ThunderKAT: The MeerKAT Large Survey Project for Image-Plane Radio Transients
R. Fender, P. A. Woudt, R. Armstrong +59
ThunderKAT is the image-plane transients programme for MeerKAT. The goal as outlined in 2010, and still today, is to find, identify and understand high-energy astrophysical process…
Lucky Imaging of transiting planet host stars with LuckyCam
F. Faedi, T. Staley, Y. Gomez Maqueo Chew +7
We obtained high-resolution, high-contrast optical imaging in the SDSS band with the LuckyCam camera mounted on the 2.56m Nordic Optical Telescope, to search for faint stellar…
A prompt radio transient associated with a gamma-ray superflare from the young M dwarf binary DG CVn
R. P. Fender, G. E. Anderson, R. Osten +4
On 2014 April 23, the Swift satellite detected a gamma-ray superflare from the nearby star system DG CVn. This system comprises a M-dwarf binary with extreme properties: it is very…
Pulsar polarisation below 200 MHz: Average profiles and propagation effects
A. Noutsos, C. Sobey, V. I. Kondratiev +52
We present the highest-quality polarisation profiles to date of 16 non-recycled pulsars and four millisecond pulsars, observed below 200 MHz with the LOFAR high-band antennas. Base…
