SILVERRUSH. VII. Subaru/HSC Identifications of Protocluster Candidates at z ∼ 6–7: Implications for Cosmic Reionization

Abstract We report 14 and 26 protocluster candidates at z = 5.7 and 6.6 over 14 and 16 deg 2 areas, respectively, selected from 2230 (259) Ly α emitters (LAEs) photometrically (spectroscopically) identified using Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) deep images (Keck, Subaru, and Magellan spectra, and literature data).
