An Overview of CHIME, the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment

The CHIME Collaboration, Mandana Amiri, Kevin Bandura +40

The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) is a drift scan radio telescope operating across the 400-800 MHz band. CHIME is located at the Dominion Radio Astrophysic…

Comprehensive Bayesian analysis of FRB-like bursts from SGR 1935+2154 observed by CHIME/FRB

Utkarsh Giri, Bridget C. Andersen, Pragya Chawla +24

The bright millisecond-duration radio burst from the Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154 in 2020 April was a landmark event, demonstrating that at least some fast radio burst (FRB) sou…

Detection of the Cosmological 21 cm Signal in Auto-correlation at z ~ 1 with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment

CHIME Collaboration, Mandana Amiri, Kevin Bandura +36

We present the first detection of the cosmological 21 cm intensity mapping signal in auto-correlation at z ~ 1 with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME). Usin…

The Squeezed Bispectrum from CHIME HI Emission and Planck CMB Lensing: Current Sensitivity and Forecasts

CHIME Collaboration, Arnab Chakraborty, Matt Dobbs +18

Line intensity mapping using atomic hydrogen (HI) has the potential to efficiently map large volumes of the universe if the signal can be successfully separated from overwhelmingly…

Detection of Cosmological 21 cm Emission with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment

CHIME Collaboration, Mandana Amiri, Kevin Bandura +30

We present a detection of 21-cm emission from large-scale structure (LSS) between redshift 0.78 and 1.43 made with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME). Radio…

Beam Maps of the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) Measured with a Drone

Will Tyndall, Alex Reda, J. Richard Shaw +14

We present beam measurements of the CHIME telescope using a radio calibration source deployed on a drone payload. During test flights, the pulsing calibration source and the telesc…

Constraints on the Intergalactic and Local Dispersion Measure of Fast Radio Bursts with the CHIME/FRB far side-lobe events

Hsiu-Hsien Lin, Paul Scholz, Cherry Ng +40

We study the 10 fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected in the far side-lobe region of the CHIME telescope from 2018 August 28 to 2021 August 31. We find that the far side-lobe events ha…

Demonstration of hybrid foreground removal on CHIME data

Haochen Wang, Kiyoshi Masui, Kevin Bandura +15

The main challenge of 21 cm cosmology experiments is astrophysical foregrounds which are difficult to separate from the signal due to telescope systematics. An earlier study has sh…

Do All Fast Radio Bursts Repeat? Constraints from CHIME/FRB Far Side-Lobe FRBs

Hsiu-Hsien Lin, Paul Scholz, Cherry Ng +46

We report ten fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected in the far side-lobe region (i.e., off-meridian) of the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) from 2…
