Stellar Stream and Halo Structure in the Andromeda Galaxy From a Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey
Yutaka Komiyama, Masashi Chiba, Mikito Tanaka +13
We present wide and deep photometry of the northwest part of the halo of the Andromeda galaxy (M31) using Hyper Suprime-Cam on the Subaru Telescope. The survey covers 9.2 deg…
Structure of the Milky Way stellar halo out to its outer boundary with blue horizontal-branch stars
Tetsuya Fukushima, Masashi Chiba, Daisuke Homma +6
We present the structure of the Milky Way stellar halo beyond Galactocentric distances of kpc traced by blue horizontal-branch (BHB) stars, which are extracted from the su…
Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey for An Optical Counterpart of GW170817
Nozomu Tominaga, Masaomi Tanaka, Tomoki Morokuma +31
We perform a -band survey for an optical counterpart of a binary neutron star coalescence GW170817 with Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam. Our untargeted transient search covers d…
Searches for New Milky Way Satellites from the First Two Years of Data of the Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey: Discovery of Cetus~III
Daisuke Homma, Masashi Chiba, Sakurako Okamoto +12
We present the results from a search for new Milky Way (MW) satellites from the first two years of data from the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program (SSP) ~d…
Sumo Puff: Tidal Debris or Disturbed Ultra-Diffuse Galaxy?
Johnny P. Greco, Jenny E. Greene, Adrian M. Price-Whelan +10
We report the discovery of a diffuse stellar cloud with an angular extent , which we term "Sumo Puff", in data from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic…
The Quasar Luminosity Function at Redshift 4 with Hyper Suprime-Cam Wide Survey
Masayuki Akiyama, Wanqiu He, Hiroyuki Ikeda +24
We present the luminosity function of z=4 quasars based on the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program Wide layer imaging data in the g, r, i, z, and y bands covering 339.8 deg^…
The Hyper Suprime-Cam SSP Survey: Overview and Survey Design
H. Aihara, N. Arimoto, R. Armstrong +139
Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) is a wide-field imaging camera on the prime focus of the 8.2m Subaru telescope on the summit of Maunakea in Hawaii. A team of scientists from Japan, Taiwan…
