| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this research is to perform a multi-wavelength, high-resolution study on the internal structures of galaxies in distant cluster environments at the peak epoch of the cosmic star formation history (~10-Gyrs ago). We carried out integral field unit spectroscopy (3-D spectroscopy) as well as sharp imaging observations assisted by adaptive optics with 8m-class telescopes, and unveiled the internal geometry of star-forming activity within young cluster galaxies. We published three refereed papers related to this project during the supported research period.
