We model the 21cm power spectrum across the Cosmic Dawn and the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) in fuzzy dark matter (FDM) cosmologies. The suppression of small mass halos in FDM models leads to a delay in the onset redshift of these epochs…
Fluctuations in the 21cm brightness from cosmic hydrogen at redshifts z > 6 were sourced by the primordial density perturbations from inflation as well as by the radiation from galaxies. We propose a method to separate these components…
At redshifts z >~ 30 neutral hydrogen gas absorbs CMB radiation at the 21cm spin-flip frequency. In principle this is observable and a high-precision probe of cosmology. We calculate the linear-theory angular power spectrum of this signal…
The Lyman alpha line is a robust tracer of high redshift galaxies. We present estimates of Lyman alpha emission from a protogalactic halo illuminated by UV background radiation fields with various intensities. For this purpose, we performed…
We discuss the 21cm power spectrum (PS) following the completion of reionization. In contrast to the reionization era, this PS is proportional to the PS of mass density fluctuations, with only a small modulation due to fluctuations in the…
Detecting $\rm H_I$ 21cm line in the intergalactic medium (IGM) during the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) suffers from foreground contamination such as Galactic synchrotron and extragalactic radio sources. Cross-correlation between the 21cm…
A unified description is provided for the 21cm signatures arising from minihaloes against a bright background radio source and against the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), within the context of a dynamical collapsing cosmological…
The H atoms inside minihalos (i.e. halos with virial temperatures T_vir < 10^4 K, in the mass range roughly from 10^4 M_sun to 10^8 M_sun) during the cosmic dark ages in a LambdaCDM universe produce a redshifted background of…
We extend 21CMMC, a Monte Carlo Markov Chain sampler of 3D reionisation simulations, to perform parameter estimation directly on 3D light-cones of the cosmic 21cm signal. This brings theoretical analysis closer to the tomographic 21-cm…
A recent observation by the EDGES collaboration shows a strong absorption signal in the global 21-cm spectrum from around a redshift of $z = 17$. This absorption is stronger than the maximum prediction by existing models and indicates that…
The H atoms inside minihalos (i.e. halos with virial temperatures T_vir < 10^4 K, in the mass range roughly from 10^4 M_sun to 10^8 M_sun) during the cosmic dark ages in a LCDM universe produce a redshifted background of…
Fluctuations of the 21 cm brightness temperature before the formation of the first stars hold the promise of becoming a high-precision cosmological probe in the future. The growth of over densities is very well described by perturbation…
This paper considers the impact of Lyman-alpha coupling and X-ray heating on the 21-cm brightness-temperature one-point statistics (as predicted by semi-numerical simulations). The X-ray production efficiency is varied over four orders of…
We present an overview of the theory of high-redshift star and X-ray source formation, and how they affect the 21-cm background. Primary focus is given to Lyman alpha pumping and X-ray heating mechanisms at cosmic dawn, opening a new…
Accurate knowledge of the non-linear dark-matter power spectrum is important for understanding the large-scale structure of the Universe, the statistics of dark-matter haloes and their evolution, and cosmological gravitational lensing. We…
We investigate the cross-correlation signal between 21cm intensity mapping maps and the Lyman-alpha forest in the fully non-linear regime using state-of-the-art hydrodynamic simulations. The cross-correlation signal between these fields can…
We present here predictions for the spatial distribution of 21 cm brightness temperature fluctuations from high-dynamic-range simulations for AGN-dominated reionization histories that have been tested against available Lyman-alpha and CMB…
The emission in the hyperfine structure 21 cm line of atomic hydrogen arising in the halos with masses $\sim10^6-10^{10}$ M$_\odot$ from the Dark Ages in the models with Warm Dark Matter (WDM) is analysed. The halos are assumed to be formed…
The distribution of 21 cm emission from neutral hydrogen is a powerful cosmological and astrophysical probe, as it traces the underlying dark matter and cold gas distributions throughout cosmic times. However, the prediction of observable…
The 21-cm emission line from neutral hydrogen during the cosmic Dark Ages can be a powerful probe of cosmological models and early universe physics. This work provides a quantitative forecast for the design requirements of a lunar far-side…
