Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the Universe; in its neutral form, the ground state spin-flip 21-cm transition is in principle observable up to very high redshift, z 150, probing a vast volume of the structure in the Universe. Recently, the 21-cm emission has been proposed as a great tool to measure large-scale structure in the "intensity mapping" regime. Specifically, at redshifts around unity, 21-cm intensity mapping can be used to measure the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) and thus infer properties of dark energy. I will show recent results of 21-cm cross-correlation measurements at redshift of 0.8, a first step towards such a goal, and the potential of a BAO hydrogen survey that may be achievable with the Allen Telescope Array.
