2. Epoch of Reionization  Cosmic Reionization: Neutral IGM ionized by the first luminous objects at 6 < z < 15 Evidence: CMB polarization (Komatsu+2009) + GP troughs (Fan+2006) + … Responsible sources for Reionization? (e.g. Finlator+2011)  High-z galaxies (z ≥ 6): HST + the largest ground-based telescopes A few hundred galaxies or candidates at z ≥ 6; many at z ≥ 7 (e.g. Oesch+2010; Bouwens+2011; Stark+2011; Yan+2011; and many others) Physical properties (e.g. Gonzalez+2010; Finkelstein+2011; McLure+2011) (Robertson+2011)

3.  SED modeling Difficulty: UV  near-IR, optical  mid-IR Model broad-band SEDs with HST and Spitzer a)HST: UV slope  young populations b)Spitzer: Balmer break  mature populations  Current issues: LBGs found by HST are very faint  no spec-z, probably no IRAC detections LBGs or LAEs found by ground-based telescopes are bright, but  usually do not have HST or Spitzer data (Egami+2005) Physical Properties of z ≥ 6 Galaxies

4.  Solution – bright, spec-confirmed galaxies: Subaru Deep Field: largest sample of spec-confirmed galaxies at z ≥ 6 Redshifts: remove one critical free parameter for SED modeling Brightness: ensure high-quality imaging data Bias: toward the most luminous galaxies  Outline: Subaru Deep Field (SDF) and its data Rest-frame UV and physical properties from HST and Spitzer Morphology This is the first systematic study of spec.-confirmed galaxies at z ≥ 6

5. Subaru Deep Field (SDF)  Spec. confirmed galaxies: > 50 LAEs at z ≈ 5.7 > 40 LAEs at z ≈ 6.5 > 30 LBGs at 6 < z < 6.5 1~2 LAE at z ≈ 7 1~2 LAEs at z ≈ 7.3  Optical imaging data: Area: > 800 arcmin 2 Broad-band data: BVRi≈28.5, z≈27.5, y≈26.5 (AB at 3σ); PSF≈0.6” Narrow-band data: NB816, NB921, NB973, etc.

6. Our plan  HST: F125W (F110W) and F160W Coverage: ~60 galaxies Current depth: 1 orbit (PIs Jiang and Egami) Final depth: 2 orbits (PI Jiang)  Spitzer: IRAC 1 and 2 Coverage > 60% of SDF Current depth: 3 hrs (PIs Jiang and Egami) Final depth: 6 hrs (PI Jiang)  Current sample: ~30 galaxies

9.  Photo. and Spec. measurements Galaxy model: Lyα line + power-law continuum + IGM absorption Data: all photometric data from i to H Results: Lyα strength + UV continuum and slope  M UV, EW, SFR, etc.

10. UV slope and Lyα EW  Rest-frame UV slope –1<β<–4; median –2.4 Fainter  steeper Faintest half sample: β ~ –3 LAEs have steeper β than LBGs  Rest-frame Lyα EW EW-luminosity relation

11. Lyα luminosities Photometric measurements vs. spectroscopic measurements (Jiang+2011)

12. (Kashikawa+2011) Lyα luminosity function (LF) Strong evolution of the LAE LF from z ≈ 5.7 to 6.5  Increasing neutral fraction of IGM ? UV LFLyα LF

13. (Kashikawa+2011) Lyα luminosity function (LF) Strong evolution of the LAE LF from z ≈ 5.7 to 6.5  Increasing neutral fraction of IGM ? UV LFLyα LF Corrected

14.  SED modeling Difficulty: UV  near-IR, optical  mid-IR Model broad-band SEDs with HST and Spitzer a)HST: UV slope  young populations b)Spitzer: Balmer break  mature populations (Egami+2005) Physical Properties of z ≥ 6 Galaxies (LBGs at z ≈ 7; Gonzalez+2010) (LBGs at z ≈ 6; Eyles+2007) (LAEs at z ≈ 5; Pirzkal+2007)
