Cosmic Galaxy-IGM HI Relation at Probed in the COSMOS/UltraVISTA deg Field
We present spatial correlations of galaxies and IGM HI in the
COSMOS/UltraVISTA 1.62 deg field. Our data consist of 13,415 photo-
galaxies at with and the Ly forest absorptions in
the background quasar spectra selected from SDSS data with no signature of
damped Ly system contamination. We estimate a galaxy overdensity
in an impact parameter of 2.5 pMpc, and calculate the Ly
forest fluctuations whose negative values
correspond to the strong Ly forest absorptions. We identify weak
evidence of an anti-correlation between and with a Spearman's rank correlation coefficient of suggesting
that the galaxy overdensities and the Ly forest absorptions positively
correlate in space at the confidence level. This positive
correlation indicates that high- galaxies exist around an excess of HI gas
in the Ly forest. We find four cosmic volumes, dubbed
-, that have extremely large (small) values of () and (), three
out of which, -, significantly depart from the correlation,
and weaken the correlation signal. We perform cosmological hydrodynamical
simulations, and compare with our observational results. Our simulations
reproduce the correlation, agreeing with the observational results. Moreover,
our simulations have model counterparts of -, and suggest
that the observations pinpoint, by chance, a galaxy overdensity like a
proto-cluster, gas filaments lying on the sightline, a large void, and
orthogonal low-density filaments. Our simulations indicate that the significant
departures of - are produced by the filamentary large-scale
structures and the observation sightline effects.Comment: 14 pages, 12 figures. Accepted for publication in Ap
Tendency of Adhesive Particles on the Liquid Wall Layer in the Turbulent Flow Channel
The experimental investigation and simulation model approach were carried out to investigate the behavior of the fine particles to adÂhere on the layer of liquid on the wall in gas-solid two-phase flow. Polymethyl methacrylate having two different mean-diameters of 20 mm and of 50mm was used for measurement. By using continuous feeding sysÂtem, the fine particles were entrained and mixed with the air in the duct. Experiment for solid particle gas with two-phase flow in room temperature was carried out to make a clear turbulent effect for particle adhering behavior to wall side having a high-viscosity liquid layer. These phenomena were also investigated by the simulation model which represented the experimental condition for two-phase flow and using k-Δ two equation models for turbulent flow. The experimental result showed that adhered particle quantity depends on particle feeding rate. The result of simulation model also showed the same tendency. The relation of the various particles feeding rate and capture rate were also described
Similarities and uniqueness of Ly emitters among star-forming galaxies at z=2.5
We conducted a deep narrow-band imaging survey with the Subaru Prime Focus
Camera on the Subaru Telescope and constructed a sample of Ly emitters
(LAEs) at z=2.53 in the UDS-CANDELS field where a sample of H emitters
(HAEs) at the same redshift is already obtained from our previous narrow-band
observation at NIR. The deep narrow-band and multi broadband data allow us to
find LAEs of stellar masses and star-formation rates (SFRs) down to
M and 0.2 M/yr, respectively. We show
that the LAEs are located along the same mass-SFR sequence traced by normal
star-forming galaxies such as HAEs, but towards a significantly lower mass
regime. Likewise, LAEs seem to share the same mass--size relation with typical
star-forming galaxies, except for the massive LAEs, which tend to show
significantly compact sizes. We identify a vigorous mass growth in the central
part of LAEs: the stellar mass density in the central region of LAEs increases
as their total galaxy mass grows. On the other hand, we see no Ly line
in emission for most of the HAEs. Rather, we find that the Ly feature
is either absent or in absorption (Ly absorbers; LAAs), and its
absorption strength may increase with reddening of the UV continuum slope. We
demonstrate that a deep Ly narrow-band imaging like this study is able
to search for not only LAEs but also LAAs in a certain redshift slice. This
work suggests that LAEs trace normal star-forming galaxies in the low-mass
regime, while they remain as a unique population because the majority of HAEs
are not LAEs.Comment: 20 pages, 18 figures, 3 tables, accepted for publication in MNRA
Spectroscopy of eta'-nucleus bound states at GSI-SIS
The eta' meson mass may be reduced due to partial restoration of chiral
symmetry. If this is the case, an eta'-nucleus system may form a nuclear bound
state. We plan to carry out a missing-mass spectroscopy with the 12C(p,d)
reaction at GSI-SIS. Peak structures corresponding to such a bound state may be
observed even in an inclusive measurement, if the decay width is narrow enough.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, to appear in the proceedings of MESON2012 (12th
