Overview of North Ecliptic Pole Deep multi-wavelength Survey (NEP-Deep)

Astrophysics of Galaxies 2017-10-31 v1

Abstract

The recent updates of the North Ecliptic Pole deep (0.5~deg2^2, NEP-Deep) multi-wavelength survey covering from X-ray to radio-wave is presented. The NEP-Deep provides us with several thousands of 15~μ\mum or 18~μ\mum selected sample of galaxies, which is the largest sample ever made at this wavelengths. A continuous filter coverage in the mid-infrared wavelength (7, 9, 11, 15, 18, and 24~μ\mum) is unique and vital to diagnose the contributions from starbursts and AGNs in the galaxies out to zz=2.The new goal of the project is to resolve the nature of the cosmic star formation history at the violent epoch (e.g. zz=1--2), and to find a clue to understand its decline from zz=1 to present universe by utilizing the unique power of the multi-wavelength survey. The progress in this context is briefly mentioned.
