AbstractMeasurements of the spatial clustering of matter in the universe can reveal clues about the nature of the mysterious “dark energy” that is causing the universe’s expansion to accelerate. A new powerful way to measure this clustering at early epochs in the universe’s history is to use radio telescopes to detect the hydrogen gas that is ubiquitous in all galaxies.
