N2 - We present deep Hubble Space Telescope near-IR and Spitzer mid-IR
observations of a large sample of spectroscopically confirmed galaxies
at z >= 6. The sample consists of 51 Lyα emitters (LAEs) at z
~= 5.7, 6.5, and 7.0, and 16 Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) at 5.9 = 6.
Based in part on observations made with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space
Telescope, obtained from the data archive at the Space Telescope Science
Institute, which is operated by the Association of Universities for
Research in Astronomy, Inc. under NASA contract NAS 5-26555. Based in
part on observations made with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which is
operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of
Technology under a contract with NASA. Based in part on data collected
at Subaru Telescope and obtained from SMOKA, which is operated by the
Astronomy Data Center, National Astronomical Observatory of Japan.
