The Murchison Widefield Array Phase III upgrade: Sensitivity Doubled, Number of Baselines Quadrupled, Flexibility Enhanced, and EoR Observations Optimised
S. J. Tingay, M. Johnston-Hollitt, R. B. Wayth +32
We describe the latest iteration of upgrades (designated Phase III) to the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), in the fourth paper in a series that covers the evolution of the telesco…
NIAC project report: Solar system-scale VLBI to dramatically improve cosmological distance measurements
Matthew McQuinn, Miguel Morales, Casey McGrath +7
We investigate the feasibility and scientific potential of the Cosmic Positioning System (CPS), a space mission concept enabling purely geometric distance measurements to sources a…
First Results from HERA Phase II
The HERA Collaboration, Zuhra Abdurashidova, Tyrone Adams +83
We report the first upper limits on the power spectrum of 21-cm fluctuations during the Epoch of Reionization and Cosmic Dawn from Phase II of the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Ar…
Exploring One-point Statistics in HERA Phase I Data: Effects of Foregrounds and Systematics on Measuring One-Point Statistics
Honggeun Kim, Jacqueline N. Hewitt, Nicholas S. Kern +61
Measuring one-point statistics in redshifted 21 cm intensity maps offers an opportunity to explore non-Gaussian features of the early universe. We assess the impact of instrumental…
Improved limits on the 21cm signal at z=6.5-7.0 with the MWA using Gaussian information
Cathryn M. Trott, C. D. Nunhokee, D. Null +29
We explore the properties of interferometric data from high-redshift 21~cm measurements using the Murchison Widefield Array. These data contain redshifted 21~cm signal, contaminati…
Limits on the 21 cm power spectrum at z=6.5-7.0 from MWA observations
C. D. Nunhokee, D. Null, C. M Trott +29
This paper presents the spherically-averaged 21 cm power spectrum derived from Epoch of Reionization (EoR) observations conducted with the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA). The anal…
