Tomographic Mapping of Cosmic Structure Growth with HIRAX and Rubin-LSST

Project Description:

This project aims to implement a tomographic analysis with HIRAX (Hydrogen Intensity and Real-time Analysis eXperiment) and Rubin-LSST (Legacy Survey of Space and Time) to achieve high-fidelity constraints on cosmological parameters. The synergy between HIRAX and Rubin-LSST presents a unique opportunity to measure the growth structure of the universe with unprecedented precision. We can enhance our understanding of the large-scale structure and cosmic evolution by leveraging tomographic techniques applied to this data.
