LOFAR Observations of Swift J1644+57 and Implications for Short-Duration Transients

Y. Cendes, R. A. M. J. Wijers, J. D. Swinbank +25

Aims: We have analyzed low frequency radio data of tidal disruption event (TDE) Swift J1644+57 to search for a counterpart. We consider how brief transient signals (on the order of…

The LOFAR long baseline snapshot calibrator survey

J. Moldón, A. T. Deller, O. Wucknitz +82

Aims. An efficient means of locating calibrator sources for International LOFAR is developed and used to determine the average density of usable calibrator sources on the sky for s…

New methods to constrain the radio transient rate: results from a survey of four fields with LOFAR

D. Carbone, A. J. van der Horst, R. A. M. J. Wijers +23

We report on the results of a search for radio transients between 115 and 190\,MHz with the LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR). Four fields have been monitored with cadences between 15 mi…

LOFAR low-band antenna observations of the 3C295 and Bootes fields: source counts and ultra-steep spectrum sources

R. J. van Weeren, W. L. Williams, C. Tasse +98

We present LOFAR Low Band observations of the Bootes and 3C295 fields. Our images made at 34, 46, and 62 MHz reach noise levels of 12, 8, and 5 mJy beam, making them the dee…

LOFAR observations of PSR B0943+10: profile evolution and discovery of a systematically changing profile delay in Bright mode

A. Bilous, J. Hessels, V. Kondratiev +10

We present broadband, low-frequency (25-80 MHz and 110-190 MHz) LOFAR observations of PSR B0943+10, with the goal of better illuminating the nature of its enigmatic mode-switching…

The LOFAR Pilot Surveys for Pulsars and Fast Radio Transients

Thijs Coenen, Joeri van Leeuwen, Jason W. T. Hessels +87

We have conducted two pilot surveys for radio pulsars and fast transients with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) around 140 MHz and here report on the first low-frequency fast-radio…
