Description

Importance of the near-infrared background light is raised on studying the formation and evolution of galaxies at the early universe. Our recent rocket experiment has revealed the existence of the extended isotropic radiation, a part of which is possibly attributed to extragalactic origin. In order to confirm this and to make detailed observation, an advanced space experiment is proposed. (author)
