abstract
The redshifted 1420 MHz emission from the HI in unresolved damped Lyman-\alpha clouds at high z will appear as a background radiation in low frequency radio observations. This holds the possibility of a new tool for studying the universe at high-z, using the mean brightness temperature to probe the HI content and its fluctuations to probe the power spectrum. Existing estimates of the HI density at z~3 imply a mean brightness temperature of 1 mK at 320 Mhz. The cross-correlation between the temperature fluctuations across different frequencies and sight lines is predicted to vary from 10^{-7} K^2 to 10^{-8} K^2 over intervals corresponding to spatial scales from 10 Mpc to 40 Mpc for some of the currently favoured cosmological models. Comparing this with the expected sensitivity of the GMRT, we find that this can be detected with \~10 hrs of integration, provided we can distinguish it from the galactic and extragalactic foregrounds which will swamp this signal. We discuss a strategy based on the very distinct spectral properties of the foregrounds as against the HI emission, possibly allowing the removal of the foregrounds from the observed maps.

meer21cm is a publicly available Python toolkit for post-calibration analysis of single-dish HI intensity mapping surveys, achieving percent-level accuracy on simulated MeerKAT data in the k range 0.02-0.2 h/Mpc.
Fisher forecasts indicate that Lyα-21cm cross-spectra with PUMA and CMB data can improve constraints on neutrino self-interaction strength G_eff by 1-2 orders of magnitude over CMB alone.
