The Apertif science verification campaign - Characteristics of polarised radio sources
B. Adebahr, A. Berger, E. A. K. Adams +24
We analyse five early science datasets from the APERture Tile in Focus (Apertif) phased array feed system to verify the polarisation capabilities of Apertif in view of future large…
Dual-frequency single-pulse study of PSR B0950+08
A. V. Bilous, J. M. Griessmeier, T. Pennucci +33
PSR B0950+08 is a bright non-recycled pulsar whose single-pulse fluence variability is reportedly large. Based on observations at two widely separated frequencies, 55 MHz (NenuFAR)…
A search for radio emission from double-neutron star merger GW190425 using Apertif
Olivér Boersma, Joeri van Leeuwen, Elizabeth A. K. Adams +26
Detection of the electromagnetic emission from coalescing binary neutron stars (BNS) is important for understanding the merger and afterglow. We present a search for a radio counte…
Apertif view of the OH Megamaser IRAS 10597+5926: OH 18 cm satellite lines in wide-area HI surveys
Kelley M. Hess, H. Roberts, H. Dénes +26
We present the serendipitous detection of the two main OH maser lines at 1667 and 1665 MHz associated with IRAS 10597+5926 at z = 0.19612 in the untargeted Apertif Wide-area Extrag…
Extreme intra-hour variability of the radio source J1402+5347 discovered with Apertif
T. A. Oosterloo, H. K. Vedantham, A. M. Kutkin +27
The propagation of radio waves from distant compact radio sources through turbulent interstellar plasma in our Galaxy causes these sources to twinkle, a phenomenon called interstel…
A bright, high rotation-measure FRB that skewers the M33 halo
Liam Connor, Joeri van Leeuwen, L. C. Oostrum +37
We report the detection of a bright fast radio burst, FRB\,191108, with Apertif on the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT). The interferometer allows us to localise the FRB…
Repeating fast radio bursts with WSRT/Apertif
L. C. Oostrum, Y. Maan, J. van Leeuwen +40
Repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) present excellent opportunities to identify FRB progenitors and host environments, as well as decipher the underlying emission mechanism. Detaile…
LBCS: the LOFAR Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey
N. Jackson, A. Tagore, A. Deller +76
(abridged). We outline LBCS (the LOFAR Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey), whose aim is to identify sources suitable for calibrating the highest-resolution observations made with the…
Detecting cosmic rays with the LOFAR radio telescope
P. Schellart, A. Nelles, S. Buitink +102
The low frequency array (LOFAR), is the first radio telescope designed with the capability to measure radio emission from cosmic-ray induced air showers in parallel with interferom…
LOFAR: The LOw-Frequency ARray
M. P. van Haarlem, M. W. Wise, A. W. Gunst +197
LOFAR, the LOw-Frequency ARray, is a new-generation radio interferometer constructed in the north of the Netherlands and across europe. Utilizing a novel phased-array design, LOFAR…
Observing pulsars and fast transients with LOFAR
B. W. Stappers, J. W. T. Hessels, A. Alexov +91
Low frequency radio waves, while challenging to observe, are a rich source of information about pulsars. The LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) is a new radio interferometer operating in…
