The hydrogen follows fluctuations in the underlying cosmic density field, with regions of higher density giving rise to a higher intensity of emission. Intensity fluctuations can therefore be used to reconstruct the <a href="Matter_power_spectrum" title="Matter power spectrum">power spectrum of matter fluctuations</a>. The frequency of the emission line is <a href="Redshift" title="Redshift">redshifted</a> by the expansion of the Universe, so by using radio receivers that cover a wide frequency band, one can detect this signal as a function of redshift, and thus cosmic time. This is similar in principle to a <a href="Redshift_survey" title="Redshift survey">galaxy redshift survey</a>, with the important distinction that galaxies need to be individually detected and measured, making intensity mapping a considerably faster method.<sup id="cite_ref-Bull_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Bull-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>At late times, after the Universe has <a href="Reionization" title="Reionization">reionized</a>, most of the remaining neutral hydrogen is stored in dense gas clouds called <a href="Damped_Lyman-alpha_system" title="Damped Lyman-alpha system">damped Lyman-alpha systems</a>, where it is protected from <a href="Extragalactic_background_light" title="Extragalactic background light">ionizing UV radiation</a>. These are predominantly hosted in galaxies, so the neutral hydrogen signal is effectively a tracer of the galaxy distribution.
</p><p>As with galaxy redshift surveys, intensity mapping observations can be used to measure the geometry and expansion rate of the Universe (and therefore the properties of <a href="Dark_energy" title="Dark energy">dark energy</a><sup id="cite_ref-Bull_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Bull-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>) by using the <a href="Baryon_Acoustic_Oscillations" class="mw-redirect" title="Baryon Acoustic Oscillations">baryon acoustic oscillation</a> feature in the matter power spectrum as a <a href="Standard_ruler" title="Standard ruler">standard ruler</a>.

Both of these features are found at large scales of tens to hundreds of <a href="Megaparsec" class="mw-redirect" title="Megaparsec">megaparsecs</a>, which is why low angular resolution (unresolved) maps of neutral hydrogen are sufficient to detect them. This should be compared with the resolution of a redshift survey, which must detect individual galaxies that are typically only tens of kiloparsecs across.
</p><p>Because intensity mapping surveys can be carried out much faster than conventional optical redshift surveys, it is possible to map-out significantly larger volumes of the Universe. As such, intensity mapping has been proposed as a way of measuring phenomena on extremely large scales, including <a href="Non-Gaussianity" title="Non-Gaussianity">primordial non-Gaussianity</a> from <a href="Inflation_(cosmology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Inflation (cosmology)">inflation</a><sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and general relativistic corrections to the <a href="Correlation_function_(astronomy)" title="Correlation function (astronomy)">matter correlation function</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
