First Results from HERA Phase II
The HERA Collaboration, Zuhra Abdurashidova, Tyrone Adams +83
We report the first upper limits on the power spectrum of 21-cm fluctuations during the Epoch of Reionization and Cosmic Dawn from Phase II of the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Ar…
Impacts and Statistical Mitigation of Missing Data on the 21cm Power Spectrum: A Case Study with the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array
Kai-Feng Chen, Michael J. Wilensky, Adrian Liu +66
The precise characterization and mitigation of systematic effects is one of the biggest roadblocks impeding the detection of the fluctuations of cosmological 21cm signals. Missing…
Mitigating calibration errors from mutual coupling with time-domain filtering of 21 cm cosmological radio observations
N. Charles, N. S. Kern, R. Pascua +80
The 21 cm transition from neutral Hydrogen promises to be the best observational probe of the Epoch of Reionisation (EoR). This has led to the construction of low-frequency radio i…
Investigating Mutual Coupling in the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array and Mitigating its Effects on the 21-cm Power Spectrum
E. Rath, R. Pascua, A. T. Josaitis +78
Interferometric experiments designed to detect the highly redshifted 21-cm signal from neutral hydrogen are producing increasingly stringent constraints on the 21-cm power spectrum…
A demonstration of the effect of fringe-rate filtering in the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array delay power spectrum pipeline
Hugh Garsden, Philip Bull, Mike Wilensky +94
Radio interferometers targeting the 21cm brightness temperature fluctuations at high redshift are subject to systematic effects that operate over a range of different timescales. T…
Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA) Phase II Deployment and Commissioning
Lindsay M. Berkhout, Daniel C. Jacobs, Zuhra Abdurashidova +93
This paper presents the design and deployment of the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA) phase II system. HERA is designed as a staged experiment targeting 21 cm emission m…
matvis: A matrix-based visibility simulator for fast forward modelling of many-element 21 cm arrays
Piyanat Kittiwisit, Steven G. Murray, Hugh Garsden +95
Detection of the faint 21 cm line emission from the Cosmic Dawn and Epoch of Reionisation will require not only exquisite control over instrumental calibration and systematics to a…
Receiver design for the REACH global 21-cm signal experiment
Ian L. V. Roque, Nima Razavi-Ghods, Steven H. Carey +35
We detail the the REACH radiometric system designed to enable measurements of the 21-cm neutral hydrogen line. Included is the radiometer architecture and end-to-end system simulat…
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…
Array Element Coupling in Radio Interferometry I: A Semi-Analytic Approach
Alec T. Josaitis, Aaron Ewall-Wice, Nicolas Fagnoni +1
We derive a general formalism for interferometric visibilities, which considers first-order antenna-antenna coupling and assumes steady-state, incident radiation. We simulate such…
Automated Detection of Antenna Malfunctions in Large-N Interferometers: A Case Study with the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array
Dara Storer, Joshua S. Dillon, Daniel C. Jacobs +75
We present a framework for identifying and flagging malfunctioning antennas in large radio interferometers. We outline two distinct categories of metrics designed to detect outlier…
Radio antenna design for sky-averaged 21 cm cosmology experiments: the REACH case
J. Cumner, E. De Lera Acedo, D. I. L. de Villiers +35
Following the reported detection of an absorption profile associated with the 21~cm sky-averaged signal from the Cosmic Dawn by the EDGES experiment in 2018, a number of experiment…
Foreground modelling via Gaussian process regression: an application to HERA data
Abhik Ghosh, Florent Mertens, Gianni Bernardi +70
The key challenge in the observation of the redshifted 21-cm signal from cosmic reionization is its separation from the much brighter foreground emission. Such separation relies on…
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…
