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…

Studying Galactic interstellar turbulence through fluctuations in synchrotron emission: First LOFAR Galactic foreground detection

M. Iacobelli, M. Haverkorn, E. Orrú +85

The characteristic outer scale of turbulence and the ratio of the random to ordered components of the magnetic field are key parameters to characterise magnetic turbulence in the i…

The brightness and spatial distributions of terrestrial radio sources

A. R. Offringa, A. G. de Bruyn, S. Zaroubi +75

Faint undetected sources of radio-frequency interference (RFI) might become visible in long radio observations when they are consistently present over time. Thereby, they might obs…

Synchronous X-ray and Radio Mode Switches: a Rapid Global Transformation of the Pulsar Magnetosphere

W. Hermsen, J. W. T. Hessels, L. Kuiper +8

Pulsars emit low-frequency radio waves through to high-energy gamma-rays that are generated anywhere from the surface out to the edges of the magnetosphere. Detecting correlated mo…

Initial deep LOFAR observations of Epoch of Reionization windows: I. The North Celestial Pole

S. Yatawatta, A. G. de Bruyn, M. A. Brentjens +86

The aim of the LOFAR Epoch of Reionization (EoR) project is to detect the spectral fluctuations of the redshifted HI 21cm signal. This signal is weaker by several orders of magnitu…
