Polarisation and Faraday rotation measure imaging at metre wavelengths with sub-arcsecond resolution: a foundational calibration strategy
R. J. van Weeren, J. M. G. H. J. de Jong, X. K Le Saux +12
Low-frequency radio polarimetric observations provide a powerful probe of magnetic fields in astrophysical sources and the intervening medium, as well as magnetospheric emission fr…
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey: VII. Third Data Release
T. W. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle, C. Tasse +99
We present the third data release of the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS-DR3). The survey images cover 88% of the northern sky and were created from 12,950 hrs of data (18.6 PB)…
The low-frequency flattening of the radio spectrum of giant HII regions in M 101
L. GajoviÄ, V. Heesen, M. Brüggen +10
In galaxies, the flattening of the spectrum at low radio frequencies below 300 MHz has been the subject of some debate. A turnover at low frequencies could be caused by multiple ph…
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey: Deep Fields Data Release 2. I. The ELAIS-N1 field
T. W. Shimwell, C. L. Hale, P. N. Best +29
We present the final 6'' resolution data release of the ELAIS-N1 field from the LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR) Two-metre Sky Survey Deep Fields project (LoTSS Deep). The 144MHz images…
LOFAR Deep Fields: Probing the sub-mJy regime of polarized extragalactic sources in ELAIS-N1. II. Analysis
S. Piras, C. Horellou, J. Conway +7
Deep polarization surveys at low radio frequencies are key to cosmic magnetism studies: Larger catalogs of polarized extragalactic sources and increased precision on Faraday rotati…
On the nature of LOFAR RMs and new constraints on magnetic fields in cosmic filaments and on magnetogenesis scenarios
E. Carretti, F. Vazza, S. P. O'Sullivan +6
The measurement of magnetic fields in cosmic web filaments can be used to reveal the magnetogenesis of the Universe. In previous work, we produced first estimates of the field stre…
