銀河・銀河団の形成・進化に関する現状の理解と残された諸問題
Current understandings and remaining issues on the formation and evolution of galaxies and clusters of galaxies
まず前半は、銀河の形成・進化を理解する上で必須となる、基礎的な知識（階層的な銀河形成論、現象論的な進化モデル、観測から得られる諸物理量など）をレビューする。その上で、後半は、遠方銀河・銀河団に関する理論モデルや主に可視光から電波の波長帯の観測の進展によって、現在その形成と進化についてどのように理解が進んでいるか、また残された謎は何か、その解決のための将来の展望、などについて述べる。
In the first first, I will review the basic concepts and models/tools (hierarchical galaxy formation model, phenomenological models, derivation of physical quantities from observed data, etc) which are required to understand the formation and evolution of galaxies and clusters of galaxies. In the latter half, I will present the advancement in theoretical models and recent optical-NIR-submm-radio observations with modern facilities, and discuss current understandings, remaining issues, and future prospects on the formation and evolution of galaxies and clusters of galaxies.
To learn the basic concepts and background knowledge of the formation and evolution of galaxies and clusters of galaxies. To learn how the galaxies and clusters are formed and evolved over the cosmic times and across various environments based on the recent observations of distant Universe. To be motivated to conduct researches on galaxies and clusters.

Contents of the lectures are the following:
1. Hierarchical formation model of galaxies and clusters of galaxies
2. Phenomenological models of galaxies (chemical and spectral evolution)
3. Physical quantities of galaxies and clusters obtained from observations
4. Observations of distant galaxies and clusters in optical-IR-submm-radio regime
5. Current understandings, remaining issues and future prospects
