Calibrating the relation of low-frequency radio continuum to star formation rate at 1 kpc scale with LOFAR

V. Heesen, E. Buie, C. J. Huff +16

Radio continuum (RC) emission in galaxies allows us to measure star formation rates (SFRs) unaffected by extinction due to dust, of which the low-frequency part is uncontaminated f…

The environments of radio-loud AGN from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS)

J. H. Croston, M. J. Hardcastle, B. Mingo +13

An understanding of the relationship between radio-loud active galaxies and their large-scale environments is essential for realistic modelling of radio-galaxy evolution and enviro…

Radio-loud AGN in the first LoTSS data release: The lifetimes and environmental impact of jet-driven sources

M. J. Hardcastle, W. L. Williams, P. N. Best +20

We constructed a sample of 23,344 radio-loud active galactic nuclei (RLAGN) from the catalogue derived from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) survey of the HETDEX Spring field…

The origin of radio emission in broad absorption line quasars: Results from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey

L. K. Morabito, J. H. Matthews, P. N. Best +14

We present a study of the low-frequency radio properties of broad absorption line quasars (BALQSOs) from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky-Survey Data Release 1 (LDR1). The value-added LDR1…

The LoTSS view of radio AGN in the local Universe. The most massive galaxies are always switched on

J. Sabater, P. N. Best, M. J. Hardcastle +18

This paper presents a study of the local radio source population, by cross-comparing the data from the first data release (DR1) of the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) with the S…

The Far-Infrared Radio Correlation at low radio frequency with LOFAR/H-ATLAS

S. C. Read, D. J. B. Smith, G. Gürkan +14

The radio and far-infrared luminosities of star-forming galaxies are tightly correlated over several orders of magnitude; this is known as the far-infrared radio correlation (FIRC)…

Deep LOFAR 150 MHz imaging of the Boötes field: Unveiling the faint low-frequency sky

E. Retana-Montenegro, H. J. A. Röttgering, T. W. Shimwell +5

We have conducted a deep survey (with a central rms of ) with the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) at 120-168 MHz of the Boötes field, with an angular resolution of $3.9…

VIS3COS: I. survey overview and the role of environment and stellar mass on star formation

Ana Paulino-Afonso, David Sobral, Behnam Darvish +5

We present the VIMOS Spectroscopic Survey of a Supercluster in the COSMOS field (VIS3COS) at z~0.84. We use VIMOS high-resolution spectra (GG475 filter) to spectroscopically select…

The nature of luminous Lyman-alpha emitters at z~2-3: maximal dust-poor starbursts and highly ionising AGN

David Sobral, Jorryt Matthee, Behnam Darvish +8

Deep narrow-band surveys have revealed a large population of faint Lyman-alpha (Lya) emitters (LAEs) in the distant Universe, but relatively little is known about the most luminous…

Polarized point sources in the LOFAR Two-meter Sky Survey: A preliminary catalog

C. L. Van Eck, M. Haverkorn, M. I. R. Alves +22

The polarization properties of radio sources at very low frequencies (<200 MHz) have not been widely measured, but the new generation of low-frequency radio telescopes, including t…

LOFAR/H-ATLAS: The low-frequency radio luminosity - star-formation rate relation

Gulay Gurkan, Martin J. Hardcastle, Dan J. B. Smith +11

Radio emission is a key indicator of star-formation activity in galaxies, but the radio luminosity-star formation relation has to date been studied almost exclusively at frequencie…
