Indeed, the synchrotron emission of the 718 Milky Way and the extra galactic radio sources is a thousand time brighter than the 719 emission of the neutral hydrogen distributed in the universe. Extracting the LSS signal 720 using Intensity Mapping, without identifying the \HI point sources is the main challenge 721 for this novel observation method. Although this task might seem impossible at first, 722 it has been suggested that the smooth frequency dependence of the synchrotron 723 emissions can be used to separate the faint LSS signal from the Galactic and radio source 724 emissions. However, any real radio instrument has a beam shape which changes with 725 frequency which significantly increases the difficulty and complexity of this component separation 726 technique. The effect of frequency dependent beam shape is often referred to as {\em 727 mode mixing} \citep{morales.09}. 728 729 In this section, we present a short description of the foreground emissions and 730 the simple models we have used for computing the sky radio emissions in the GHz frequency 731 range. We present also a simple component separation method to extract the LSS signal and 732 its performance. We show in particular the effect of the instrument response and possible 733 way of getting around this difficulty. The results presented in this section concern the 734 total sky emission and the LSS 21 cm signal extraction in the $z \sim 0.6$ redshift range, 735 corresponding to the central frequency $\nu \sim 884$ MHz. 736 717 737 \subsection{ Synchrotron and radio sources } 718 % {\color{red} \large \it Reza (+ J.M.

Unless otherwise specified, the results presented here are based on simulations of 741 $90 \times 30 \simeq 2500 \mathrm{deg^2}$ of the sky, centered on $\alpha= 10:00 \mathrm{h} , \delta=+10 \mathrm{deg.}$, 742 and covering 128 MHz in frequency. The sky cube characteristics (coordinate range, size, resolution) 743 used in the simulations is given in the table below: 744 \begin{center} 745 \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} 746 \hline 747 & range & center \\ 748 \hline 749 Right ascension & 105 $ < \alpha < $ 195 deg. & 150 deg.\\ 750 Declination & -5 $ < \delta < $ 25 deg. & +10 deg. \\ 751 Frequency & 820 $ < \nu < $ 948 MHz & 884 MHz \\ 752 Wavelength & 36.6 $ < \lambda < $ 31.6 cm & 33.9 cm \\ 753 Redshift & 0.73 $ < z < $ 0.5 & 0.61 \\ 754 \hline 755 \hline 756 & resolution & N-cells \\ 757 \hline 758 Right ascension & 3 arcmin & 1800 \\ 759 Declination & 3 arcmin & 600 \\ 760 Frequency & 500 kHz ($d z \sim 10^{-3}$) & 256 \\ 761 \hline 762 \end{tabular} \\ 763 Cube size : $ 90 \, \mathrm{deg.} \times 30 \, \mathrm{deg.} \times 128 \, \mathrm{MHz}$ \\ 764 $ 1800 \times 600 \times 256 \simeq 123 \, 10^6$ cells 765 \end{center} 766 767 Two different methods have been used to compute the sky temperature data cubes. 768 We have used the Global Sky Model (GSM) \citep{gsm.08} tools to generate full sky 769 maps of the emission temperature at different frequencies, from which we have 770 extracted the brightness temperature cube for the region defined above 771 (Model-I/GSM $T_{gsm}(\alpha, \delta, \nu)$). 772 As the GSM maps have an intrinsic resolution of $\sim$ 0.5 degree, it is 773 difficult to have reliable results for the effect of point sources on the reconstructed 774 LSS power spectrum. 775 776 We have thus also created a simple sky model using the Haslam Galactic synchrotron map 777 at 408 Mhz \citep{haslam.08} and the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) 1.4 GHz radio source 778 catalog \cite{nvss.98}. The sky temperature cube in this model (Model-II/Haslam+NVSS) 779 has been computed through the following steps: 780 781 \begin{enumerate} 782 \item The Galactic synchrotron emission is modeled as a sum of two power law. 783 We assign a power law index $\beta = -2.8 \pm 0.15$ to each sky direction. 784 $\beta$ has a gaussian distribution centered at -2.8 and with standard 785 deviation $\sigma_\beta = 0.15$. 786 The synchrotron contribution to the sky temperature for each cell is then 787 obtained through the formula: 788 $$ T_{sync}(\alpha, \delta, \nu) = T_{haslam} \times \left(\frac{\nu}{408 MHz}\right)^\beta $$ 789 %% 790 \item A two dimensional $T_{nvss}(\alpha,\delta)$sky brightness temperature at 1.4 GHz is computed 791 by projecting the radio sources in the NVSS catalog to a grid with the same angular resolution as 792 the sky cubes is computed. The source brightness in Jansky is converted to temperature taking the 793 pixel angular size into account ($ \sim 21 \mathrm{mK / mJansky}$ at 1.4 Ghz and $3' \times 3'$ pixels). 794 A sepctral index $\beta_{src} \in [-1.5,-2]$ is also assigned to each sky direction for the radio source 795 map; we have taken $\beta_{src}$ as a flat random number in the range $[-1.5,-2]$, and the 796 contribution of the radiosources to the sky temperature is computed as follow: 797 $$ T_{radsrc}(\alpha, \delta, \nu) = T_{nvss} \times \left(\frac{\nu}{1420 MHz}\right)^{\beta_{src}} $$ 798 %% 799 \item The sky brightness temperature data cube is obtained through the sum of 800 the two contributions, Galactic synchrotron and resolved radio sources: 801 $$ T_{fgnd}(\alpha, \delta, \nu) = T_{sync}(\alpha, \delta, \nu) + T_{sync}(\alpha, \delta, \nu) $$ 802 \end{enumerate} 803 804 The 21 cm temperature fluctuations due to neutral hydrogen in large scale structures 805 $T_{lss}(\alpha, \delta, \nu)$ has been computed using the SimLSS software package 806 \footnote{SimLSS : {\tt http://www.sophya.org/SimLSS} }. 807 {\color{red}: CMV, please add few line description of SimLSS}. 808 We have generated the mass fluctuations $\delta \rho/rho$ at $z=0.6$, in cells of size 809 $1.9 \times 1.9 \times 2.8 \, \mathrm{Mpc^3}$, which correspond approximately to the 810 sky cube angular and frequency resolution defined above. The mass fluctuations has been 811 converted into temperature through a factor $0.13 mK$, corresponding to a hydrogen 812 fraction $0.008x(1+0.6)$. The total sky brightness temperature is then computed as the sum 813 of foregrounds and the LSS 21 cm emission: 814 $$ T_{sky} = T_{sync}+T_{radsrc}+T_{lss} \hspace{5mm} OR \hspace{5mm} 815 T_{sky} = T_{gsm}+T_{lss} $$ 816 817 Table \ref{sigtsky} summarizes the mean and standard deviation of the sky brightness 818 temperature $T(\alpha, \delta, \nu)$ for the different components computed in this study. 819 Figure \ref{compgsmmap} shows the comparison of the GSM temperature map at 884 MHz 820 with Haslam+NVSS map, smoothed with a 35 arcmin gaussian beam. 821 Figure \ref{compgsmhtemp} shows the comparison of the sky cube temperature distribution 822 for Model-I/GSM and Model-II. There is good agreement between the two models, although 823 the mean temperature for Model-II is slightly higher ($\sim 10\%$) than Model-I. 824 825 \begin{table} 826 \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} 827 \hline 828 & mean (K) & std.dev (K) \\ 829 \hline 830 Haslam & 2.17 & 0.6 \\ 831 NVSS & 0.13 & 7.73 \\ 832 Haslam+NVSS & 2.3 & 7.75 \\ 833 (Haslam+NVSS)*Lobe(35') & 2.3 & 0.72 \\ 834 GSM & 2.1 & 0.8 \\ 835 \hline 836 \end{tabular} 837 \caption{ Mean temperature and standard deviation for the different sky brightness 838 data cubes computed for this study} 839 \label{sigtsky} 840 \end{table} 841 842 we have computed the power spectrum on the 21cm-LSS sky temperature cube, as well 843 as on the radio foreground temperature cubes computed using our two foreground 844 models. We have also computed the power spectrum on sky brightness temperature 845 cubes, as measured by a perfect instrument having a 25 arcmin gaussian beam. 846 The resulting computed power spectrum are shown on figure \ref{pkgsmlss}. 847 The GSM model has more large scale power compared to our simple model, while 848 it lacks power at higher spatial frequencies. The mode mixing due to 849 frequency dependent response will thus be stronger in Model-II (Haslam+NVSS) 850 case. It can also be seen that the radio foreground power spectrum is more than 851 $\sim 10^6$ times higher than the 21 cm signal from large scale structures. This corresponds 852 to the factor $\sim 10^3$ of the sky brightness temperature fluctuations ($\sim$ K), 853 compared to the mK LSS signal. 854 855 \begin{figure} 856 \centering 857 \mbox{ 858 \hspace*{-10mm} 859 \includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{Figs/comptempgsm.pdf} 860 } 861 \caption{Comparison of GSM (black) Model-II (red) sky cube temperature distribution. 862 The Model-II (Haslam+NVSS), 863 has been smoothed with a 35 arcmin gaussian beam. } 864 \label{compgsmhtemp} 865 \end{figure} 866 867 \begin{figure*} 868 \centering 869 \mbox{ 870 \hspace*{-10mm} 871 \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{Figs/compmapgsm.pdf} 872 } 873 \caption{Comparison of GSM map (top) and Model-II sky map at 884 MHz (bottom). 874 The Model-II (Haslam+NVSS) has been smoothed with a 35 arcmin gaussian beam.} 875 \label{compgsmmap} 876 \end{figure*} 877 878 \begin{figure} 879 \centering 880 \vspace*{-20mm} 881 \mbox{ 882 \hspace*{-20mm} 883 \includegraphics[width=0.7\textwidth]{Figs/pk_gsm_lss.pdf} 884 } 885 \vspace*{-30mm} 886 \caption{Comparison of the 21cm LSS power spectrum (red, orange) with the radio foreground power spectrum. 887 The radio sky power spectrum is shown for the GSM (Model-I) sky model (dark blue), as well as for our simple 888 model based on Haslam+NVSS (Model-II, black).
