The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey - I. Survey Description and Preliminary Data Release

T. W. Shimwell, H. J. A. Röttgering, P. N. Best +69

The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) is a deep 120-168 MHz imaging survey that will eventually cover the entire Northern sky. Each of the 3170 pointings will be observed for 8 hr…

LOFAR/H-ATLAS: A deep low-frequency survey of the Herschel-ATLAS North Galactic Pole field

M. J. Hardcastle, G. Gürkan, R. J. van Weeren +25

We present LOFAR High-Band Array (HBA) observations of the Herschel-ATLAS North Galactic Pole survey area. The survey we have carried out, consisting of four pointings covering aro…

Effect of local and large-scale environments on nuclear activity and star formation

M. Argudo-Fernández, S. Shen, J. Sabater +3

Active galactic nuclei (AGN) is one of the main drivers for transition from star-forming disk to passive spheroidal galaxies. However, the role of large-scale environment versus on…

A plethora of diffuse steep spectrum radio sources in Abell 2034 revealed by LOFAR

T. W. Shimwell, J. Luckin, M. Brüggen +28

With Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) observations, we have discovered a diverse assembly of steep spectrum emission that is apparently associated with the intra cluster medium (ICM) of…
