Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have made two Subaru/HSC narrowband filters, NB921 and NB973, that are difficult to be fabricated, and contributed to obtain the observing time for Subaru Strategic Program. Observations with these two narrowband filters allow us to study the cosmic reionization with the statistical quantities of luminosity/correlation functions derived from the sample of z~7 LAEs that is about 100 times larger than the previous studies, and to compare these physical quantities with the numerical simulations. On the other hand, we have revealed the late reionization history of the increasing neutral hydrogen at z~7, for the first time, from the rapid decrease of Lya emitting galaxy fraction (Ono et al. 2012) and the rapid evolution of Lya luminosity densities at z~7 based on the combination of the previously and newly obtained imaging and spectroscopic data.
