We report the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) discovery of two Ly$\alpha$ blobs (LABs), dubbed z70-1 and z49-1 at $z=6.965$ and $z=4.888$ respectively, that are Ly$\alpha$ emitters with a bright ($\log L_{\rm Ly\alpha}/{\rm [erg\…

In this paper, we report our multiwavelength observations of subarcsecond blobs in coronal jets. In AR 12149, a C5.5 circular-ribbon flare occurred on 2014 August 24. Two jets (jet1 and jet2) were related to the flare. Jet1 appeared first.…
