The Rise and Fall of Acoustic Oscillations at Cosmic Dawn

Hector Afonso G. Cruz, Gabriele Montefalcone, Julian B. Muñoz +2

Cosmic dawn 21-cm observations will extend standard-ruler cosmology into the first billion years, unlocking epochs inaccessible by the cosmic microwave background and large-scale s…

High-Redshift Signatures from the Cosmic Dawn and the Epoch of Reionization

Rennan Barkana, Oliver Basquette, Ankita Bera +22

In this chapter, we provide a comprehensive overview of the astrophysical and cosmological processes that shape the 21-cm signal during Cosmic Dawn and the Epoch of Reionization. W…

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…

Primordial Magnetic Fields at Cosmic Dawn: 21-cm Forecasts with HERA and SKA

Keduse Worku, Hector Afonso G. Cruz, Marc Kamionkowski

Primordial magnetic fields (PMFs) can enhance the abundance of low-mass halos during Cosmic Dawn by sourcing additional small-scale matter fluctuations. This enhanced small-scale p…

Tracing the Neutrino-Induced Phase Shift in the 21-cm Spectrum

Gabriele Montefalcone, Hector Afonso G. Cruz, Julian B. Munoz +2

We study the phase shift that free-streaming neutrinos imprint on the 21-cm power spectrum during cosmic dawn, computing for the first time its effect on both density- and velocity…

Cross Correlating the Unresolved Gamma-Ray Background with Cosmic Large-Scale Structure from DESI: Implications for Astrophysics and Dark Matter

Bei Zhou, José Luis Bernal, Elena Pinetti +2

The unresolved gamma-ray background (UGRB) is a diffuse gamma-ray emission arising from numerous extragalactic sources below the detection threshold and is an important component o…
