Estimating Soil Electrical Parameters in the Canadian High Arctic from Impedance Measurements of the MIST Antenna Above the Surface
I. Hendricksen, R. A. Monsalve, V. Bidula +13
The MIST experiment aims to detect the cosmological 21-cm signal through sky observations at 25-125 MHz using a wide-beam antenna. The antenna is mounted above the soil and the bea…

A low-cost ice melt monitoring system using wind-induced motion of mass-balance stakes
Felix St-Amour, H. Cynthia Chiang, Jamie Cox +4
Surface ablation measurements of glaciers are critical for understanding mass change over time. Mass-balance stakes are commonly used for localized measurements, with the exposed l…

Using the antenna impedance to estimate soil electrical parameters for the MIST global 21-cm experiment
Cinthia Altamirano, Ricardo Bustos, Raul A. Monsalve +11
Radio experiments trying to detect the global ~cm signal from the early Universe are very sensitive to the electrical properties of their environment. For ground-based experime…
