Informing antenna design for sky-averaged 21-cm experiments using a simulated Bayesian data analysis pipeline

چکیده

ABSTRACT Global 21-cm experiments aim to measure the sky-averaged H i absorption signal from cosmic dawn and epoch of reionization. However, antenna chromaticity coupling bright foregrounds can introduce distortions into observational data such experiments. We demonstrate a method for guiding design global experiment through analysis simulations. This is done by performing simulated observations range inserted signals then attempting identify with pipeline. this on five antennas that were considered as potential designs Radio Experiment Analysis Cosmic Hydrogen: conical log spiral antenna, an inverted sinuous polygonal-, rectangular-, elliptical-bladed dipoles. find performs significantly better than other tested, able correctly confidently every signal. In second place polygonal dipole which was only unable detect both very low amplitudes 0.05 K centre frequency 80 MHz. The found perform least accurately, highest amplitude signals, even biases. also that, due non-trivial nature chromatic distortion processes correcting it, these are not results could have been expected superficially extent variation in each antenna.

SETHI@Berkeley– A Piggyback 21-cm Sky Survey at Arecibo

SETI@home observes a 2.5 MHz bandwidth centered on 1420 MHz near the 21-cm line using a short line feed at Arecibo which provides a 6 beam. This feed sits on Carriage House 1, which means that during normal astronomical observations with the new Gregorian dome the feed scans across the sky at twice the sidereal rate. We are using the SETI@home receiver to obtain about 4 4 106 spectra per year w...
