Hi intensity mapping with the MIGHTEE Survey: first results of the Hi power spectrum
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society Oxford University Press 541:1 (2025) 476-493
Abstract:
We present the first results of the H i intensity mapping power spectrum analysis with the MeerKAT International GigaHertz Tiered Extragalactic Exploration (MIGHTEE) survey. We use data covering 4 square degrees in the COSMOS field using a frequency range of 962.5–1008.42 MHz, equivalent to H i emission in . The data consist of 15 pointings with a total of 94.2 h on-source. We verify the suitability of the MIGHTEE data for H i intensity mapping by testing for residual systematics across frequency, baselines, and pointings. We also vary the window used for H i signal measurements and find no significant improvement using stringent Fourier mode cuts. We compute the H i power spectrum at scales in autocorrelation as well as cross-correlation between observational scans using power spectrum domain averaging for pointings. We report consistent upper limits of 29.8 mK Mpc from the 2 cross-correlation measurements and 25.82 mK Mpc from autocorrelation at 2 Mpc.The low signal-to-noise ratio in this data potentially limits our ability to identify residual systematics, which will be addressed in the future by incorporating more data in the analysis.MIGHTEE-HI: The direct detection of neutral hydrogen in galaxies at $z>0.25$
