</TEX> from other observed positions may indicate that these positions have not been affected by shocks enough to produce <TEX>$H_2S$</TEX>, or if they have experienced shocks, <TEX>$H_2S$</TEX> may have transformed already to other sulfur-containing species. The <TEX>$SO_2\;22_{2,20} - 22_{1,21}$</TEX> line was also observed to be detectable only toward the (M) position. The line intensity ratios of these two molecules appear to be very similar at Sgr B2(M) and IRAS 16239-2422, where the latter is a region of low-mass star formation. This may suggest that the shock environment in these two star-forming regions is similar and that the shock chemistry also proceeds in a similar fashion in these two different regions, if we accept shock formation of these two species.

We have developed a wide-field imaging camera system, called WICZO, to monitor light of the night sky over extended period. Such monitoring is necessary for studying the morphology of interplanetary dust cloud and also the time and spatial variations of airglow emission. The system consists of an electric cooler a CCD camera with <TEX>$60\%$</TEX> quantum efficiency at 500nm, and a fish-eye lens with <TEX>$180^{\circ}$</TEX> field of view. Wide field imaging is highly desired in light of the night sky observations in general, because the zodiacal light and the airglow emission extend over the entire sky. This paper illustrates the design of WICZO, reports the result of its laboratory performance test, and presents the first night sky image, which was taken, under collaboration with Byulmaro Observatory, on top of Mt. Bongrae at Yongweol in January, 2004.

I address the issue of nonthermal processes in the large scale structure of the universe. After reviewing the properties of cosmic shocks and their role as particle accelerators, I discuss the main observational results, from radio to <TEX>$\gamma$</TEX>-ray and describe the processes that are thought be responsible for the observed nonthermal emissions. Finally, I emphasize the important role of <TEX>$\gamma$</TEX>-ray astronomy for the progress in the field. Non detections at these photon energies have already allowed us important conclusions. Future observations will tell us more about the physics of the intracluster medium, shocks dissipation and CR acceleration.

Several arguments have been presented in the literature to support the connection between radio halos and cluster mergers. The spectral index distributions of the halos in A665 and A2163 provide a new strong confirmation of this connection, i.e. of the fact that the cluster merger plays an important role in the energy supply to the radio halos. Features of the spectral index (flattening and patches) are indication of a complex shape of the radiating electron spectrum, and are therefore in support of electron reacceleration models. Regions of flatter spectrum are found to be related to the recent merger. In the undisturbed cluster regions, instead, the spectrum steepens with the distance from the cluster center. The plot of the integrated spectral index of a sample of halos versus the cluster temperature indicates that clusters at higher temperature tend to host halos with flatter spectra. This correlation provides further evidence of the connection between radio emission and cluster mergers.

We compare the results of the surveys of starless cores performed with CS (2-1) and (3-2) lines to study inward motions in the cores. The velocity shifts of the CS(3-2) and (2-1) lines with respect to <TEX>$N_2H^+$</TEX> are found to correlate well with each other and to have similar number distributions, implying that, in many cores, systematic inward motions of gaseous material may occur over a range of density of at least a factor <TEX>${\~}$</TEX>4. Fits of the CS spectra to a 2-layer radiative transfer model in ten infall candidates suggest that the median effective line-of-sight speed of the inward-moving gas is <TEX>${\~}0.07 km\;s^{-l}$</TEX> for CS (3-2) and <TEX>${\~} 0.04 km\;s^{-l}$</TEX> for CS(2-1). Considering that the optical depth obtained from the fits is usually smaller in CS(3-2) than in (2-1) line, this may indicate that CS(3-2) usually traces inner, denser gas with greater inward motions than CS(2-1) implying that many of the infall candidates have faster infall toward the center. However, this conclusion may not be representative of all starless core infall candidates, due to the statistically small number analyzed here. Further line observations will be useful to test this conclusion.

High-velocity clouds are flows of neutral hydrogen, located at high galactic latitudes, with large velocities (<TEX>$[VLSR]{\ge} 100 km/s$</TEX>) that do not match a simple model of circular rotation for our Galaxy. Numerical simulations have been performed for the last 20 years to study the details of their evolution, and their possible interaction with the Galactic disk. Here we present a brief review of the models that have been already published, and describe newly performed three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations.

Clusters of galaxies are storage rooms of cosmic rays. They confine the hadronic component of cosmic rays over cosmological time scales due to diffusion, and the electron component due to energy losses. Hadronic cosmic rays can be accelerated during the process of structure formation, because of the supersonic motion of gas in the potential wells created by dark matter. At the shock waves that result from this motion, charged particles can be energized through the first order Fermi process. After discussing the most important evidences for non-thermal phenomena in large scale structures, we describe in some detail the main issues related to the acceleration of particles at these shock waves, emphasizing the possible role of the dynamical backreaction of the accelerated particles on the plasmas involved.
