This chapter describes the astrophysics encoded by the 21-cm background. We begin with a brief introduction to the radiative transfer and ionization chemistry relevant to the high-z intergalactic medium. Then, we will provide a review of the most plausible sources of ionization and heating in the early Universe. Finally, we will explore a variety of current 21-cm predictions, and illustrate the sensitivity of the global 21-cm signal and power spectrum to parameters of interest.

  1. Forecast on $f(R)$ Gravity with HI 21cm Intensity Mapping Surveys

    astro-ph.CO 2026-02 conditional novelty 4.0

    Fisher forecasts show BINGO and SKA1-MID 21-cm intensity mapping, combined with Planck priors, could constrain the f(R) gravity parameter B0 down to ~10⁻⁶–10⁻⁸.
