Fundamental limits of radio interferometers: calibration and source parameter estimation

Cathryn M. Trott, Randall B. Wayth, Steven J. Tingay

We use information theory to derive fundamental limits on the capacity to calibrate next-generation radio interferometers, and measure parameters of point sources for instrument ca…

The impact of point source subtraction residuals on 21 cm Epoch of Reionization estimation

Cathryn M. Trott, Randall B. Wayth, Steven J. Tingay

Precise subtraction of foreground sources is crucial for detecting and estimating 21cm HI signals from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). We quantify how imperfect point source subtr…
