6 21cm transition : hyper fine structure of neutral hydrogen 21 cm fluctuations Line emission : Neutral hydrogen at z 21 cm fluctuations : sensitive to the neutral hydrogen

7 21 cm lines fluctuations The brightness temperature of the 21 cm lines (during the reionization epoch) The 21 cm line fluctuations depend on the fluctuations of the ionized fraction and the baryon density, and

8 Doppler effect velocity the temperature anisotropies during the reionisation CMB temperature anisotropy during reionisation Gravitational potential Free electron CMB photon redshifted (blueshifted) CMB : optical depth of Thomson scattering,

9 E-mode polarisation Thomson scattering + quadrupole in CMB temperature anisotropies produce the CMB polarisation E-mode polarisation depends on initial gravitational potential Expression of E-mode polarisation Source term : QuadrupoleTransfer function of CMB temp. quadrupole

10 Cross-correlation between 21 cm lines and CMB 21 cm lines : neutral hydrogen CMB anisotropy during reionisation Temperature anisotropy : Doppler effect Ionized fraction, density fluctuations Polarisation anisotropy : Thomson scattering Ionized fraction, quadrupole component of CMB temp. They are different direct and complementary probes of reionisation The cross-correlations will provide even more information than their respective auto-correlations We focus on the cross-correlation in the linear order ( large scales ).

12 Toy model of reionisation Ionised fraction is related to the ratio of ionising photons per hydrogen ionising photons comes from collapsed objects ( T_vir > 10^4 ) To obtain, we make two main assumptions Cross power spectrum Alvarez et al. (2006) : growth rate of matter power spectrum: average bias Evolution of average ionised fraction : reionisation epoch : reionisation duration > : minimum mass of sources

13 Angular power spectrum of the cross-correlation Spectrum shape reflects baryon density fluctuations The amplitude depends on the duration of reionisation The longer the reionisation lasts, the lower the amplitude becomes.

14 CMB temp. : electron density 21 cm fluctuation : HI density Angular power spectrum of the cross-correlation Alvarez et al. (2006) z_re=15 z_re=12 is the redshift, when If, the amplitude reaches to maximum The evolution of the peak amplitude Multi frequency 21cm observations

16 Angular power spectrum of the cross-correlation If reionisation has the long duration, quadrupole components during reionisation are superposed. damping of the oscillations on small scales Spectrum shape reflects the quadrupole of CMB 1-st peak position The angular separation scale of the quadrupole component The duration of reionisation induces The longer it lasts, the more oscillations are damped.

24 21 cm line - CMB E-mode cross-correlation Noise : “super SKA” The 21-cm and E-mode cross-correlation signal with the estimated errors. z_obs=10, z_ re=10. but CMB noise (primordial E-mode component) is large on theses scales Long duration causes the suppression on the small scales,

25 21 cm line - CMB E-mode cross-correlation Tashiro et al. 2009 SN ratio is not sensitive to the duration of the reionisation

26 Summary We investigated the detectability of the 21cm-CMB cross-correlation by the signal-to-noise analysis. The 21 cm-CMB temp. cross-correlation is sensitive to the reionization duration. Therefore the SN ratio depends on the reionization duration. If the reionisation process is instantaneous, LOFAR can detect the cross-correlation signal between CMB temp. and 21 cm fluctuations with S/N=1. The detection of the 21 cm-Emode cross-correlation is difficult. The noise from the primordial E-mode polarization is dominant on small scales. Therefore, the 21cm-Emode cross-correlation is insensitive to the reionization duration.
