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…

Probing Ionospheric Structures using the LOFAR radio telescope

M. Mevius, S. van der Tol, V. N. Pandey +24

LOFAR is the LOw Frequency Radio interferometer ARray located at mid-latitude (). Here, we present results on ionospheric structures derived from 29 LOFAR nighttim…

Fine tuning consensus optimization for distributed radio interferometric calibration

Sarod Yatawatta

We recently proposed the use of consensus optimization as a viable and effective way to improve the quality of calibration of radio interferometric data. We showed that it is possi…

Systematic biases in low frequency radio interferometric data due to calibration: the LOFAR EoR case

Ajinkya H. Patil, Sarod Yatawatta, Saleem Zaroubi +8

The redshifted 21 cm line of neutral hydrogen is a promising probe of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). However, its detection requires a thorough understanding and control of the s…

A large light-mass component of cosmic rays at 10^{17} - 10^{17.5} eV from radio observations

S. Buitink, A. Corstanje, H. Falcke +101

Cosmic rays are the highest energy particles found in nature. Measurements of the mass composition of cosmic rays between 10^{17} eV and 10^{18} eV are essential to understand whet…

Polarization leakage in epoch of reionization windows: II. Primary beam model and direction dependent calibration

K. M. B. Asad, L. V. E. Koopmans, V. Jelić +11

Leakage of diffuse polarized emission into Stokes I caused by the polarized primary beam of the instrument might mimic the spectral structure of the 21-cm signal coming from the ep…
