Circuit Modeling for In Situ 21 cm Radiometer Calibration

Gary Vincent Charles Allen, Saurabh Pegwal, Dirk de Villiers +42

Recent experiments in cosmology, particularly those aimed at detecting the faint, redshifted, global 21 cm hydrogen line (depth < ~200 mK, z > 7.5), have imposed stringent new requ…
