Understanding the HERA Phase I receiver system with simulations and its impact on the detectability of the EoR delay power spectrum

The detection of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) delay power spectrum using a 'foreground avoidance method' highly depends on the instrument chromaticity. The systematic effects induced by the radio telescope spread the foreground signal in the delay domain, which contaminates the EoR wind...
