The FAST HI 21-cm Absorption Blind Survey. III. OH Absorption Search in the 21-cm Absorber Sample and Continued HI Absorption Search
Wenkai Hu, Yougang Wang, Jeremy Darling +11
We present the first blind search for OH 18-cm absorption with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST), conducted alongside the HI 21-cm absorption search. Our p…
Synthesis imaging with a lunar orbit array: III. Augmented lagrangian Multiplier Imaging using Gradient descent Optimization (AMIGO)
Meng Zhou, Furen Deng, Yidong Xu +1
The paper introduces AMIGO, an imaging algorithm that combines mini‑batch gradient descent with an augmented Lagrangian multiplier framework to efficiently reconstruct all‑sky radi…
High-Redshift Signatures from the Cosmic Dawn and the Epoch of Reionization
Rennan Barkana, Oliver Basquette, Ankita Bera +22
In this chapter, we provide a comprehensive overview of the astrophysical and cosmological processes that shape the 21-cm signal during Cosmic Dawn and the Epoch of Reionization. W…
Overview of 21cm Experiments at high redshift with SKAO
CD Science Working Group, Gianni Bernardi, Daniela Breitman +81
We provide an overview of the eight SKAO Science Book chapters that motivate the Epoch of Reionisation and Cosmic Dawn experiments with SKA-Low. We describe the individual SKA-Low…
Exploring the Cosmic Dawn through the 21 cm Forest and High-redshift Radio Sources with the SKA
Junsong Cang, Benedetta Ciardi, Barun Maity +12
The 21~cm forest, seen as absorption features in the spectra of distant radio sources, is produced by intervening neutral hydrogen and offers a direct probe of the neutral intergal…
Wedge-avoidance Fisher Forecasts for Primordial Non-Gaussianity from Dark-Ages 21-cm Power Spectrum and Bispectrum
Chen Zhang, Furen Deng, Yidong Xu +3
The Dark Ages offer a uniquely clean window on primordial physics, making the redshifted 21-cm signal a promising probe of primordial non-Gaussianity (PNG). Forecasts for interfero…
