meer21cm: an Analysis Pipeline and Comprehensive Toolkit for HI Intensity Mapping

Zhaoting Chen, Steven Cunnington, Daniel Tassie +23

We present meer21cm, a comprehensive python package for cosmological data analysis of single-dish HI intensity mapping surveys. This package is simple to use, with a modularised co…

Methodological Frontiers in 21-cm Intensity Mapping: the Treatment of Systematics and Foreground Contamination

Marta Spinelli, Matilde Barberi-Squarotti, José Luis Bernal +29

The distribution of neutral hydrogen (HI) in the post-reionization universe traces the cosmic large-scale structure and therefore serves as a powerful cosmological probe. An effici…

Single-dish HI Intensity Mapping with the SKAO: Precursor Progress with MeerKAT's Large Area Synoptic Survey (MeerKLASS)

Steven Cunnington, Jingying Wang, Mario G. Santos +16

Using the SKAO to map the intensity of neutral hydrogen's 21cm emission line will be a golden opportunity to constrain models of cosmology. To access the largest cosmological scale…

A Statistical Study of HI Gas in AGN-Hosting and Satellite Galaxies from ALFALFA and FASHI

Shuanghao Shu, Wenkai Hu, Junqiang Ge +6

We investigate the relative importance of Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) feedback and environmental processes using a large sample of HI galaxies from the ALFALFA and FASHI surveys.…

Observational Frontiers in the post-EoR 21-cm Intensity Mapping: Lessons from the SKA Pathfinders

Khandakar Md Asif Elahi, Somnath Bharadwaj, Philip Bull +21

The 21-cm line from neutral hydrogen has long been recognised as a promising tracer of the large-scale structure of the Universe. The line is weak however, making individual galaxy…

CRAFTS for HI cosmology: I. data processing pipeline and validation tests

Wenxiu Yang, Laura Wolz, Yichao Li +20

We present the calibration procedures and validation of source measurement with the data of the Commensal Radio Astronomy FAST Survey (CRAFTS) for \HI intensity mapping by the Five…

Hydrogen intensity mapping with MeerKAT: Preserving cosmological signal by optimising contaminant separation

Isabella P. Carucci, José L. Bernal, Steven Cunnington +9

Removing contaminants is a delicate, yet crucial step in neutral hydrogen (HI) intensity mapping and often considered the technique's greatest challenge. Here, we address this chal…

MeerKLASS L-band deep-field intensity maps: entering the HI dominated regime

MeerKLASS Collaboration, Matilde Barberi-Squarotti, José L. Bernal +18

We present results from MeerKAT single-dish HI intensity maps, the final observations to be performed in L-band in the MeerKAT Large Area Synoptic Survey (MeerKLASS) campaign. The…

Radio Frequency Interference from Radio Navigation Satellite Systems: simulations and comparison to MeerKAT single-dish data

Brandon Engelbrecht, Mario G. Santos, José Fonseca +11

Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) is emitted from various sources, terrestrial or orbital, and create a nuisance for ground-based 21cm experiments. In particular, single-dish 21cm…

Mitigating the effect of 1/f noise on the detection of the HI intensity mapping power spectrum from single-dish measurements

Melis O. Irfan, Yichao Li, Mario G. Santos +5

We present and compare several methods to mitigate time-correlated (1/f) noise within the HI intensity mapping component of the MeerKAT Large Area Synoptic Survey (MeerKLASS). By s…
