This paper presents the design and deployment of the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA) phase II system. HERA is designed as a staged experiment targeting 21 cm emission measurements of the Epoch of Reionization. First results from the phase I array are published as of early 2022, and deployment of the phase II system is nearing completion. We describe the design of the phase II system and discuss progress on commissioning and future upgrades. As HERA is a designated Square Kilometre Array pathfinder instrument, we also show a number of “case studies” that investigate systematics seen while commissioning the phase II system, which may be of use in the design and operation of future arrays. Common pathologies are likely to manifest in similar ways across instruments, and many of these sources of contamination can be mitigated once the source is identified.

氢时代再电离阵列(HERA)二期部署和调试

本文介绍了氢时代再电离阵列 (HERA) II 期系统的设计和部署。 HERA 被设计为一项分阶段实验,目标​​是再电离时代的 21 厘米发射测量。第一阶段阵列的首批结果将于 2022 年初发布,第二阶段系统的部署已接近完成。我们描述了第二阶段系统的设计,并讨论了调试和未来升级的进展。由于 HERA 是指定的平方公里阵列探路仪器,因此我们还展示了许多“案例研究”,这些研究调查了在调试第二阶段系统时看到的系统学,这可能会在未来阵列的设计和操作中使用。常见的病症可能会在不同的仪器上以类似的方式表现出来,一旦确定了污染源,许多污染源就可以得到缓解。
