The sky-averaged (global) 21-cm signal is a powerful probe of the intergalactic medium (IGM) prior to the completion of reionization. However, it has so far been unclear that even in the best case scenario, in which the signal is accurately…
Observations of the early Universe suggest that reionization was complete by $z\sim6$, however, the exact history of this process is still unknown. One method for measuring the evolution of the neutral fraction throughout this epoch is via…
Analyses of the cosmic 21-cm signal are hampered by astrophysical foregrounds that are far stronger than the signal itself. These foregrounds, typically confined to a wedge-shaped region in Fourier space, often necessitate the removal of a…
The bubble size distribution of ionized hydrogen regions probes the information about the morphology of \HII\ bubbles during the reionization. Conventionally, the \HII\ bubble size distribution can be derived from the tomographic imaging…

It has been claimed that traditional models struggle to explain the tentative detection of the 21\,cm absorption trough centered at $z\sim17$ measured by the EDGES collaboration. On the other hand, it has been shown that the EDGES results…
State-of-the-art simulations of reionisation-era 21-cm signal have limited volumes, generally orders of magnitude smaller than observations. Consequently, the Fourier modes in common between simulation and observation have limited overlap,…
Reionization is a process whereby hydrogen (and helium) in the Universe is ionized by the radiation from first luminous sources. Theoretically, the importance of the reionization lies in its close coupling with the formation of first cosmic…
