研究開始時の研究の概要 |
We are furthering our understanding of the morphological properties of galaxies as a function of wavelength and cosmic time. With JWST, we are observing high redshift galaxies at rest-frame optical wavelengths with exceptional resolution. Secondly, we are investigating the relation between galaxy structure and stellar mass of the brightest cluster galaxies in the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program to better understand their growth and impact of their environments.

研究実績の概要 |
Using the JWST programs GLASS and COSMOS-WEB, the morphological characteristics of high redshift galaxies were investigated, particularly the relationship between stellar mass, star-formation rate, and UV slope. Dr. Yang compared their properties as a function of redshift and wavelength. The galaxies are observed to have a wide diversity of morphologies, with many exhibiting structures different from those seen in lower-redshift galaxies. From these studies, the potential of JWST is being realized to unveil unprecedented details of galaxy formation even in the distant universe. Dr. Yang further completed a study of the sizes of bright cluster galaxies using the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Survey. The results show remarkable consistency in their structure as a function of redshift.
