Neutral hydrogen surveys for high redshift galaxy clusters and proto-clusters
read the original abstract
We discuss the possibility of performing blind surveys to detect large-scale features of the universe using 21cm emission. Using instruments with approx. 5'-10' resolution currently in the planning stage, it should be possible to detect virialized galaxy clusters at intermediate redshifts using the combined emission from their constituent galaxies, as well as less overdense structures, such as proto-clusters and the `cosmic web', at higher redshifts. Using semi-analytic methods we compute the number of virialized objects and those at turnaround which might be detected by such surveys. We find a surprisingly large number of objects might be detected even using small (approx. 5%) bandwidths and elaborate on some issues pertinent to optimising the design of the instrument and the survey strategy. The main uncertainty is the fraction of neutral gas relative to the total dark matter within the object. We discuss this issue in the context of the observations which are currently available.

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