Foreground Characterization and Mitigation in the Observations of the CD/EoR with the SKA
Philip Bull, Jacob Burba, Emilio Ceccotti +20
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA), with its unprecedented sensitivity, frequency coverage, and large collecting area, is poised to revolutionize our understanding of the Cosmic Dawn…
Overview of 21cm Experiments at high redshift with SKAO
CD Science Working Group, Gianni Bernardi, Daniela Breitman +81
We provide an overview of the eight SKAO Science Book chapters that motivate the Epoch of Reionisation and Cosmic Dawn experiments with SKA-Low. We describe the individual SKA-Low…
Observations of the Cosmic Dawn and Epoch of Reionization with the SKAO: Observational Lessons Learned from Precursors and Pathfinder Instruments
Eloy de Lera Acedo, James Aguirre, Dominic Anstey +34
This chapter summarizes the observational lessons learned after two decades of observations of the Cosmic Dawn (CD) and Epoch of Reionization (EoR) with SKAO pathfinders and precur…
Impact of 21-cm foreground mitigation strategies on reionization power spectrum constraints
Sambit K. Giri, Florent Mertens
The 21-cm signal probes the intergalactic medium during the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) but is overwhelmed by astrophysical foregrounds orders of magnitude stronger than the cosmol…
Extracting the Epoch of Reionization Signal with 3D U-Net Neural Networks Using Data-driven Systematic Effect Model
Li-Yang Gao, Léon V. E. Koopmans, Florent G. Mertens +11
Neutral hydrogen (HI) serves as a crucial probe for the Cosmic Dawn and the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). Actual observations of the 21-cm signal often encounter challenges such as…
