Polarization leakage in Epoch of Reionization windows: I. LOFAR observations of the 3C196 field
K. M. B. Asad, L. V. E. Koopmans, V. Jelić +25
Detection of the 21-cm signal coming from the epoch of reionization (EoR) is challenging especially because, even after removing the foregrounds, the residual Stokes maps conta…
First LOFAR results on galaxy clusters
C. Ferrari, I. van Bemmel, A. Bonafede +21
Deep radio observations of galaxy clusters have revealed the existence of diffuse radio sources related to the presence of relativistic electrons and weak magnetic fields in the in…
First LOFAR observations at very low frequencies of cluster-scale non-thermal emission: the case of Abell 2256
R. J. van Weeren, H. J. A. Rottgering, D. A. Rafferty +79
Abell 2256 is one of the best known examples of a galaxy cluster hosting large-scale diffuse radio emission that is unrelated to individual galaxies. It contains both a giant radio…
LOFAR: Recent imaging results & future prospects
George Heald, Michael R. Bell, Andreas Horneffer +27
The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) is under construction in the Netherlands and in several surrounding European countries. In this contribution, we describe the layout and design of t…
LOFAR: Early imaging results from commissioning for Cygnus A
John McKean, Louise Ker, Reinout J. van Weeren +19
The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) will operate between 10 and 250 MHz, and will observe the low frequency Universe to an unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution. The constru…
