Scientific paper

We selected the target stars for the Subaru Strategic Exploration of Exoplanets and Disks (SEEDS) with the High-contrast Coronagraphic Imager for Adaptive Optics (HiCIAO/AO188) observations from the members of open clusters and moving groups. For this selection, we defined the criteria for open clusters and moving groups. Using those selection criteria, we made a target list for open clusters and moving groups. The number of target stars selected is 50 from each category. As a result, the target stars for the open cluster category were selected only from the Pleiades, and those for the moving groups were from six different moving groups. We calculated the expected number of exoplanet detections by HiCIAO and AO188 (to be used on Subaru) by assuming the exoplanet formation probability. The expected number of the direct exoplanet detection is 28 in this category.
