Tight Constraints on the Excess Radio Background at from LOFAR

R. Mondal, A. Fialkov, C. Fling +13

The ARCADE2 and LWA1 experiments have claimed an excess over the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at low radio frequencies. If the cosmological high-redshift contribution to this…

Improved upper limits on the 21-cm signal power spectrum of neutral hydrogen at from LOFAR

F. G. Mertens, M. Mevius, L. V. E Koopmans +23

A new upper limit on the 21-cm signal power spectrum at a redshift of is presented, based on 141 hours of data obtained with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR). The an…

A standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant from GW170817 without the electromagnetic counterpart

M. Fishbach, R. Gray, I. Magaña Hernandez +316

We perform a statistical standard siren analysis of GW170817. Our analysis does not utilize knowledge of NGC 4993 as the unique host galaxy of the optical counterpart to GW170817.…
