| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
UltraVISTA is one of public surveys promoted by using the 4m infrared survey telescope, VISTA, located at ESO/VLT site in Chile. We have carried out wide-field imaging survey in the HST COSMOS field. Thanks to the wide-field survey, we have discovered a number of luminous star forming galaxies at z = 7. Our results give important insights on the early evolution of galaxies and the origin of cosmic reionization.
