21-cm signatures of residual HI inside cosmic HII regions during reionization
We investigate the impact of sinks of ionizing radiation on the reionization-era 21-cm signal, focusing on 1-point statistics. We consider sinks in both the intergalactic medium and inside galaxies. At a fixed filling factor of H II regions, sinks will have two main effects on the 21-cm morphology: (i) as inhomogeneous absorbers of ionizing photons they result in smaller and more widespread cos...
متن کاملHI 21 cm - line observations with the GMRT towards interstellar clouds previously seen in optical absorption
We have made HI 21cm-line absorption measurements using the GMRT towards 15 directions in the Galaxy which are known to have high random velocity clouds as seen in the optical absorption lines of CaII and NaI. For the first time, in 6 out of these 15 directions we detect HI absorption features corresponding to the high random velocity optical absorption lines. The mean optical depth of these de...
متن کاملProbing the bispectrum at high redshifts using 21 cm HI observations
Observations of fluctuations in the redshifted 21 cm radiation from neautral hydrogen (HI) are perceived to be an important future probe of the universe at high redshifts. Under the assimption that at redshifts z ≤ 6 (Post-Reionization Era) the HI traces the underlying dark matter with a possible bias, we investigate the possibility of using observations of redshifted 21 cm radiation to detect ...
متن کاملVisibility of Old Supernova Remnants in Hi 21 - cm
We estimate the number of old, radiative supernova remnants (SNRs) detectable in Hi 21-cm emission line in the Galaxy. We assume that old SNRs consist of expanding Hi shells and that they are visible if the line-of-sight velocities are sufficiently outside the velocity range of the Galactic background Hi emission. This criterion of visibility makes it possible to calculate the background contam...
متن کاملLocal benchmarks for SKA HI 21-cm surveys
One of the obvious tasks for the Square Kilometer Array is to perform deep neutral hydrogen 21-cm emission line surveys out to large redshifts. For the planning of these surveys, and for the interpretation of the results, it is important to have solid z = 0 benchmarks. This paper summarizes some of the results of local extragalactic 21-cm surveys and their implications on the interpretation of ...
