Mitigating Internal Instrument Coupling II: A Method Demonstration with the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array
Nicholas S. Kern, Aaron R. Parsons, Joshua S. Dillon +63
We present a study of internal reflection and cross coupling systematics in Phase I of the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA). In a companion paper, we outlined the mathem…
Absolute Calibration Strategies for the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array and Their Impact on the 21 cm Power Spectrum
Nicholas S. Kern, Joshua S. Dillon, Aaron R. Parsons +69
We discuss absolute calibration strategies for Phase I of the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA), which aims to measure the cosmological 21 cm signal from the Epoch of Rei…
Understanding the HERA Phase I receiver system with simulations and its impact on the detectability of the EoR delay power spectrum
Nicolas Fagnoni, Eloy de Lera Acedo, David R. DeBoer +67
The detection of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) delay power spectrum using a "foreground avoidance method" highly depends on the instrument chromaticity. The systematic effects in…
Research and Development for HI Intensity Mapping
Zeeshan Ahmed, David Alonso, Mustafa A. Amin +51
Development of the hardware, data analysis, and simulation techniques for large compact radio arrays dedicated to mapping the 21 cm line of neutral hydrogen gas has proven to be mo…
Packed Ultra-wideband Mapping Array (PUMA): A Radio Telescope for Cosmology and Transients
Kevin Bandura, Emanuele Castorina, Liam Connor +23
PUMA is a proposal for an ultra-wideband, low-resolution and transit interferometric radio telescope operating at . Its design is driven by six science goal…
A Roadmap for Astrophysics and Cosmology with High-Redshift 21 cm Intensity Mapping
The Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array, Collaboration, James E. Aguirre +29
In this white paper, we lay out a US roadmap for high-redshift 21 cm cosmology (30 < z < 6) in the 2020s. Beginning with the currently-funded HERA and MWA Phase II projects and adv…
Modified Gravity and Dark Energy models Beyond CDM Testable by LSST
Mustapha Ishak, Tessa Baker, Philip Bull +8
One of the main science goals of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is to uncover the nature of cosmic acceleration. In the base analysis, possible deviations from the Lamb…
Inflation and Dark Energy from spectroscopy at
Simone Ferraro, Michael J. Wilson, Muntazir Abidi +140
The expansion of the Universe is understood to have accelerated during two epochs: in its very first moments during a period of Inflation and much more recently, at , when D…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Insights Into the Epoch of Reionization with the Highly-Redshifted 21-cm Line
Steven Furlanetto, Chris L. Carilli, Jordan Mirocha +47
The epoch of reionization, when photons from early galaxies ionized the intergalactic medium about a billion years after the Big Bang, is the last major phase transition in the Uni…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Synergies Between Galaxy Surveys and Reionization Measurements
Steven Furlanetto, Adam Beardsley, Chris L. Carilli +47
The early phases of galaxy formation constitute one of the most exciting frontiers in astrophysics. It is during this era that the first luminous sources reionize the intergalactic…
Cosmology with the Highly Redshifted 21cm Line
Adrian Liu, James Aguirre, Yacine Ali-Haimoud +47
In addition to being a probe of Cosmic Dawn and Epoch of Reionization astrophysics, the 21cm line at is also a powerful way to constrain cosmology. Its power derives from sev…
Astro 2020 Science White Paper: Fundamental Cosmology in the Dark Ages with 21-cm Line Fluctuations
Steven Furlanetto, Judd D. Bowman, Jordan Mirocha +43
The Dark Ages are the period between the last scattering of the cosmic microwave background and the appearance of the first luminous sources, spanning approximately 1100 < z < 30.…
Primordial Non-Gaussianity
P. Daniel Meerburg, Daniel Green, Muntazir Abidi +175
Our current understanding of the Universe is established through the pristine measurements of structure in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the distribution and shapes of…
Mapping Cosmic Dawn and Reionization: Challenges and Synergies
Marcelo A. Alvarez, Anastasia Fialkov, Paul La Plante +47
Cosmic dawn and the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) are among the least explored observational eras in cosmology: a time at which the first galaxies and supermassive black holes formed…
