Delay Spectrum with Phase-Tracking Arrays: Extracting the HI power spectrum from the Epoch of Reionization
Sourabh Paul, Shiv K. Sethi, Miguel F. Morales +51
The Detection of redshifted 21 cm emission from the epoch of reionization (EoR) is a challenging task owing to strong foregrounds that dominate the signal. In this paper, we propos…
First Limits on the 21 cm Power Spectrum during the Epoch of X-ray heating
A. Ewall-Wice, Joshua S. Dillon, J. N. Hewitt +62
We present first results from radio observations with the Murchison Widefield Array seeking to constrain the power spectrum of 21 cm brightness temperature fluctuations between the…
A search for Fast Radio Bursts at low frequencies with Murchison Widefield Array high time resolution imaging
S. J. Tingay, C. M. Trott, R. B. Wayth +26
We present the results of a pilot study search for Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) at low frequencies (139 - 170 MHz). We utilised MWA data obtai…
Confirmation of Wide-Field Signatures in Redshifted 21 cm Power Spectra
Nithyanandan Thyagarajan, Daniel C. Jacobs, Judd D. Bowman +52
We confirm our recent prediction of the "pitchfork" foreground signature in power spectra of high-redshift 21 cm measurements where the interferometer is sensitive to large-scale s…
Empirical Covariance Modeling for 21 cm Power Spectrum Estimation: A Method Demonstration and New Limits from Early Murchison Widefield Array 128-Tile Data
Joshua S. Dillon, Abraham R. Neben, Jacqueline N. Hewitt +52
The separation of the faint cosmological background signal from bright astrophysical foregrounds remains one of the most daunting challenges of mapping the high-redshift intergalac…
A study of fundamental limitations to statistical detection of redshifted HI from the epoch of reionization
Nithyanandan Thyagarajan, N. Udaya Shankar, Ravi Subrahmanyan +46
In this paper we explore for the first time the relative magnitudes of three fundamental sources of uncertainty, namely, foreground contamination, thermal noise and sample variance…
The giant lobes of Centaurus A observed at 118 MHz with the Murchison Widefield Array
B. McKinley, F. Briggs, B. M. Gaensler +50
We present new wide-field observations of Centaurus A (Cen A) and the surrounding region at 118 MHz with the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) 32-tile prototype, with which we invest…
A 189 MHz, 2400 square degree polarization survey with the Murchison Widefield Array 32-element prototype
G. Bernardi, L. J. Greenhill, D. A. Mitchell +50
We present a Stokes I, Q and U survey at 189 MHz with the Murchison Widefield Array 32-element prototype covering 2400 square degrees. The survey has a 15.6 arcmin angular resoluti…
Low Frequency Observations of the Moon with the Murchison Widefield Array
B. McKinley, F. Briggs, D. L. Kaplan +49
A new generation of low frequency radio telescopes is seeking to observe the redshifted 21 cm signal from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR), requiring innovative methods of calibrati…
Low Frequency Imaging of Fields at High Galactic Latitude with the Murchison Widefield Array 32-Element Prototype
Christopher L. Williams, Jacqueline N. Hewitt, Alan M. Levine +54
The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is a new low-frequency, wide field-of-view radio interferometer under development at the Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory (MRO) in Western…
