Improved upper limits on the 21-cm signal power spectrum at and from an optimal field observed with NenuFAR

S. Munshi, F. G. Mertens, J. K. Chege +19

We report the deepest upper limits to date on the power spectrum of the 21-cm signal during the Cosmic Dawn (redshifts: ), using four nights of observations with NenuFAR. The…

Generative Models of 21cm EoR Lightcones with 3D Scattering Transforms

Ian Hothi, Erwan Allys, Benoit Semelin +1

The 21cm signal from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) is observed as a three-dimensional data set known as a lightcone, consisting of a redshift (frequency) axis and two spatial sky…

Constraints on the state of the IGM at using redshifted 21-cm observations with LOFAR

R. Ghara, S. Zaroubi, B. Ciardi +21

The power spectra of the redshifted 21-cm signal from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) contain information about the ionization and thermal states of the intergalactic medium (IGM),…

First upper limits on the 21-cm signal power spectrum of neutral hydrogen at from the LOFAR 3C196 field

E. Ceccotti, A. R. Offringa, F. G. Mertens +16

The redshifted 21-cm signal of neutral hydrogen from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) can potentially be detected using low-frequency radio instruments such as the Low-Frequency Arr…
