A constellation in the equatorial region of the Northern Hemisphere near Aries and Pegasus. Also called Fishes. 2. a. The 12th sign of the zodiac in astrology. Also called Fishes. b. pl.Pisces One who is born under this sign. 3. A deep, wide-field survey of galaxy clusters at 0.4<z<1.3. 1 – PISCES project

  4. PISCES project (in A&A abstract format) Aims: Methods: Results: Conclusions: Our goal is to quantify galaxy properties as functions of environment, mass, and time and understand how and when the environmental dependence of galaxy properties is established. We carry out a systematic, deep (~M*+4), wide-field (30’x30’), optical-nearIR imaging + spectroscopic survey of distant clusters. Some of our recent results are presented in this talk. Our survey is not finished yet, so…..we will see. For details, see Kodama+ 2005 PASJ, 57, 309

  30. Clusters at z=0 are filled with red and dead galaxies. Clusters at High/Low Redshifts Proto-clusters at z=5.7 can be traced by young, forming galaxies (Ouchi+ '05).

  31. Galaxy clusters change their nature from the cradle to the grave... Key question : “How and when do they change?”

  32. PKS1138 cluster at z=2.16 (Kurk+ '04): Red and blue gals co-exit? Key epoch: redshift around 2 Probing z~2 clusters would give us a hint for the origin of the environmental dependence of galaxy properties. RDCSJ1252 cluster at z=1.24 (Tanaka+ '07): Red gals have already become the dominant population.

  34. Summary • Galaxies follow the 'environment-dependent down-sizing' evolution. • Galaxy-galaxy interactions may be the driving process of this evolution. • Probing clusters at z~2 with next generation surveys would be interesting. Environment Mass
