Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research is aiming to reveal the role of the feedback process due to star formation in galaxy formation. To detect outflowing gas from the star-forming clumps in star-forming galaxies, we developed a novel multi-object slit module to install in between an adaptive optics system and a near-infrared spectrograph on board the Subaru telescope. By using a commercial digital micro-mirror device, the multi-object slit module is able to configure the slits at any location where the star-forming galaxies are located and acquire spectra from multiple objects simultaneously. It can also configure the slits at the several locations in the galaxies to acquire the spectra from the star-forming clumps. In this research, we have fabricated, assembled, and tested the multi-object slit module in a laboratory, and confirmed that the performance of the slit module is enough to detect the outflow from the star-forming clumps inside the star-forming galaxies.
