Outline of Final Research Achievements

Using data taken with two wide-field optical cameras on the Subaru Telescope, I studied the properties of forming galaxies in ~ 800 - 3,000 million years-old universes. The galaxy samples used for this study are the largest ever obtained. The most important result is that the number density of galaxies was obtained as a function of luminosity and redshift. In addition, the origin of diffuse Lyman alpha halos around young galaxies was also identified; this is important to study the role of the matter around galaxies in galaxy evolution.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

遠方 (過去) の宇宙の多数の銀河のサンプルおよびそれに基づく銀河の光度や質量の統計は、銀河進化モデルへの制限につながるだけでなく、宇宙再電離という現象がいつどのように起きたかを明らかにする上でも役に立つ。今後のより遠方の銀河観測や、個々の銀河の詳細な観測のための基礎データともなる。
