Mitigating Internal Instrument Coupling II: A Method Demonstration with the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array
Nicholas S. Kern, Aaron R. Parsons, Joshua S. Dillon +63
We present a study of internal reflection and cross coupling systematics in Phase I of the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA). In a companion paper, we outlined the mathem…
Absolute Calibration Strategies for the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array and Their Impact on the 21 cm Power Spectrum
Nicholas S. Kern, Joshua S. Dillon, Aaron R. Parsons +69
We discuss absolute calibration strategies for Phase I of the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA), which aims to measure the cosmological 21 cm signal from the Epoch of Rei…
Understanding the HERA Phase I receiver system with simulations and its impact on the detectability of the EoR delay power spectrum
Nicolas Fagnoni, Eloy de Lera Acedo, David R. DeBoer +67
The detection of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) delay power spectrum using a "foreground avoidance method" highly depends on the instrument chromaticity. The systematic effects in…
A Roadmap for Astrophysics and Cosmology with High-Redshift 21 cm Intensity Mapping
The Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array, Collaboration, James E. Aguirre +29
In this white paper, we lay out a US roadmap for high-redshift 21 cm cosmology (30 < z < 6) in the 2020s. Beginning with the currently-funded HERA and MWA Phase II projects and adv…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Insights Into the Epoch of Reionization with the Highly-Redshifted 21-cm Line
Steven Furlanetto, Chris L. Carilli, Jordan Mirocha +47
The epoch of reionization, when photons from early galaxies ionized the intergalactic medium about a billion years after the Big Bang, is the last major phase transition in the Uni…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Synergies Between Galaxy Surveys and Reionization Measurements
Steven Furlanetto, Adam Beardsley, Chris L. Carilli +47
The early phases of galaxy formation constitute one of the most exciting frontiers in astrophysics. It is during this era that the first luminous sources reionize the intergalactic…
Cosmology with the Highly Redshifted 21cm Line
Adrian Liu, James Aguirre, Yacine Ali-Haimoud +47
In addition to being a probe of Cosmic Dawn and Epoch of Reionization astrophysics, the 21cm line at is also a powerful way to constrain cosmology. Its power derives from sev…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: First Stars and Black Holes at Cosmic Dawn with Redshifted 21-cm Observations
Jordan Mirocha, Daniel Jacobs, Josh Dillon +39
The "cosmic dawn" refers to the period of the Universe's history when stars and black holes first formed and began heating and ionizing hydrogen in the intergalactic medium (IGM).…
Astro 2020 Science White Paper: Fundamental Cosmology in the Dark Ages with 21-cm Line Fluctuations
Steven Furlanetto, Judd D. Bowman, Jordan Mirocha +43
The Dark Ages are the period between the last scattering of the cosmic microwave background and the appearance of the first luminous sources, spanning approximately 1100 < z < 30.…
Optimizing Sparse RFI Prediction using Deep Learning
Joshua Kerrigan, Paul La Plante, Saul Kohn +61
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) is an ever-present limiting factor among radio telescopes even in the most remote observing locations. When looking to retain the maximum amount…
The Role of Machine Learning in the Next Decade of Cosmology
Michelle Ntampaka, Camille Avestruz, Steven Boada +27
In recent years, machine learning (ML) methods have remarkably improved how cosmologists can interpret data. The next decade will bring new opportunities for data-driven cosmologic…
