The Epoch of Reionisation (EoR) holds the key to our understanding of the first luminous sources in the Universe. The latest generation of low frequency radio interferometers have opened a direct window into the EoR. However, experiments searching for a signal from the EoR are sensitive to bias. This thesis explores the impact of various errors in the calibration of EoR instruments and our ability to detect a signal from these early times. | en_US |
