The Overdense Environment of a Large Lyman-alpha Nebula at z~2.7
M. K. M. Prescott, N. Kashikawa, A. Dey +1
Large nebulae (>50 kpc) emitting strongly in Lya (also known as Lya ``blobs'') are likely signposts of ongoing massive galaxy formation. The relative rarity of these sources and th…
A galaxy at a redshift z = 6.96
Masanori Iye, Kazuaki Ota, Nobunari Kashikawa +7
When galaxy formation started in the history of the Universe remains unclear. Studies of the cosmic microwave background indicate that the Universe, after initial cooling (followin…
Luminosity Functions of Lyman-Break Galaxies at z~4 and 5 in the Subaru Deep Field
Makiko Yoshida, Kazuhiro Shimasaku, Nobunari Kashikawa +3
We investigate the luminosity functions of Lyman-break galaxies (LBG) at z~4 and 5 based on the optical imaging data obtained in the Subaru Deep Field Project. Three samples of LBG…
The End of the Reionization Epoch Probed by Ly-alpha Emitters at z=6.5 in the Subaru Deep Field
N. Kashikawa, K. Shimasaku, M. A. Malkan +16
We report an extensive search for Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) at z=6.5 in the Subaru Deep Field. Subsequent spectroscopy with Subaru and Keck identified eight more LAEs, giving a t…
A Keck/DEIMOS Spectroscopy of Lyman Alpha Blobs at Redshift z=3.1
Yuichi Matsuda, Toru Yamada, Tomoki Hayashino +2
We present the results of an intermediate resolution (~2 angstrom) spectroscopy of a sample of 37 candidate Lyman alpha blobs and emitters at redshift z=3.1 using the DEIMOS spectr…
Large-scale Filamentary Structure around the Protocluster at Redshift z=3.1
Y. Matsuda, T. Yamada, T. Hayashino +10
We report the discovery of a large-scale coherent filamentary structure of Lyman alpha emitters in a redshift space at z=3.1. We carried out spectroscopic observations to map the t…
