The MeerKAT Galaxy Cluster Legacy Survey I. Survey Overview and Highlights

K. Knowles, W. D. Cotton, L. Rudnick +148

MeerKAT's large number of antennas, spanning 8 km with a densely packed 1 km core, create a powerful instrument for wide-area surveys, with high sensitivity over a wide range of an…

Inflation of 430-parsec bipolar radio bubbles in the Galactic Centre by an energetic event

I. Heywood, F. Camilo, W. D. Cotton +96

The Galactic Centre contains a supermassive black hole with a mass of 4 million suns within an environment that differs markedly from that of the Galactic disk. While the black hol…

Revival of the magnetar PSR J1622-4950: observations with MeerKAT, Parkes, XMM-Newton, Swift, Chandra, and NuSTAR

F. Camilo, P. Scholz, M. Serylak +205

New radio (MeerKAT and Parkes) and X-ray (XMM-Newton, Swift, Chandra, and NuSTAR) observations of PSR J1622-4950 indicate that the magnetar, in a quiescent state since at least ear…

Radio Frequency Interference Mitigation at the WSRT

P. A. Fridman, W. A. Baan, R. P. Millenaar

The sensitivity of radio astronomical stations is often limited by man-made radio frequency interference (RFI) due to a variety of terrestrial activities. An RFI mitigation subsyst…
