| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to disclose the escape fraction of Lyman continuum (LyC) from distant galaxies, we fabricated a special narrow-band filter for Subaru Telescope Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC). Our plan was to carry out multiple narrow-band imaging observations to select star-forming galaxies at redshift around 3 and 5 and also to directly detect LyC from them. While the fabrication of the filter was completed successfully, the HSC observation was delayed and we could not conduct the planned LyC observation in time. On the other hand, we conducted search for LyC emitting galaxies using Subaru Suprime-Cam and the follow-up observations of the candidates, and revealed the existence of galaxies and active galactic nuclei with very strong LyC emission.
