Why care about stellar halos? Laboratory to test hierarchical galaxy formation –Tidal debris of merging galaxies survive for several Gyrs in the halo since the dynamical timescale is long there –Orbit of stream structure strong constraint for the gravitational potential of the galaxy –How frequent do merging events occur? Bullock & Johnston. 2005.

Color-Magnitude Diagram North-West Tanaka+ 2008 The width of RGB gets narrower as it goes outkirts –indicating metallicity gradient exists Our survey goes well below Red Clump

Features in Color-Magnitude Diagram AGB bump (AGBb): Clustered feature of AGB stars at the beginning of He shell-burning evolution Red Clump: Clustered feature of red HB (He core-burning) stars being metal- rich / young age age indicator of stellar population (once metallicity is determined) Suprime-Cam data enable us to investigate the properties of stellar population AGB bump Red clump Tanaka+ 2007b AGBb RGBb HB Alves & Sarajedini 1999 Mean Age ~ 9.6 Gyr

HSC M31 Halo Ultimate Imaging Survey HSC can image as deep as below HB/RC in 1 hour under moderate seeing condition (~0”.7) 81 HSC (2deg case) pointings are required to cover 254 sqrdeg (x2 the field size of Ibata et al. 2007 survey) Total: 20 nights required –2 color bands (V, I)
16
With DDO51 filter, M31 RGB stars are easily discriminated from Galactic dwarf stars. DDO51 filter giants dwarfs giants dwarfs
17
Toward Nearby Groups Similar investigation can be applied for galaxies in nearby groups. HSC is suitable for such observations; –1.5deg corresponds to 130kpc @ 5Mpc –TRBG ~ 24 mag, HB ~ 28 mag @ 5Mpc Structure of nearby galaxies (M31 to nearby groups) –More sample galaxies –Dependence on morphology –Dependence on environment LG Sculpter Maffei M81 Canes1 N5128 5Mpc

Ultra Faint Dwarf Galaxies SDSS: discoveries of Milky Way companion dwarf “galaxies” comparable or even fainter than globular clusters! –“they might be just the first of a vast population of ultra- faint dwarf galaxies surrounding the Milky Way system that is yet to be discovered” (van den Bergh) Belokurov+ 2007 Globular Clusters SDSS
