Using a spectral stacking technique, we measure the neutral hydrogen (HI) properties of a sample of galaxies at $z < 0.11$ across 35 pointings of the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT). The radio data contains 1,895 galaxies with…

The first direct measurements of the HI intensity mapping power spectrum were recently made using the MeerKAT telescope. These measurements are on nonlinear scales, at redshifts 0.32 and 0.44. We develop a formalism for modelling…
