Why care about stellar halos? • Laboratory to test hierarchical galaxy formation • Tidal debris of merging galaxies survive for several Gyrs in the halo since the dynamical timescale is long there • Orbit of stream structure strong constraint for the gravitational potential of the galaxy • How frequent do merging events occur?

Features in Color-Magnitude Diagram • AGB bump (AGBb): Clustered feature of AGB stars at the beginning of He shell-burning evolution • Red Clump: Clustered feature of red HB (He core-burning) stars being metal-rich / young age age indicator of stellar population (once metallicity is determined) • Suprime-Cam data enable us to investigate the properties of stellar population Tanaka+2007b AGBb RGBb HB AGB bump Red clump Mean Age ~ 9.6 Gyr Alves & Sarajedini 1999
HSC M31 Halo Ultimate Imaging Survey • HSC can image as deep as below HB/RC in 1 hour under moderate seeing condition (~0”.7) • 81 HSC (2deg case) pointings are required to cover 254 sqrdeg (x2 the field size of Ibata et al. 2007 survey) • Total: 20 nights required • 2 color bands (V, I)
DDO51 filter • With DDO51 filter, M31 RGB stars are easily discriminated from Galactic dwarf stars. giants giants dwarfs dwarfs
Toward Nearby Groups • Similar investigation can be applied for galaxies in nearby groups. HSC is suitable for such observations; • 1.5deg corresponds to 130kpc @ 5Mpc • TRBG ~ 24 mag, HB ~ 28 mag @ 5Mpc • Structure of nearby galaxies (M31 to nearby groups) • More sample galaxies • Dependence on morphology • Dependence on environment N5128 Sculpter 5Mpc LG Canes1 M81 Maffei

SDSS Ultra Faint Dwarf Galaxies • SDSS: discoveries of Milky Way companion dwarf “galaxies” comparable or even fainter than globular clusters! • “they might be just the first of a vast population of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies surrounding the Milky Way system that is yet to be discovered” (van den Bergh) Belokurov+ 2007 Globular Clusters
Ultra Faint Dwarf Galaxies • These galaxies are metal poor and dark matter dominated • HSC : • Search for ultra faint dwarf galaxies which are companions to M31 • Relation with missing satellite problem Simon & Geha 2007
