We report an automated morphological classification of galaxies into S-wise spirals, Z-wise spirals, and non-spirals using big image data taken from Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Survey and a convolutional neural network(CNN)-based deep learning technique. The HSC i-band images are about 25 times deeper than those from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and have a two times higher spatial resolution, allowing us to identify substructures such as spiral arms and bars in galaxies at z>0.1. We train CNN classifiers by using HSC images of 1447 S-spirals, 1382 Z-spirals, and 51,650 non-spirals. As the number of images in each class is unbalanced, we augment the data of spiral galaxies by horizontal flipping, rotation, and rescaling of images to make the numbers of three classes similar. The trained CNN models correctly classify 97.5% of the validation data, which is not used for training. We apply the CNNs to HSC images of a half million galaxies with an i-band magnitude of i<20 over an area of 320 deg^2. 37,917 S-spirals and 38,718 Z-spirals are identified, indicating no significant difference between the numbers of two classes. Among a total of 76,635 spiral galaxies, 48,576 are located at z>0.2, where we are hardly able to identify spiral arms in the SDSS images. Our attempt demonstrates that a combination of the HSC big data and CNNs has a large potential to classify various types of morphology such as bars, mergers and strongly-lensed objects.

We first present a catalogue of photometric redshifts for 14.68 million galaxies derived from the 7-band photometric data of Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer using the nearest-neighbour algorithm. The redshift uncertainty is about 0.024 for galaxies of z<0.7, and steadily increases with redshift to about 0.11 at z~2. From such a large data set, we identify 21,661 clusters of galaxies, among which 5537 clusters have redshifts z>1 and 642 clusters have z>1.5, significantly enlarging the high redshift sample of galaxy clusters. Cluster richness and mass are estimated, and these clusters have an equivalent mass of M_{500} > 0.7*10^{14} Msun. We find that the stellar mass of the brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) in each richness bin does not significantly evolve with redshift. The fraction of star-forming BCGs increases with redshift, but does not depend on cluster mass.
We present the photometric properties of a sample of infrared (IR) bright dust obscured galaxies (DOGs). Combining wide and deep optical images obtained with the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) on the Subaru Telescope and all-sky mid-IR (MIR) images taken wi th Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), we discovered 48 DOGs with $i - K_mathrm{s} > 1.2$ and $i - [22] > 7.0$, where $i$, $K_mathrm{s}$, and [22] represent AB magnitude in the $i$-band, $K_mathrm{s}$-band, and 22 $mu$m, respectively, in the GAMA 14hr field ($sim$ 9 deg$^2$). Among these objects, 31 ($sim$ 65 %) show power-law spectral energy distributions (SEDs) in the near-IR (NIR) and MIR regime, while the remainder show a NIR bump in their SEDs. Assuming that the redshift distribution for our DOGs sample is Gaussian, with mean and sigma $z$ = 1.99 $pm$ 0.45, we calculated their total IR luminosity using an empirical relation between 22 $mu$m luminosity and total IR luminosity. The average value of the total IR luminosity is (3.5 $pm$ 1.1) $times$ $10^{13}$ L$_{odot}$, which classifies them as hyper-luminous infrared galaxies (HyLIRGs). We also derived the total IR luminosity function (LF) and IR luminosity density (LD) for a flux-limited subsample of 18 DOGs with 22 $mu$m flux greater than 3.0 mJy and with $i$-band magnitude brighter than 24 AB magnitude. The derived space density for this subsample is log $phi$ = -6.59 $pm$ 0.11 [Mpc$^{-3}$]. The IR LF for DOGs including data obtained from the literature is well fitted by a double-power law. The derived lower limit for the IR LD for our sample is $rho_{mathrm{IR}}$ $sim$ 3.8 $times$ 10$^7$ [L$_{odot}$ Mpc$^{-3}$] and its contributions to the total IR LD, IR LD of all ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs), and that of all DOGs are $>$ 3 %, $>$ 9 %, and $>$ 15 %, respectively.

We present the first results of the Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey of the interacting galaxy system, NGC4631 and NGC4656. From the maps of resolved stellar populations, we identify 11 dwarf galaxies (including already-known dwarfs) in the oute r region of NGC4631 and the two tidal stellar streams around NGC4631, named Stream SE and Stream NW, respectively. This paper describes the fundamental properties of these tidal streams. Based on the tip of red giant branch method and the Bayesian statistics, we find that StreamSE (7.10 Mpc in Expected a posteriori, EAP, with the 90% credible intervals of [6.22, 7.29] Mpc) and StreamNW (7.91 Mpc in EAP with the 90% credible intervals of [6.44, 7.97] Mpc) are located in front of and behind NGC4631, respectively. We also calculate the metallicity distribution of stellar streams by comparing the member stars with theoretical isochrones on the color-magnitude diagram. We find that both streams have the same stellar population based on the Bayesian model selection method, suggesting that they originated from a tidal interaction between NGC4631 and a single dwarf satellite. The expected progenitor has a positively skewed metallicity distribution function with [M/H]_EAP=-0.92 with the 90% credible intervals of [-1.46, -0.51]. The stellar mass of the progenitor is estimated as 3.7 x 10e+8 Msun with the 90% credible intervals of [5.8 x 10e+6, 8.6 x 10e+9] Msun based on the mass-metallicity relation for Local group dwarf galaxies. This is in good agreement with an initial stellar mass of the progenitor presumed in the previous N-body simulation.
The relationship between quasars and their host galaxies provides clues on how supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and massive galaxies are jointly assembled. To elucidate this connection, we measure the structural and photometric properties of the host galaxies of ~5000 SDSS quasars at 0.2<z<1 using five-band (grizy) optical imaging from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program. An automated analysis tool is used to forward-model the blended emission of the quasar as characterized by the point spread function and the underlying host galaxy as a two-dimensional Sersic profile. In agreement with previous studies, quasars are preferentially hosted by massive star-forming galaxies with disk-like light profiles. Furthermore, we find that the size distribution of quasar hosts is broad at a given stellar mass and the average values exhibit a size-stellar mass relation as seen with inactive galaxies. In contrast, the sizes of quasar hosts are more compact than inactive star-forming galaxies on average, but not as compact as quiescent galaxies of similar stellar masses. This is true irrespective of quasar properties including bolometric luminosity, Eddington ratio, and black hole mass. These results are consistent with a scenario in which galaxies are concurrently fueling a SMBH and building their stellar bulge from a centrally-concentrated gas reservoir. Alternatively, quasar hosts may be experiencing a compaction process in which stars from the disk and inflowing gas are responsible for growing the bulge. In addition, we confirm that the host galaxies of type-1 quasars have a bias of being closer towards face-on, suggesting that galactic-scale dust can contribute to obscuring the broad-line region.
We present a catalogue of low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in the Coma cluster obtained from deep Subaru/Suprime-Cam V and R-band imaging data within a region of $sim$4 deg$^2$. We increase the number of LSB galaxies presented in Yagi et al. (20 16) by a factor of $sim$3 and report the discovery of 29 new ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). We compile the largest sample of ultra-diffuse galaxies with colours and structural parameters in the Coma cluster. While most UDGs lie along the red-sequence relation of the colour-magnitude diagram, $sim$5per cent are outside (bluer or redder) the red-sequence region of Coma cluster galaxies. Our analyses show that there is no special distinction in the basic photometric parameters between UDGs and other LSB galaxies. We investigate the clustercentric colour distribution and find a remarkable transition at a projected radius of $sim$0.6 Mpc. Within this cluster core region, LSB galaxies are, on average, redder than co-spatial higher surface brightness galaxies, highlighting how vulnerable LSB galaxies are to the physical processes at play in the dense central region of the cluster. The position of the transition radius agrees with expectations from recent cosmological simulation of massive galaxy clusters within which ancient infalls are predicted to dominate the LSB galaxy population.
