Galactic Archaeology with Subaru: Prospects for Wide-Field Surveys Masashi Chiba (Tohoku University, Sendai) with HSC and PFS science working groups
2
Outline Background Wide-field photometric survey with Hyper Suprime Cam (HSC) Wide-field, fiber-fed multi-object spectroscopic survey with Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS)
3
What do we want to know? Formation of the Galaxy in CDM theory Bright parts are centrally concentrated Dark halo in the GalaxyAssembly of CDM By Moore Resolved stars provide fossil records of galaxy formation process By Moore
4
Then, what data do we need? Photometry : mag., color ( → color-mag. diagram) Spectroscopy : metallicity, V rad (kinematics) abundance pattern ( → SFH & chemical evol.) Astrometry : proper motion, distance (→ 6d phase space) ⇒ galaxy formation and evolution Subaru/PFS Subaru/HSC Gaia

Subaru Strategic Program (SSP) with HSC (to be submitted) (dedicated to a newly commissioned instrument: max: 60 nights/year x 5 years) 1. Wide-field survey over ~ 1,500 deg 2 cosmology: primary science driver weak lensing, strong lensing, galaxy clusters other science incl. galactic archaeology 2. Deep and ultra-deep survey galaxy and QSO/AGN evolution high-z galaxies, re-ionization, z~7 QSOs

Many fibersMerging history GA science goals with PFS
23
1. Formation of Galactic structures Merging history of the Milky Way (MW)? Formation of old MW components (thick disk, halo)? Star-formation history of dwarf satellites? Formation of M31: is it different from the MW? 2.The nature of galactic dark matter How is dark matter distributed in the MW? Dark matter of dwarf satellites: is CDM correct? GA science goals with PFS All of these information are recorded in stars
24
1.Space and velocity distributions of ancient stars Past collapse and merging events Tracer of dark matter profiles 2.Chemical abundance of ancient stars Star formation and chemical evolution Phase space Debris of building blocks A building block Helmi & de Zeeuw 2000 Freeman & Bland-Hawthorn 2002 Extracting past merging history: how? Astrometry with Gaia (precise distances and proper motions) + V rad & [Fe/H] distrib. with PFS will resolve each of blocks and its chemical evolution

Accretion time of a satellite can be deduced from phase-space distribution of stars (McMillan & Binney 2008, Gomez+ 2010) 7.9 Gyr 8.9 Gyr 7.6 Gyr r-r- LzLz r-r- kk P(k ) Orbital freq.
