    Abstract We present ionized gas properties of nine local ultra/luminous infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs) at z < 0.04 through Integral Field Unit (IFU) observations with KOOLS-IFU on the Seimei Telescope. The observed targets are drawn from the Great Observatories All-sky LIRG Survey (GOALS), covering a wide range of merger stages. We successfully detect emission lines such as Hβ, [O iii]λ5007, Hα, [N ii]λλ6549, 6583, and [S ii]λλ6717, 6731 with a spectral resolution of R = 1500–2000, which provides (i) a spatially resolved (∼200–700 pc) moment map of ionized gas and (ii) diagnostics for an active galactic nucleus (AGN) within the central ∼3–11 kpc in diameter for our sample. We find that the [O iii] outflow that is expected to be driven by an AGN tends to be stronger (i) towards the galactic center and (ii) as a sequence of the merger stage. In particular, the outflow strength in the late-stage (stage D) mergers is about 1.5 times stronger than that in the early-state (stage B) mergers, which indicates that galaxy mergers could induce AGN-driven outflow and play an important role in the co-evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes.

    In this work, our aim is to investigate the star formation rate (SFR) of the host galaxies of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the early Universe. To this end, we constructed a sample of 149 luminous (L2 − 10 keV > 1044 erg s−1) X-ray AGNs at z ≥ 3.5 selected in three fields with different depths and observed areas from the Chandra COSMOS Legacy survey, XMM-XXL North, and eROSITA Final Equatorial-Depth Survey. We built their spectral energy distributions (SED) using the available multi-wavelength photometry from X-rays up to the far-IR. Then, we estimated the stellar mass, M*, and the SFR of the AGNs using the X-CIGALE SED fitting algorithm. After applying several quality criteria, we ended up with 89 high-z sources. More than half (55%) of the X-ray sample have spectroscopic redshifts. Based on our analysis, our high-z X-ray AGNs live in galaxies with a median M* = 5.6 × 1010M and SFR* ≈ 240 Myr−1. The majority of the high-z sources (∼89%) were found inside or above the main sequence (MS) of star-forming galaxies. Estimations of the normalised SFR, SFRNORM, defined as the ratio of the SFR of AGNs, to the SFR of MS galaxies, show that the SFR of AGNs is enhanced by a factor of ∼1.8 compared to non-AGN star-forming systems. Combining our results with previous studies at lower redshifts, we confirmed that SFRNORM does not evolve with redshift. Using the specific black hole accretion rate (i.e. LX divided by M*), λBHAR, which can be used as a tracer of the Eddington ratio, we found that the majority of AGNs that lie inside or above the MS have higher specific accretion rates compared to sources below the MS. Finally, we found indications that the SFR of the most massive AGN host galaxies (log (M*/M) > 1011.5 − 12) remains roughly constant as a function of M*, in agreement with the SFR of MS star-forming galaxies.

    Abstract Recent observations have revealed an interesting active galactic nucleus (AGN) subclass that shows strong activity at large scales (∼1 kpc) but weaker at small scales (<10 pc), suggesting a strong change in the mass accretion rate of the central engine in the past 103–104 yr. We systematically search for such declining or fading AGNs by cross-matching the Sloan Digital Sky Survey type 1 AGN catalog at z < 0.4, covering the [O iii] λ5007 emission line, which is a tracer for the narrow-line region emission, with the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mid-infrared (MIR) catalog covering the emissions from the dusty tori. Out of the 7653 sources, we found 57 AGNs whose bolometric luminosities estimated from the MIR band are at least one order of magnitude fainter than those estimated from the [O iii] λ5007 emission line. This luminosity-declining AGN candidate population shows four important properties: (1) the past AGN activity estimated from the [O iii] λ5007 line reaches approximately the Eddington limit; (2) more than 30% of the luminosity-declining AGN candidates show a large absolute variability of ΔW1 > 0.45 mag in the previous ∼10 yr at the WISE 3.4 μm band; (3) the median ratio of log([N ii] λ6584/Hαλ6563) = −0.52, suggesting a lower gas metallicity and/or higher ionization parameter compared to other AGN populations; and (4) the second-epoch spectra of the population indicate a spectral type change for 15% of the sources. This population provides insights on the possible connection between the luminosity decline that started ∼103–104 yr ago and the decline in the recent 10 yr.

    Abstract In this paper, we use high-quality rest-UV spectra of three radio galaxies at z ∼ 3 observed with the FORS2 camera on the Very Large Telescope to measure the flux of several emission lines, including relatively faint ones, such as N iv]λ1486, O iii]λ1663, and [Ne iv]λ2424. Additionally, we collect fluxes of faint rest-UV emission lines in 12 z ∼ 3 radio galaxies from the literature. Previously, physical and chemical properties of narrow-line regions (NLRs) in high-z active galactic nuclei (AGNs) have been investigated mostly by using only strong rest-UV emission lines (e.g., N vλ1240, C ivλ1549, He iiλ1640, and C iii]λ1909). Such strong-line diagnostics are based on various assumptions due to the limitation in the number of available emission-line constraints. In this work, both physical and chemical properties of NLR clouds in each object are estimated by fitting detailed photoionization models to the measured emission-line fluxes. We confirm that the metallicity of NLRs in AGNs at z ∼ 3 is solar or supersolar, without assumptions about the gas density and ionization parameter thanks to the constraints from the faint emission lines. This result suggests that high-z radio galaxies are already chemically mature at z ∼ 3.

    X-rays offer a reliable method to identify active galactic nuclei (AGNs). However, in the high-redshift Universe, X-ray AGNs are poorly sampled due to their relatively low space density and the small areas covered by X-ray surveys. In addition to wide-area X-ray surveys, it is important to have deep optical data in order to locate the optical counterparts and determine their redshifts. In this work, we built a high-redshift (z ≥ 3.5) X-ray-selected AGN sample in the XMM-XXL northern field using the most updated [0.5–2 keV] catalogue along with a plethora of new spectroscopic and multi-wavelength catalogues, including the deep optical Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) data, reaching magnitude limits i ∼ 26 mag. We selected all the spectroscopically confirmed AGN and complement this sample with high-redshift candidates that are HSC g- and r-band dropouts. To confirm the dropouts, we derived their photometric redshifts using spectral energy distribution techniques. We obtained a sample of 54 high-z sources (28 with spec-z), the largest in this field so far (almost three times larger than in previous studies), and we estimated the possible contamination and completeness. We calculated the number counts (log N-log S) in different redshift bins and compared our results with previous studies and models. We provide the strongest high-redshift AGN constraints yet at bright fluxes (f0.5 − 2 keV > 10−15 erg s−1 cm−2). The samples of z ≥ 3.5, z ≥ 4, and z ≥ 5 are in agreement with an exponential decline model similar to that witnessed at optical wavelengths. Our work emphasises the importance of using wide-area X-ray surveys with deep optical data to uncover high-redshift AGNs.

    We investigate the X-ray active galactic nucleus (AGN) properties of millimeter galaxies in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey South (GOODS-S) field detected with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), by utilizing the Chandra 7-Ms data, the deepest X-ray survey to date. Our millimeter galaxy sample comes from the ASAGAO survey covering 26 arcmin2 (12 sources at a 1.2 mm flux-density limit of ≈ 0.6 mJy), supplemented by the deeper but narrower 1.3 mm survey of a part of the ASAGAO field by Dunlop et al. Ofthe 25 total millimeter galaxies, 14 have Chandra counterparts. The observed AGN fractions at z=1.5{--}3 are found to be {90}-19+8% and {57}-25+23% for the ultra-luminous and luminous infrared galaxies with log {L}{IR}/{L} = 12-12.8 and log {L}{IR}/{L} = 11.5-12, respectively. The majority (̃2/3) of the ALMA and/or Herschel detected X-ray AGNs at z = 1.5-3 appear to be star-formation-dominant populations, having {L}{ { X } }/ {L}{IR} ratios smaller than the “simultaneous evolution” value expected from the local black-hole-mass-to-stellar-mass ({M}{BH}-M *) relation. On the basis of the {L}{ { X } } and stellar mass relation, we infer that a large fraction of star-forming galaxies at z=1.5{--}3 have black hole masses that are smaller than those expected from the local {M}{BH}-M * relation. This contrasts previous reports on luminous AGNs at the same redshifts detected in wider and shallower surveys, which are subject to selection biases against lower luminosity AGNs. Our results are consistent with an evolutionary scenario in which star formation occurs first, and an AGN-dominant phase follows later, in objects that finally evolve into galaxies with classical bulges....

    The TMT Detailed Science Case describes the transformational science that the Thirty Meter Telescope will enable. Planned to begin science operations in 2024, TMT will open up opportunities for revolutionary discoveries in essentially every field of astronomy, astrophysics and cosmology, seeing much fainter objects much more clearly than existing telescopes. Per this capability, TMT's science agenda fills all of space and time, from nearby comets and asteroids, to exoplanets, to the most distant galaxies, and all the way back to the very first sources of light in the Universe. More than 150 astronomers from within the TMT partnership and beyond offered input in compiling the new 2015 Detailed Science Case. The contributing astronomers represent the entire TMT partnership, including the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA), the National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC), the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ), the University of California, the Association of Canadian Universities for Research in Astronomy (ACURA) and US associate partner, the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA).

    Efficient selection of emission line galaxies at z > 1 by photometric information in wide field surveys is one of the keys for future spectroscopic surveys to constrain dark energy using the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) signature. Here we estimate the H alpha and [O II] line luminosity functions of galaxies at z = 0.5-1.7 using a novel approach where multi-wavelength imaging data is used to jointly estimate both photometric redshifts and star-formation rates. These photometric estimates of line luminosities at high-redshift use the large data sets of the Subaru Deep Field and Subaru XMM-Newton Deep Field (covering \sim 1 deg^2) and are calibrated with the spectroscopic data of the local Sloan Digital Sky Survey galaxies. The derived luminosity functions (especially H alpha) are in reasonable agreement with the past estimates based on spectroscopic or narrow-band-filter surveys. This dataset is useful for examining the photometric selection of target galaxies for BAO surveys because of the large cosmological volume covered and the large number of galaxies with detailed photometric information. We use the sample to derive the photometric and physical properties of emission line galaxies to assist planning for future spectroscopic BAO surveys. We also show some examples of photometric selection procedures which can efficiently select these emission line galaxies.

    We present results of near-infrared photometry (J, H, K_S) for a sample of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) obtained from hard X-ray surveys with ASCA. The sample covers the AGNs at z=0.1-1 with L(2-10keV)=10^42-10^46 erg/s with very high completeness. The fraction of red (J-K_S>2 mag) AGNs in our sample is 2(+-1)%, which is comparable to that for optically- or UV-selected quasi-stellar objects (QSOs, i.e. luminous AGNs). The number of red AGNs found in our sample is also consistent with that expected from the surface density of red AGNs found in 2MASS by Cutri et al. (2001). We find that the anomalously-small dust-to-gas ratios in circumnuclear gas, which is seen in some AGNs with Seyfert-class luminosity, also occur in the QSOs (AGNs with luminosity of L(2-10keV) > 10^44.5 erg/s). For all the QSOs with an X-ray absorption of N_H > 10^22 /cm2 in our sample, the values of A_V/N_H are smaller than the Galactic value by a factor of 5 to 100. Since a fraction of this population among the QSOs in our sample is about 30%, such fraction of optical/UV-selected type 1 QSOs known to date may show type 2 nature in X-ray.

    The cosmological evolution of the hard X-ray luminosity function (HXLF) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is investigated in the 2-10 keV luminosity range of 10^<41.5> - 10^<46.5> erg s^<-1> as a function of redshift up to 3. From a combination of surveys conducted at photon energies above 2 keV with HEA01, ASCA and Chandra, we construct a highly complete (>96%) sample consisting of 247 AGNs over the wide flux range of 10^<-10> - 3.8 × 10^<-15> erg cm^<-2> s^<-1> (2-10 keV). We find that (i) the fraction of X-ray absorbed AGNs decreases with the intrinsic luminosity and (ii) the evolution of the HXLF of the whole AGNs (including both type-I and type-II AGNs) is best described with a luminosity dependent density evolution where the cutoff redshift increases with the luminosity. Our results directly constrain the evolution of AGNs that produce a major part of the hard X-ray background, thus solving its origin quantitatively. Based on these results, we discuss the formation history of supermassive black holes in galactic centers. The total accreted mass traced by the HXLF with an accretion mass-to-energy conversion factor of 0.1 is consistent with an estimate of SMBH mass density from the demography of galaxies in nearby universe.

    We investigate the cosmological evolution of the hard X-ray luminosity function (HXLF) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) in the 2-10 keV luminosity range of 10^{41.5} - 10^{46.5} erg s^-1 as a function of redshift up to 3. From a combination of surveys conducted at photon energies above 2 keV with HEAO1, ASCA, and Chandra, we construct a highly complete (>96%) sample consisting of 247 AGNs over the wide flux range of 10^{-10} - 3.8*10^{-15} erg cm^-2 s^-1 (2-10 keV). For our purpose, we develop an extensive method of calculating the intrinsic (before-absorption) HXLF and the absorption (N_H) function. This utilizes the maximum likelihood method fully correcting for observational biases with consideration of the X-ray spectrum of each source. We find that (i) the fraction of X-ray absorbed AGNs decreases with the intrinsic luminosity and (ii) the evolution of the HXLF of all AGNs (including both type-I and type-II AGNs) is best described with a luminosity dependent density evolution (LDDE) where the cutoff redshift increases with the luminosity. Our results directly constrain the evolution of AGNs that produce a major part of the hard X-ray background, thus solving its origin quantitatively. A combination of the HXLF and the NH function enables us to construct a purely "observation based" population synthesis model. We present basic consequences of this model, and discuss the contribution of Compton-thick AGNs to the rest of the hard X-ray background.

    We present the results of optical spectroscopic identifications of a bright subsample of 2-10keV hard X-ray selected sources from the ASCA Medium Sensitivity Survey in the northern sky. The flux limit of the subsample is 3*10^-13 erg s^-1 cm^-2 in the 2-10keV band. All but one of the 87 hard X-ray selected sources are optically identified, with AGNs, 7 clusters of galaxies, and 1 galactic star. It is the largest complete sample of hard X-ray selected AGNs at the bright flux limit. Amounts of absorption to their nuclei are estimated to be hydrogen column densities (N_H) of up to ~3*10^23 cm^-2 from their X-ray spectra. Optical properties of X-ray absorbed AGNs with N_H > 1*10^22 cm^-2 indicate the effects of dust absorption: at redshifts, z<0.6, AGNs without broad H\beta emission lines have significantly larger N_H value than AGNs with broad H\beta emission lines. At z>0.6, the X-ray absorbed AGNs have a large hard X-ray to optical flux ratio (log f2-10keV/fR > +1). However, three X-ray absorbed z>0.6 AGNs show strong broad lines. In combination with hard X-ray selected AGN samples from the ASCA Large Sky Survey, the ASCA Deep Survey in the Lockman Hole and Chandra Deep Field North, the luminosity distributions of absorbed and less-absorbed AGNs are compared.

    Deep hard X-ray and near infrared observations of a type-2 radio-quiet QSO candidate at z=0.9, AXJ08494+4454, are reported. The 0.5-10keV Chandra X-ray Observatory spectrum of AXJ08494+4454 is hard, and is explained well with a power-law continuum absorbed by a hydrogen column density of 2x10^23 cm^-2. The 2-10keV luminosity of the object reaches hard X-ray luminosity of QSOs. The large X-ray absorption and the large intrinsic luminosity support the original identification of AXJ08494+4454 as a type-2 radio-quiet QSO. Nevertheless, the deep Subaru/IRCS J-band spectroscopic observation suggests the presence of a strong broad H-alpha emission line from AXJ08494+4454. If real, the broad H-alpha emission line has a velocity width of 9400+-1000 km/s, which corresponds to a typical broad-Balmer line velocity width of a luminous QSO. The existence of the strong broad H-alpha line means that the object is not a type-2 QSO, but a luminous cousin of a Seyfert 1.9 galaxy in the source-frame optical spectrum. The Balmer decrement of broad lines, and the broad H-alpha emission to the hard X-ray luminosity ratio suggest that the nucleus is affected by dust extinction with A_V of 1-3 mag in the optical wavelength. The estimated amount of dust extinction is much smaller than that expected from the X-ray column density.

    The results of K-band-imaging observations of a candidate of an absorbed QSO at z=0.653, AX J131831+3341, are presented. The B-K color of the object is 4.85 mag, which is much redder than optically-selected QSOs. The K-band image shows nuclear and extended components, the same as in the optical V-, R-, and I-band images. The nuclear component (I-K = 4.29 mag) is much redder than the power-law models with energy indices of 0 to -1.0, which well reproduce the V-R and R-I optical colors of the nuclear component. A heavily absorbed (A_V = 3 mag) nucleus may emerge in the K-band, while optical light may originate from scattered nuclear light. The I-K color of the extended component is 2.2 mag, which is consistent with the post-starburst nature of the host galaxy, which is also suggested from the V-R and R-I colors of the extended component.

  4. Spatially resolved stellar mass buildup and quenching in massive disk galaxies over the last 10 Gyr revealed with spatially resolved SED fitting

    Despite decreasing cosmic star formation rate density over the last 10 Gyr, the stellar mass ($M_{*}$) buildups in galaxies were still progressing during this epoch. About 50\% of the current $M_{*}$ density in the universe was built over the last $\sim 8.7$ Gyr. In this research, we investigated the stellar mass buildup and quenching of spatially resolved regions within massive disk galaxies over the last 10 Gyr. We apply the spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting method to SEDs of sub-galactic regions in galaxies to derive the spatially resolved distributions of SFR and $M_{*}$ in the galaxies. This namely \textit{pixel-to-pixel SED fitting} method is applied to massive disk galaxies at $0.01<z<0.02$ and $0.8<z<1.8$. We found that massive disk galaxies tend to build their $M_{*}$ and quench their star formation progressively from the central region to the outskirts, i.e. \textit{inside-out} stellar mass buildup and quenching.

    We study the properties of very faint, sub-L* Lyman break galaxies at z~2-5 - thus far a largely neglected but numerically and energetically very important population. We find that the LBG luminosity function undergoes luminosity-dependent evolution: the number of luminous galaxies remains constant while the number of faint ones grows with time. The total UV luminosity density increases with cosmic time from at least z~5 until reaching a peak or a plateau around z~2 - behaviour that is governed by the sub-L* galaxies in the LF's "faint tail". Using broadband SED fitting we find a nearly-linear relationship between SFR and galaxy stellar mass at z~2. A typical L* LBG at z~2 shows a stellar mass of ~10^10M_sun, remarkably similar to the bimodality mass at low redshift. This similarity suggests that the mechanisms responsible for the galaxy bimodality at low-z may have also been at play at z~2.

  27. Host Galaxies of the High-redshift AGNs in the GOODS Fields

    DOI: 10.1086/431291  

    More details Close

    The star-formation rates and the stellar masses of the host galaxies of AGNs at high-redshifts are keys to understanding the evolution of the relation between the mass of the spheroidal component of a galaxy and the mass of its central black hole. We investigate the host galaxies of 31 AGNs with spectroscopic redshifts between 2 and 4 found in the deep Chandra surveys of the GOODS fields with the ACS images. The sample can be divided into 17 ``extended'' AGNs and 14 ``compact'' AGNs based on the concentration parameter defined as the difference between the aperture magnitudes with 0.07" and 0.25" diameter. We derive upper limits of the UV luminosities of the host galaxies of the ``compact'' AGN sample, and upper and lower limits of the UV luminosities of the host galaxies of the ``extended'' AGN sample.These limits are consistent with the knee of the luminosity function of the Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) at z=3, suggesting moderate star-formation rates, less than 40 Msolar/yr, in the host galaxies of the AGNs at 2<z_sp<4 without correcting the dust extinction. By combining the limits of the UV luminosities with the observed K-band magnitudes for the ``extended'' AGNs, we derive the upper and lower limits of the stellar masses of their host galaxies. The derived upper limits on the stellar masses range from 10^10 Msolar to 10^12 Msolar. The upper limits imply that the Mbulge-MBH relation of the high-redshift AGNs is different from that of the galaxies in the nearby universe or the average Eddington ratio of the high-redshift AGNs is higher than that of low-redshift AGNs with lower-luminosity.

    To understand luminous AGNs in the z<1 universe, the ASCA AGN samples are the best at present. Combining the identified sample of AGNs from ASCA Large Sky Survey and Medium Sensitivity Survey, the sample of hard X-ray selected AGNs have been expanded up to 108 AGNs above the flux limit of 10^{-13} erg s^{-1} cm^{-2} in the 2-10 keV hard X-ray band. We discuss the fraction of absorbed AGNs in the hard X-ray selected AGN sample, and nature of absorbed luminous AGNs.

    2001/01/04

    More details Close

    In this paper, results of optical identification of ASCA surveys are summarized. To understand luminous AGNs in the z<1 universe, the ASCA AGN sample is still better than samples of AGNs from deep Chandra or XMM-Newton surveys. Combining the identified sample of AGNs from ASCA Large Sky Survey and Medium Sensitivity Survey, the sample of hard X-ray selected AGNs have been expanded up to about 80 AGNs above the flux limit of 10^{-13} erg s^{-1} cm^{-2} in the 2-10keV band. One fifth of the ASCA AGNs are absorbed narrow-line AGNs. The luminosity distribution of the absorbed AGNs is limited below 10^{45} erg s^{-1}, though there are 14 non-absorbed broad-line AGNs are detected above the luminosity. The result suggests lack of absorbed luminous AGNs (deficiency of type 2 QSO).

    We demonstrate a new tomographic wavefront estimation algorithm, ”multi-timestep tomographic wavefront reconstruction", which achieve more accurate tomographic estimation in wide field of view, with a multi object adaptive optics system, RAVEN, on the Subaru telescope. We analyzed the wavefront measurements data of RAVEN, and found that (1) the turbulence pattern at each altitude layer can be regarded as moving with winds, and the pattern can be regarded as "frozen" in the time scale of 100ms. Those results indicate the multi-timestep tomographic wavefront reconstruction method is effective to enlarge the field of view of tomographic wavefront estimation.

    In order to realize simultaneous adaptive optics (AO) corrections for multiple objects in wide field view of next generation large ground based telescopes, we examined new methods of tomographic wavefront reconstruction. We found a new algorithm, which uses measurements from previous time step as additional information, can significantly improve the accuracy of the tomographic estimation and significantly widen the available field of view. For faster tomographic estimation with parallel processing with GPGPU, it is suggested that the necessary speed can be achieved by changing the initial guess for the conjugate gradient method used in the tomographic reconstruction and by increasing the number of parallel processing.

    We studied the star-formation and AGN activity of massive galaxies in the redshift range z=0.4-2, which were detected in a deep survey field using Subaru telescope. From them, we had selected ~1000 Luminous InfraRed (IR) Galaxies (LIRGs) and classified them into three populations; starbursts, starbursts coexisting with AGNs, and AGN-dominants. Super Massive Black Holes (SMBH) could already have grown in the LIRGs with AGNs at z>1.2.

    現在の最新宇宙論における重要問題はいくつかあるが、その最大のものは「宇宙のダークサイド(暗黒面)」という言葉で以下の三つにまとめることができる。すなわち、(1)宇宙を加速膨張させる「ダークエネルギー」、(2)宇宙の重力を支配する「ダークマター(暗黒物質)」、そして(3)宇宙の晴れ上がりから最初の天体形成と宇宙再電離をつなぐ「ダークエイジ(暗黒時代)」である。その中でも、ダークエネルギーは現代物理学の根源的な改訂につながる可能性すら秘めた、とくに重大な問題として認識されている。 すばる望遠鏡の新観測装置FMOSを用いたバリオン振動探査計画により、このダークエネルギーに迫る事ができると期待されている。本研究の目的は、このバリオン振動探査計画のサーベイデザインを検討し、FMOS完成の際にすみやかに観測提案書を作成する準備を進める事にある。 この目的のため、戸谷を中心に分光ターゲット銀河選定の手法や実現性を詳細にしらべた。「すばるディープフィールド」や、「すばるXMM-Newtonディープフィールド」と呼ばれる領域のすばる望遠鏡を中心とする膨大なデータをもとに、バリオン振動探査に使用できる銀河が十分に存在するかどうかを精査した。その結果、バリオン振動探査に十分な数の銀河があり、また、イメージングサーベイデータから測光的赤方偏移計算の手法により効率よく選択できる事も判明した。 また、メンバーがハワイに集まってミーティングを開催し、FMOS装置に対する理解を深めるとともに、今後の問題点を洗い出して計画の推進に役立てた。国際的な注目も高く、国際会議で進捗状況を報告した。

    すばる望遠鏡の多天体分光観測装置FOCASを用いて、すばるXMM-ニュートン深探査領域において見つかったX線源の可視分光観測を行い、X線源の距離、正体の決定をした。遠方宇宙にある活動銀河中心核が新たに多数発見された。特に、遠方宇宙に数多くの隠された活動銀河中心核があることが見えてきた。過去の観測結果に基づくモデルなどとの比較はこれから行う。結果は来年度に論文化する予定である。 また、遠方宇宙での銀河の進化の様子を調べるために、すばる望遠鏡の補償光学(アダプティブオピティクス、AO)と赤外線カメラIRCSを用いて、遠方銀河の撮像探査観測を行った。このデータ解析は現在進行中である。 さらに、GOODS深探査領域の活動銀河中心核の母銀河について、ハッブル宇宙望遠鏡を用いて得られた撮像データを用い、母銀河の星質量、星形成率を求めた。特に近傍宇宙で見られる銀河中心ブラックホールと銀河の質量の関係が遠方宇宙においてどのように変化しているかに注目した。結果、遠方宇宙の活動銀河核では、同じブラックホール質量で比較すると、銀河の星質量が近傍宇宙の活動銀河核に比べて小さいことがわかった。このことは銀河中心のブラックホールが先に形成され、銀河の形成が後に続くことを示唆している。ただし、遠方宇宙の活動銀河核では近傍宇宙のものよりもエディントン比が大きい、という仮定でも解釈できる結果であり、銀河とブラックホールの進化を明確に議論するにはさらに観測が必要である。
