We present a novel analysis of observational systematics through the emission-line stacking of the MeerKLASS L-band deep-field intensity maps, following the detection in arXiv:2407…
Hydrogen intensity mapping with MeerKAT: Preserving cosmological signal by optimising contaminant separation
Isabella P. Carucci, José L. Bernal, Steven Cunnington +9
Removing contaminants is a delicate, yet crucial step in neutral hydrogen (HI) intensity mapping and often considered the technique's greatest challenge. Here, we address this chal…
MeerKLASS L-band deep-field intensity maps: entering the HI dominated regime
MeerKLASS Collaboration, Matilde Barberi-Squarotti, José L. Bernal +18
We present results from MeerKAT single-dish HI intensity maps, the final observations to be performed in L-band in the MeerKAT Large Area Synoptic Survey (MeerKLASS) campaign. The…
