We report fourteen and twenty-eight protocluster candidates at z = 5.7 and 6.6 over 14 and 19 deg2 areas, respectively, selected from 2,230 Lyα emitters (LAEs) photometrically identified with Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) deep images. Six out of the 42 protocluster candidates include at least 1 spectroscopically confirmed LAEs at redshifts up to z = 6.574. By the comparisons with the cosmological Lyα radiative transfer (RT) model reproducing LAEs with the reionization effects, we find that more than a half of these protocluster candidates might be progenitors of the present-day clusters with a mass of ≳ 1014M⊙. We also investigate the correlation between LAE overdensity and Lya rest-frame equivalent width (EW), because the cosmological Lyα RT model suggests that a slope of EW-overdensity relation is steepened towards the epoch of cosmic reionization (EoR), due to the existence of the ionized bubbles around galaxy overdensities easing the escape of Lyα emission from the partly neutral intergalactic medium. The available HSC data suggest that the slope of the EW-overdensity correlation does not evolve from the post-reionization epoch z = 5.7 to the EoR z = 6.6 beyond the moderately large statistical errors.

The effects of solute and vacancy segregation on APB migration in Ti3Al, and their dependence on composition, have been investigated by using a phase-field simulation in which vacancy distribution is taken into account. Al-atoms are depleted and vacancies segregate at APB in stoichiometric Ti3Al (Ti-25Al), whereas Al-atoms segregate and vacancies are depleted in Alrich one (Ti-28Al). The simulation indicates that APB in Ti3Al migrates much faster in Ti-25Al than in Ti-28Al with the effect of vacancy segregation whereas it migrates slightly faster in Ti-28Al than in Ti-25Al in the absence of the effect of vacancy segregation.
