Signatures of Cosmic Ray Heating in 21-cm Observables

T. Gessey-Jones, A. Fialkov, E. de Lera Acedo +2

Cosmic rays generated by supernovae carry away a significant portion of the lifetime energy emission of their parent star, making them a plausible mechanism for heating the early u…

Joint analysis constraints on the physics of the first galaxies with low frequency radio astronomy data

Harry T. J. Bevins, Stefan Heimersheim, Irene Abril-Cabezas +5

The first billion years of cosmic history remains largely unobserved. We demonstrate, using a novel machine learning technique, how combining upper limits on the spatial fluctuatio…

Sky-averaged 21-cm signal extraction using multiple antennas with an SVD framework: the REACH case

Anchal Saxena, P. Daniel Meerburg, Eloy de Lera Acedo +2

In a sky-averaged 21-cm signal experiment, the uncertainty on the extracted signal depends mainly on the covariance between the foreground and 21-cm signal models. In this paper, w…

Astrophysical Constraints from the SARAS3 non-detection of the Cosmic Dawn Sky-Averaged 21-cm Signal

H. T. J. Bevins, A. Fialkov, E. de Lera Acedo +4

Observations of the redshifted 21-cm line of atomic hydrogen have resulted in several upper limits on the 21-cm power spectrum and a tentative detection of the sky-averaged signal…

A General Bayesian Framework to Account for Foreground Map Errors in Global 21-cm Experiments

Michael Pagano, Peter Sims, Adrian Liu +3

Measurement of the global 21-cm signal during Cosmic Dawn (CD) and the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) is made difficult by bright foreground emission which is 2-5 orders of magnitude…

The REACH radiometer for detecting the 21-cm hydrogen signal from redshift 7.5 to 28

E. de Lera Acedo, D. I. L. de Villiers, N. Razavi-Ghods +31

Observations of the 21-cm line from primordial hydrogen promise to be one of the best tools to study the early epochs of the Universe: the Dark Ages, the Cosmic Dawn, and the subse…

Cosmological constraints on decaying axion-like particles: a global analysis

Csaba Balázs, Sanjay Bloor, Tomás E. Gonzalo +8

Axion-like particles (ALPs) decaying into photons are known to affect a wide range of astrophysical and cosmological observables. In this study we focus on ALPs with masses in the…

Cosmology Intertwined: A Review of the Particle Physics, Astrophysics, and Cosmology Associated with the Cosmological Tensions and Anomalies

Elcio Abdalla, Guillermo Franco Abellán, Amin Aboubrahim +200

In this paper we will list a few important goals that need to be addressed in the next decade, also taking into account the current discordances between the different cosmological…

Impact of the Primordial Stellar Initial Mass Function on the 21-cm Signal

T. Gessey-Jones, N. S. Sartorio, A. Fialkov +6

Properties of the first generation of stars (Pop III), such as their initial mass function (IMF), are poorly constrained by observations and have yet to converge between simulation…

A Comprehensive Bayesian re-analysis of the SARAS2 data from the Epoch of Reionization

H. T. J. Bevins, E. de Lera Acedo, A. Fialkov +4

We present a Bayesian re-analysis of the sky-averaged 21-cm experimental data from SARAS2 using nested sampling implemented with polychord, spectrally smooth foreground modelling i…

GLOBALEMU: A novel and robust approach for emulating the sky-averaged 21-cm signal from the cosmic dawn and epoch of reionisation

H. T. J. Bevins, W. J. Handley, A. Fialkov +2

Emulation of the Global (sky-averaged) 21-cm signal with neural networks has been shown to be an essential tool for physical signal modelling. In this paper we present globalemu, a…

Constraining Quantum Initial Conditions before Inflation

T. Gessey-Jones, W. J. Handley

We theoretically and observationally investigate different choices of initial conditions for the primordial mode function that are imposed during an epoch preceding inflation. By d…

Improved cosmological fits with quantized primordial power spectra

D. J. Bartlett, W. J. Handley, A. N. Lasenby

We observationally examine cosmological models based on primordial power spectra with quantized wavevectors. Introducing a linearly quantized power spectrum with $k_0=3.225\times10…

When tension is just a fluctuation: How noisy data affect model comparison

B. Joachimi, F. Köhlinger, W. Handley +1

Summary statistics of the likelihood, such as the Bayesian evidence, offer a principled way of comparing models and assessing tension between, or within, the results of physical ex…
