Emulating Global 21 cm Cosmology Observations from the Lunar Far Side to Achieve Quick and Reliable Physical Constraints
J. Dorigo Jones, J. O. Burns, D. Rapetti +3
Efforts are underway to measure the global 21 cm signal from neutral hydrogen, which is a powerful probe of the early universe, using NASA radio telescopes on the far side of the M…
Identifying Habitable Exoplanets with Radio Telescopes on the Lunar Farside
N. Mahesh, J. D. Bowman, J. O. Burns +11
The search for habitable conditions beyond Earth is a top priority in astrophysics. The discovery of habitable exoplanets beyond our solar system will require a suite of instrument…
Studying Exoplanets in the Radio from the Moon
Jake D. Turner, Jack O. Burns, David Rapetti +12
Exoplanets with and without a magnetic field are predicted to form, behave, and evolve very differently. Therefore, there is great need to directly constrain these fields to holist…
Results from NASA's First Radio Telescope on the Moon: Terrestrial Technosignatures and the Low-Frequency Galactic Background Observed by ROLSES-1 Onboard the Odysseus Lander
Joshua J. Hibbard, Jack O. Burns, Robert MacDowall +8
Radiowave Observations on the Lunar Surface of the photo-Electron Sheath instrument (ROLSES- 1) onboard the Intuitive Machines' Odysseus lunar lander represents NASA's first radio…
A new goodness-of-fit statistic and its application to 21-cm cosmology
Keith Tauscher, David Rapetti, Jack O. Burns
The reduced chi-squared statistic is a commonly used goodness-of-fit measure, but it cannot easily detect features near the noise level, even when a large amount of data is availab…
