Abstract
We have used the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST)
to make a blind ultra-deep survey for neutral hydrogen (HI). We present the
complete results from the first of six fields (FUDS0). This observation of 95
hours allowed us to achieve a high sensitivity ($\sim 50~\mu$Jy beam$^{-1}$)
and a high frequency resolution (22.9 kHz) over an area of 0.72 deg$^2$. We
detected 128 galaxies in HI distributed over the redshift range of $0 0.38$, where no unlensed HI
emission has previously been directly detected. Estimates of completeness and
reliability are presented for the catalog. Consistency of continuum and HI flux
estimates with NVSS and AUDS, respectively, confirms the accuracy of
calibration method and data reduction pipeline developed for the full FUDS
survey.
