The workshop was a great success. Thank you very much to all the participants!!
Goal of the Workshop
Goal of the Workshop
The medium-band (MB) filters for Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) consist of 16 bands with Δλ~25 nm-50 nm that cover λ~400nm-1000nm. The combination of HSC MBs, HSC’s wide field of view, and the light-collecting power enabled by Subaru’s 8.2-m primary mirror will provide a unique data set, i.e., deep, wide R~20 hyperspectral imaging data.
The workshop aims to explore and discuss science cases that will be enabled by the HSC-MB survey. The current plan of HSC-MB survey is to carry out: 1) the first Subaru Intensive Program to conduct a wide (possibly deep) ~600 square degree survey with the bluest four bands (400nm - 500nm) to~25.5 mag, starting in the S26A semester; 2) the second Subaru Intensive Program to conduct a survey with 16 MBs, starting in the S28A semester. There is also a possibility that colleagues at the University of Hawaii, Keck, and Gemini community conduct coordinated surveys.
The baseline science cases are the detection of Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) and Lyman Alpha Emitters (LAEs), the identification of proto-clusters, and studies of AGN, Galactic archaeology, and star formation histories of galaxies at different epochs. The MB survey can provide calibration data, which is crucial for both ongoing and upcoming imaging surveys, including Euclid, Roman, Rubin, as well as JWST.
This workshop seeks to engage the broader community in identifying additional, compelling science cases that can leverage the unique capabilities of the HSC-MB system and especially highlight the promise of the reddest four filters, which have not been funded yet. A key goal will be to integrate these ideas into the observing strategy, survey design, and collaborative framework.
