◎ Procedure 1 . Setting mask, vacuuming, cool down 2 . Rotate corrousel for selecting mask 3.Gate valve opens, grab a mask by robot arm 4. pick up a mask, rotate, set to the focal plane 5. Close Gate valve, start obs. Room temperature test is successful (~15minutes.) Slit mask exchanging mechanism

First Light is soon. Current plan: early March, 2004 !!! MOIRCS Science Workshop: Feb. 27/28 in Sendai !!! Registeration deadline … Jan. 31, 2004 A planned GT science will be intensively introduced and discussed on WS. Contributions are greatly welcomed!

2. MOIRCS and FMOS Comparison for scientific purpose
20
MOIRCS and FMOS FMOS: R=700 - 2400zJH with OHS 400 in 30' FOV. MOIRCS: R=500 - 1300zJHK <50 in 4'x7' FOV. FMOS … sparsely distributed targets => e.g. Field Objects MOIRCS … high density region => e.g. Clusters ECHIDNA Rayout
21
MOIRCS and FMOS FOCAS F.O.V. Suprime-Cam F.O.V. MOIRCS FOV FMOS: Good match to Suprime-Cam --- photo-z MOIRCS: Good match to FOCAS --- optical spectroscopy
22
For General Field Survey MOIRCS & FOCAS … pensil beam survey for whole galaxies [rest optical spectra for all galaxies, but still large cosmic variance] FMOS & SpCam-WFCAM … much less cosmic variance [good for large-scale clustering, global cosmic SFR history, & follow-up of the rare objects (sub-mm sources/ EROs/ AGNs) but needs a careful target selection by photo-z] For Studies of Cluster environment … FMOS-MOIRCS joint observation is most efficient! *** Only FMOS can do an efficient follow-up of SupCam 30'x30'data ***

3. Distant Cluster Sudies as a Target of FMOS-MOIRCS Joint Project
24
Distant Clusters of Galaxies Topic: Star-formation activities in cluster environment Large-scale clustering and star-formation Early-epoch of clusters How the star-formation activities has ceased in clusters? What is the relationship between the dynamical evolution of clusters and the galaxy evolution in clusters? What properties do massive cluster galaxies have in their very young epoch?
25
SFR measurement: H H lines) … MOIRCS/FMOS absorption (continuum for z>1 FMOS OHS! ) High density regions … MOIRCS (z>1); FOCAS(z<1) Galaxies in the outskirts of clusters … FMOS Structure, cluster dynamics : often >10Mpc … FMOS! … no efficient way to do optical spectroscopy for faint galaxies! Complex cluster merger ・・・ < a few Mpc … MOIRCS For understanding galaxy evolution in cluster environment …

A supercluster at z=0.54 Connolly et al. (1996) Suprime-Cam data by the PISCES project (Kodama et al.) known clusters at z=0.54 Galaxies with photometric redshift~0.54 Galaxies with pectroscopic redshift~0.54

A supercluster search for a large QSO group at z=1.1 Area A. Area B. Area C. Our observed area by Suprime-Cam (i', z') 2 degrees LQG10 … group of 23 QSOs at z~1.1 (Crampton et al. 1989) : LSS at z~1.1? Pilot works by Tanaka et al. (2000,2001), Yamada et al. (1997)
29
Results Area AArea B i’-z’ color selection for old red glalaxies at z=1.1 … some hint for superstructure associated with LQG10 Density enhancement mildly traces QSO distribution
30
C-M Diagram Comparison with Passive Evolution Model by Kodama & Arimoto more likely to be at z~1.1
31
Area A. Area B. Area C. ? highest density peaks ・・・ MOIRCS/FOCAS is good Others … only sparsely distributed The whole structure / galaxy properies at the outskirts of clusters ==> ONLY FMOS can access!
32
Example of the hottest X-ray cluster RXJ 1347.5-1145 S-Z by Komatsu et al. (2001) Redshift by Cohen &Kneib (2002) SupCam data by Miyazaki (private) Substructure? 47 spectra … still not enough
33
Distant clusters …. More complex! Examples of two clusters at z=0.8 Gioia et al. (1999) PISCES project (Subaru press relase 2003)
34
Summary MOIRCS will soon achieve First Light (Workshop on 27-28 Feb.) FMOS, MOIRCS & Suprime-Cam can make up a good inter-collaborative project for intensive studies of cluster environments at z>1.
