The Lunar Farside Transients and Technology Telescope (LFT3) Mission

David R. DeBoer, Charlie K. Ashe, Owen A. Johnson +12

We present here an overview of the Lunar Farside Transients and Technology Telescope (LFT3) mission to take advantage of the extremely clear radio frequency environment on the luna…

Modelling Radio Frequency Interference on the Lunar Farside

Charlie K. Ashe, Ella J. Marshall, Evan F. Keane +3

Technological progress is a double-edged sword in the world of radio astronomy: improvements in antennas, receivers, and digital backends increase sensitivity, but rapid growth in…

Characterising the response of an International LOFAR Station

Letizia Vincetti, Sai C. Susarla, Owen A. Johnson +7

Phased-array radio interferometers with fixed antennas are a highly scalable design which can achieve a large gain. However they are complex systems and challenging to calibrate. H…

A Square Kilometre Array Pulsar Census

E. F. Keane, V. Graber, L. Levin +7

Most of the pulsar science case with the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) depends on long-term precision timing of a large number of pulsars, as well as their astrometric measurements…

Searching for Extraterrestrial Intelligence with the SKA

Chenoa D. Tremblay, Alex Andersson, Joe Bright +19

The search for technosignatures (also known as the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence or SETI) depends critically on our ability to distinguish artificial signals from the ri…

Pulsar timing solutions for 17 pulsars at 150 MHz from the Irish LOFAR station

D. J. McKenna, E. F. Keane, P. T. Gallagher +1

Pulsar timing is a foundational part of pulsar research to triage the most interesting systems and to characterise properties (rotational or otherwise) of the population of these e…

FRB Searches with the Irish LOFAR Station

D. J. McKenna, E. F. Keane

Here we report null results in the search for radio emission below ~MHz from six known fast radio burst sources. The observations reported here were taken using the Irish LOFA…

A Square Kilometre Array Pulsar Census

E. F. Keane, V. Graber, L. Levin +8

Most of the pulsar science case with the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) depends on long-term precision pulsar timing of a large number of pulsars, as well as astrometric measurements…

GReX: An Instrument Overview and New Upper Limits on the Galactic FRB Population

K. A. Shila, S. Niedbalski, L. Connor +14

We present the instrument design and initial results for the Galactic Radio Explorer (GReX), an all-sky monitor for exceptionally bright transients in the radio sky. This instrumen…

Reading signatures of supermassive binary black holes in pulsar timing array observations

Boris Goncharov, Shubhit Sardana, A. Sesana +10

We find the inferred properties of the putative gravitational wave background in the second data release of the European Pulsar Timing Array to be in better agreement with theoreti…

A Gaussian-processes approach to fitting for time-variable spherical solar wind in pulsar timing data

Iuliana C. Niţu, Michael J. Keith, Caterina Tiburzi +26

Propagation effects are one of the main sources of noise in high-precision pulsar timing. For pulsars below an ecliptic latitude of , the ionised plasma in the solar wind…

A Simultaneous Dual-site Technosignature Search Using International LOFAR Stations

Owen A. Johnson, Vishal Gajjar, Evan F. Keane +19

The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence aims to find evidence of technosignatures, which can point toward the possible existence of technologically advanced extraterrestrial l…

udpPacketManager: An International LOFAR Station Data (Pre-)Processor

David J. McKenna, Evan F. Keane, Peter T. Gallagher +1

International LOFAR stations are powerful radio telescopes, however they are delivered without the tooling necessary to convert their raw data stream into standard data formats tha…

LOFAR 144-MHz follow-up observations of GW170817

J. W. Broderick, T. W. Shimwell, K. Gourdji +66

We present low-radio-frequency follow-up observations of AT 2017gfo, the electromagnetic counterpart of GW170817, which was the first binary neutron star merger to be detected by A…
