Upper limits on the 21-cm Epoch of Reionization power spectrum from one night with LOFAR

A. H. Patil, S. Yatawatta, L. V. E. Koopmans +25

We present the first limits on the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) 21-cm HI power spectra, in the redshift range , using the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) High-Band Antenna (…

Systematic biases in low frequency radio interferometric data due to calibration: the LOFAR EoR case

Ajinkya H. Patil, Sarod Yatawatta, Saleem Zaroubi +8

The redshifted 21 cm line of neutral hydrogen is a promising probe of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). However, its detection requires a thorough understanding and control of the s…

Linear polarization structures in LOFAR observations of the interstellar medium in the 3C196 field

V. Jelić, A. G. de Bruyn, V. N. Pandey +21

This study aims to characterize linear polarization structures in LOFAR observations of the interstellar medium (ISM) in the 3C196 field, one of the primary fields of the LOFAR-Epo…

Polarization leakage in Epoch of Reionization windows: I. LOFAR observations of the 3C196 field

K. M. B. Asad, L. V. E. Koopmans, V. Jelić +25

Detection of the 21-cm signal coming from the epoch of reionization (EoR) is challenging especially because, even after removing the foregrounds, the residual Stokes maps conta…

Constraining the epoch of reionization with the variance statistic: simulations of the LOFAR case

Ajinkya H. Patil, Saleem Zaroubi, Emma Chapman +27

Several experiments are underway to detect the cosmic redshifted 21-cm signal from neutral hydrogen from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). Due to their very low signal-to-noise rati…
