My research encompasses a
galaxy evolution and observational cosmology. My selected
past achievements include:
● Detected the
integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect (expansion of the
Universe) by
cross-correlating WISE
and WMAP at
3.1σ significance (most significant
from a single galaxy
map).
(Goto
et al. 2011d)
● Discovered one of
the highest redshift QSOs at z∼6
to investigate the reionization
process of the early
Universe
(Goto 2006).
● Performed the
Gunn-Peterson test with a QSO at z=6.4 and found
a 200 Mpc
long dark gap
(Goto et
al 2011c).
● Discovered
the most
distant Lyα blob around a QSO and its host galaxy at
z=6.4
(Goto et al.2009,2011e)
●
Revealed dust-hidden
cosmic star formation history at 0<z<2.2
more
reliably than Spitzer
by taking advantage of the AKARI space telescope's
continuous mid-IR
filters
(Goto et al. 2010a,b,2011a,b).
● Found galaxy
clusters to z 1.7 using a new technique using the
AKARI's 4μm
∼
filter
(Goto et al. 2008c).
● A creation of a
catalog of
∼4,000
galaxy clusters (which was one of the
largest)
(Goto et al. 2002a)
● Revealed the
environmental dependence of morphological and spectral
evolution of galaxies
with unprecedented statistical accuracy
(Goto et al.
2002b,2003a,b,c,e)
● Solved the
20-year-old mystery on the physical origin of post-starburst(E+A)
galaxies
(Goto et al.
2003d,2004,2005a)
● Found evidence of
downsizing galaxy evolution using a HST/ACS cluster
survey at z 1
∼
(Goto et
al. 2005b)
