我们想知道什么
•最初的恒星和星系如何形成和演化? (How do first
generation objects form and evolve?)
•第一星系的环境是什么? What is the environment of
first galaxies?)
•什么时候再电离期开始了? ?When did reionization
start?)
•再电离的来源是什么 ?(What is source of
reionization?)
…etc

Hydrogen
Why hydrogen? Because hydrogen is the most abundant
component in the IGM.
•21cm line radiation : Neutral hydrogen atom in IGM emits radiation due
to the hyperfine structure.
→ 1.5m or 202 MHz
→ 4.4m or 68MHz

Radio wavelength.
(Neutral) hydrogen atom is good tracer for IGM.

•They obtained some constraints on astrophysical
parameters from 21cm power spectrum upper limits.
•HERA firstly constrains X-ray parameters at high
redshift.
•High redshift galaxies suggest higher X-ray luminosity
and lower metallicity than local galaxies.
