A radiometric receiver for measuring red-shifted 21cm emission from the Epoch of Reionisation

This thesis presents the design, construction and performance of a specialised, low noise, compact radiometric receiver optimised for Epoch of Reionisation experiments. This project developed an optimum radiometer configuration to achieve resolution and calibration stability below 100 mK including t...
