Description

I briefly review the instrument specifications that would be necessary to support a 21cm intensity mapping science case with ARGOS. The upshot is that a dense core would be needed, either with lower frequency receivers on 6m dishes, or the proposed L-band receivers on 3m dishes. Control of systematics such as mutual coupling is paramount, and basic pointing capability would be desirable to increase the accessible survey area.
