Abstract

AbstractWe present results from our on-going study of the distribution and evolution of high-z galaxies. We exploited the large area coverage (~1.3 deg2) of the Subaru / XMM-Newton Deep Survey field (SXDF) to search for Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) and Lyα Emitters (LAEs) at 3 <z< 7. We have found filamentary large scale structures, which are made of LAEs, with ~10 to 40 Mpc (in commoving units) scale voids as early as at z = 5.7. Galaxies at this redshift show clustering of ~1 Mpc in diameter (in physical unit). The inferred star formation rate density of these clustering is ~130 times the mean of the whole area, indicates burst of star formation activities. Combined with the UKIDSS/UDS photometry, the optical+near-IR SED fitting provides the estimate of masses for some of these high-z galaxies. Preliminary results indicate a number of galaxies at z >5 have already grown up to ~1011 solar mass.
