We present a new catalog of $9318$ Ly$alpha$ emitter (LAE) candidates at $z = 2.2$, $3.3$, $4.9$, $5.7$, $6.6$, and $7.0$ that are photometrically selected by the SILVERRUSH program with a machine learning technique from large area (up to $25.0$ deg$^2$) imaging data with six narrowband filters taken by the Subaru Strategic Program with Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC SSP) and a Subaru intensive program, Cosmic HydrOgen Reionization Unveiled with Subaru (CHORUS). We construct a convolutional neural network that distinguishes between real LAEs and contaminants with a completeness of $94$% and a contamination rate of $1$%, enabling us to efficiently remove contaminants from the photometrically selected LAE candidates. We confirm that our LAE catalogs include $177$ LAEs that have been spectroscopically identified in our SILVERRUSH programs and previous studies, ensuring the validity of our machine learning selection. In addition, we find that the object-matching rates between our LAE catalogs and our previous results are $simeq 80$-$100$% at bright NB magnitudes of $lesssim 24$ mag. We also confirm that the surface number densities of our LAE candidates are consistent with previous results. Our LAE catalogs will be made public on our project webpage.

We investigate Lya, [OIII]5007, Ha, and [CII]158um emission from 1124 galaxies at z=4.9-7.0. Our sample is composed of 1092 Lya emitters (LAEs) at z=4.9, 5.7, 6.6, and 7.0 identified by Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) narrowband surveys covered by Spi tzer large area survey with Subaru/HSC (SPLASH) and 34 galaxies at z=5.148-7.508 with deep ALMA [CII]158um data in the literature. Fluxes of strong rest-frame optical lines of [OIII] and Ha (Hb) are constrained by significant excesses found in the SPLASH 3.6 and 4.5um photometry. At z=4.9, we find that the rest-frame Ha equivalent width and the Lya escape fraction f_Lya positively correlate with the rest-frame Lya equivalent width EW^0_Lya. The f_Lya-EW^0_Lya correlation is similarly found at z~0-2, suggesting no evolution of the correlation over z~0-5. The typical ionizing photon production efficiency of LAEs is logxi_ion/[Hz erg^-1]~25.5 significantly (60-100%) higher than those of LBGs at a given UV magnitude. At z=5.7-7.0, there exists an interesting turn-over trend that the [OIII]/Ha flux ratio increases in EW^0_Lya~0-30 A, and then decreases out to EW^0_Lya~130 A. We also identify an anti-correlation between a [CII] luminosity to star-formation rate ratio (L_[CII]/SFR) and EW^0_Lya at the >99% confidence level. We carefully investigate physical origins of the correlations with stellar-synthesis and photoionization models, and find that a simple anti-correlation between EW_Lya^0 and metallicity explains self-consistently all of the correlations of Lya, Ha, [OIII]/Ha, and [CII] identified in our study, indicating detections of metal-poor (~0.03 Zo) galaxies with EW^0_Lya~200 A.
We report the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) discovery of two Ly$alpha$ blobs (LABs), dubbed z70-1 and z49-1 at $z=6.965$ and $z=4.888$ respectively, that are Ly$alpha$ emitters with a bright ($log L_{rm Lyalpha}/{rm [erg s^{-1}]}>43.4$) and spatiall y-extended Ly$alpha$ emission, and present the photometric and spectroscopic properties of a total of seven LABs; the two new LABs and five previously-known LABs at $z=5.7-6.6$. The z70-1 LAB shows the extended Ly$alpha$ emission with a scale length of $1.4pm 0.2$ kpc, about three times larger than the UV continuum emission, making z70-1 the most distant LAB identified to date. All of the 7 LABs, except z49-1, exhibit no AGN signatures such as X-ray emission, {sc Nv}$lambda$1240 emission, or Ly$alpha$ line broadening, while z49-1 has a strong {sc Civ}$lambda$1548 emission line indicating an AGN on the basis of the UV-line ratio diagnostics. We carefully model the point-spread functions of the HSC images, and conduct two-component exponential profile fitting to the extended Ly$alpha$ emission of the LABs. The Ly$alpha$ scale lengths of the core (star-forming region) and the halo components are $r_{rm c}=0.6-1.2$ kpc and $r_{rm h}=2.0-13.8$ kpc, respectively. The average $r_{rm h}$ of the LABs falls on the extrapolation of the $r_{rm h}$-Ly$alpha$ luminosity relation of the Ly$alpha$ halos around VLT/MUSE star-forming galaxies at the similar redshifts, suggesting that typical LABs at $zgtrsim5$ are not special objects, but star-forming galaxies at the bright end.
We conduct intensity mapping to probe for extended diffuse Ly$alpha$ emission around Ly$alpha$ emitters (LAEs) at $zsim2-7$, exploiting very deep ($sim26$ mag at $5sigma$) and large-area ($sim4.5$ deg$^2$) Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam narrow-band (NB) im ages and large LAE catalogs consisting of a total of 1781 LAEs at $z=2.2$, $3.3$, $5.7$, and $6.6$ obtained by the HSC-SSP SILVERRUSH and CHORUS projects. We calculate the spatial correlations of these LAEs with $sim1-2$ billion pixel flux values of the NB images, deriving the average Ly$alpha$ surface brightness (${rm SB_{Lyalpha}}$) radial profiles around the LAEs. By carefully estimating systematics such as fluctuations of sky background and point spread functions, we detect diffuse Ly$alpha$ emission ($sim10^{-20}-10^{-19}$ erg s$^{-1}$ cm$^{-2}$ arcsec$^{-2}$) at $100-1000$ comoving kpc around $z=3.3$ LAEs at the $4.1sigma$ level and tentatively ($sim2sigma$) at the other redshifts, beyond the virial radius of a dark-matter halo with a mass of $10^{11} M_odot$. While the observed ${rm SB_{Lyalpha}}$ profiles have similar amplitudes at $z=2.2-6.6$ within the uncertainties, the intrinsic ${rm SB_{Lyalpha}}$ profiles (corrected for the cosmological dimming effect) increase toward high redshifts. This trend may be explained by increasing hydrogen gas density due to the evolution of the cosmic volume. Comparisons with theoretical models suggest that extended Ly$alpha$ emission around a LAE is powered by resonantly scattered Ly$alpha$ photons in the CGM and IGM that originates from the inner part of the LAE, and/or neighboring galaxies around the LAE.
We have conducted a comprehensive survey of emission-line galaxies at $zlesssim1.6$ based on narrowband (NB) imaging data taken with Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) on the Subaru telescope. In this paper, we update the catalogs of H$alpha$, [OIII], and [OII] emission-line galaxies using the data from the second Public Data Release (PDR2) of Subaru Strategic Program (SSP) of HSC and Cosmic HydrOgen Reionization Unveiled with Subaru (CHORUS) survey along with the spectroscopic redshifts for 2,019 emission-line galaxies selected with the PDR1 data. The wider effective coverage of NB816 and NB921, 16.3 deg$^2$ and 16.9 deg$^2$ respectively, are available in the Deep and UltraDeep layers of HSC-SSP from the PDR2. The CHORUS survey provides us with data with additional three NBs (NB527, NB718, and NB973) in the COSMOS field in the UltraDeep layer (1.37 deg$^2$). The five NB datasets allow us to investigate the star-forming galaxies presenting emission-lines at 14 specific redshifts ranging from $zsim1.6$ down to $zsim0.05$. We revisit the distribution of large-scale structures and luminosity functions (LFs) for the emission-line galaxies with the large samples of 75,377 emission-line galaxies selected. The redshift revolution of LFs shows that the star formation rate densities (SFRDs) decreases monotonically from $zsim1.6$, which is consistent with the cosmic SFRD ever known. Our samples of emission-line galaxies covering a sufficiently large survey volume are useful to investigate the evolution of star-forming galaxies since the cosmic noon in a wide range of environments including galaxy clusters, filaments, and voids.
We present the Ly$alpha$ luminosity functions (LFs) at $z=$5.7 and 6.6 derived from a new large sample of 1,266 Ly$alpha$ emitters (LAEs) identified in total areas of 14 and 21 deg$^2$, respectively, based on the early narrowband data of the Subaru/H yper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey. Together with careful Monte-Carlo simulations that account for the incompleteness of the LAE selection and the flux estimate systematics in the narrowband imaging, we have determined the Ly$alpha$ LFs with the unprecedentedly small statistical and systematic uncertainties in a wide Ly$alpha$ luminosity range of $10^{42.8-43.8}$ erg s$^{-1}$. We obtain the best-fit Schechter parameters of $L^{*}_{{rm Lya}}=1.6^{+2.2}_{-0.6} (1.7^{+0.3}_{-0.7}) times10^{43}$ erg s$^{-1}$, $phi^{*}_{{rm Lya}}=0.85^{+1.87}_{-0.77} (0.47^{+1.44}_{-0.44})times10^{-4}$ Mpc$^{-3}$, and $alpha=-2.6^{+0.6}_{-0.4} (-2.5^{+0.5}_{-0.5})$ at $z=5.7$ ($6.6$). We confirm that our best-estimate Ly$alpha$ LFs are consistent with the majority of the previous studies, but find that our Ly$alpha$ LFs do not agree with the high number densities of LAEs recently claimed by Matthee/Santos et al.s studies that may overcorrect the incompleteness and the flux systematics. Our Ly$alpha$ LFs at $z=5.7$ and $6.6$ show an indication that the faint-end slope is very steep ($alpha simeq -2.5$), although it is also possible that the bright-end LF results are enhanced by systematic effects such as the contribution from AGNs, blended merging galaxies, and/or large ionized bubbles around bright LAEs. Comparing our Ly$alpha$ LF measurements with four independent reionization models, we estimate the neutral hydrogen fraction of the IGM to be $x_{rm HI}=0.3pm0.2$ at $z=$6.6 that is consistent with the small Thomson scattering optical depth obtained by Planck 2016.
