MIGHTEE Polarization Early Science Fields: The Deep Polarized Sky

A. R. Taylor, S. Sekhar, L. Heino +6

The MeerKAT International GigaHertz Tiered Extragalactic Exploration (MIGHTEE) is one of the MeerKAT large survey projects, designed to pathfind SKA key science. MIGHTEE is underta…

Probing magnetic fields in the circumgalactic medium using polarization data from MIGHTEE

K. Böckmann, M. Brüggen, V. Heesen +10

The detection and study of magnetic fields surrounding galaxies is important to understand galaxy evolution since magnetic fields are tracers for dynamical processes in the circumg…

The Faraday Rotation Measure Grid of the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey: Data Release 2

S. P. O'Sullivan, T. W. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle +24

A Faraday rotation measure (RM) catalogue, or RM Grid, is a valuable resource for the study of cosmic magnetism. Using the second data release (DR2) from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Su…

Magnetic field strength in cosmic web filaments

E. Carretti, V. Vacca, S. P. O'Sullivan +8

We used the Rotation Measure (RM) catalogue derived from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey Data Release 2 (LoTSS DR2) at 144-MHz to measure the evolution with redshift of the extragal…

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…

Modelling the cosmic ray electron propagation in M 51

D. D. Mulcahy, A. Fletcher, R. Beck +2

Cosmic ray electrons (CREs) are a crucial part of the ISM and are observed via synchrotron emission. While much modelling has been carried out on the CRE distribution and propagati…

LOFAR MSSS: Detection of a low-frequency radio transient in 400 hrs of monitoring of the North Celestial Pole

A. J. Stewart, R. P. Fender, J. W. Broderick +99

We present the results of a four-month campaign searching for low-frequency radio transients near the North Celestial Pole with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR), as part of the Mult…

Measuring a Cherenkov ring in the radio emission from air showers at 110-190 MHz with LOFAR

A. Nelles, P. Schellart, S. Buitink +66

Measuring radio emission from air showers offers a novel way to determine properties of the primary cosmic rays such as their mass and energy. Theory predicts that relativistic tim…

The LOFAR long baseline snapshot calibrator survey

J. Moldón, A. T. Deller, O. Wucknitz +82

Aims. An efficient means of locating calibrator sources for International LOFAR is developed and used to determine the average density of usable calibrator sources on the sky for s…

LOFAR tied-array imaging of Type III solar radio bursts

D. E. Morosan, P. T. Gallagher, P. Zucca +82

The Sun is an active source of radio emission which is often associated with energetic phenomena such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). At low radio frequencies (<…

The shape of the radio wavefront of extensive air showers as measured with LOFAR

A. Corstanje, P. Schellart, A. Nelles +78

Extensive air showers, induced by high energy cosmic rays impinging on the Earth's atmosphere, produce radio emission that is measured with the LOFAR radio telescope. As the emissi…

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…

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…
