HI rotation curves and mass-size relation for 568 galaxies from the Apertif Wide-area Extragalactic Survey

Konstantin Haubner, Federico Lelli, Enrico Di Teodoro +13

The extended HI rotation curves of galaxies are one of the most powerful tools for studying galaxy evolution and for testing different dark matter and modified gravity models. Howe…

Spectral indices in active galactic nuclei as seen by Apertif and LOFAR

A. M. Kutkin, R. Morganti, T. A. Oosterloo +5

We present two new radio continuum images obtained with Apertif at 1.4 GHz. The images, produced with a direction-dependent calibration pipeline, cover 136 square degrees of the Lo…

Seeing the forest and the trees: a radio investigation of the ULIRG Mrk 273

Pranav Kukreti, Raffaella Morganti, Marco Bondi +19

Galaxy mergers have been observed to trigger nuclear activity by feeding gas to the central supermassive black hole. One such class of objects are Ultra Luminous InfraRed Galaxies…

The Apertif science verification campaign - Characteristics of polarised radio sources

B. Adebahr, A. Berger, E. A. K. Adams +24

We analyse five early science datasets from the APERture Tile in Focus (Apertif) phased array feed system to verify the polarisation capabilities of Apertif in view of future large…

LOFAR imaging of Cygnus A -- Direct detection of a turnover in the hotspot radio spectra

J. P. McKean, L. E. H. Godfrey, S. Vegetti +75

The low-frequency radio spectra of the hotspots within powerful radio galaxies can provide valuable information about the physical processes operating at the site of the jet termin…

Apertif view of the OH Megamaser IRAS 10597+5926: OH 18 cm satellite lines in wide-area HI surveys

Kelley M. Hess, H. Roberts, H. Dénes +26

We present the serendipitous detection of the two main OH maser lines at 1667 and 1665 MHz associated with IRAS 10597+5926 at z = 0.19612 in the untargeted Apertif Wide-area Extrag…
