一种改进的21cm前景去除方法

An Improved Method for 21cm Foreground Removal

Adrian Liu, Max Tegmark, Judd Bowman, Jacqueline Hewitt, Matias Zaldarriaga

摘要:

21 cm断层扫描预计是困难的,部分原因是严重的前景污染。以往的研究发现,视线的方法是能够清洁前景到一个可接受的水平在大的空间尺度上,但不是在小的空间尺度。在本文中,我们介绍了一个傅立叶空间的形式主义描述的视线方法,并使用它来介绍一个改进的新方法,为21厘米的前景清洁。启发式地,该方法涉及使用加权多项式拟合在傅立叶空间中拟合前景,其中每个像素根据其信息内容加权。我们表明,新的方法再现了旧的大角度尺度上,并在小尺度上,基本上没有额外的计算成本显着改善。

英文摘要:

21 cm tomography is expected to be difficult in part because of serious foreground contamination. Previous studies have found that line-of-sight approaches are capable of cleaning foregrounds to an acceptable level on large spatial scales, but not on small spatial scales. In this paper, we introduce a Fourier-space formalism for describing the line-of-sight methods, and use it to introduce an improved new method for 21 cm foreground cleaning. Heuristically, this method involves fitting foregrounds in Fourier space using weighted polynomial fits, with each pixel weighted according to its information content. We show that the new method reproduces the old one on large angular scales, and gives marked improvements on small scales at essentially no extra computational cost.
