Observing the neutral hydrogen distribution across the Universe via redshifted 21cm line intensity mapping constitutes a powerful probe for cosmology. However, the redshifted 21cm signal is obscured by the foreground emission from our…

The ability to subtract foreground contamination from low-frequency observations is crucial to reveal the underlying 21 cm signal. The traditional line-of-sight methods can deal with the removal of diffuse emission and unresolved point…
