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…

Search for the Epoch of Reionisation with HERA: Upper Limits on the Closure Phase Delay Power Spectrum

Pascal M. Keller, Bojan Nikolic, Nithyanandan Thyagarajan +80

Radio interferometers aiming to measure the power spectrum of the redshifted 21 cm line during the Epoch of Reionisation (EoR) need to achieve an unprecedented dynamic range to sep…

On the use of temporal filtering for mitigating galactic synchrotron calibration bias in 21 cm reionization observations

Ntsikelelo Charles, Nicholas Kern, Gianni Bernardi +4

Precision antenna calibration is required for mitigating the impact of foreground contamination in 21 cm cosmological radio surveys. One widely studied source of error is the effec…
