Interpreting the Unresolved Intensity of Cosmologically Redshifted Line Radiation
Intensity mapping experiments survey the spectrum of diffuse line radiation rather than detect individual objects at high signal-to-noise ratio. Spectral maps of unresolved atomic and molecular line radiation contain three-dimensional information about the density and environments of emitting gas and efficiently probe cosmological volumes out to high redshift. Intensity mapping survey volumes a...
متن کاملIntensity Mapping with Carbon Monoxide Emission Lines and the Redshifted 21 Cm Line
We quantify the prospects for using emission lines from rotational transitions of the CO molecule to perform an ‘intensity mapping’ observation at high redshift during the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). The aim of CO intensity mapping is to observe the combined CO emission from many unresolved galaxies, to measure the spatial fluctuations in this emission, and use this as a tracer of large scale ...
متن کاملThe First Light seen in the redshifted 21–cm radiation
We show how the investigation of the redshifted 21–cm radiation can give insight into the development of structures in the early universe (at redshifts z > 5). In particular we investigate: the epoch of the first light; the fluctuations in the redshifted 21–cm emission induced by the density inhomogeneities in CDM dominated universes; the emission and absorption shells that are generated around...
متن کاملBiased Reionisation and Non-Gaussianity in Redshifted 21cm Intensity Maps of the Reionisation Epoch
Spatial dependence in the statistics of redshifted 21cm fluctuations promises to provide the most powerful probe of the reionisation epoch. In this paper we consider the second and third moments of the redshifted 21cm intensity distribution using a simple model that accounts for galaxy bias during the reionisation process. We demonstrate that skewness in redshifted 21cm maps should be substanti...
