Diffusion of cosmic-ray electrons in M 51 observed with LOFAR at 54 MHz
V. Heesen, F. de Gasperin, S. Schulz +8
Context. The details of cosmic-ray transport have a strong impact on galaxy evolution. The peak of the cosmic-ray energy distribution is observable in the radio continuum using the…
CHANG-ES XXVI: Insights into cosmic-ray transport from radio halos in edge-on galaxies
M. Stein, V. Heesen, R. -J. Dettmar +13
Galactic winds play a key role in regulating the evolution of galaxies over cosmic time. In recent years, the role of cosmic rays (CR) in the formation of the galactic wind has inc…
Nearby galaxies in the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey II. The magnetic field-gas relation
V. Heesen, T. -L. Klocke, M. Brüggen +8
Context. Magnetic fields are key to understand galaxy evolution, regulating stellar feedback and star formation in galaxies. Aims. We probe the origin of magnetic fields in late-ty…
Nearby galaxies in LoTSS-DR2: insights into the non-linearity of the radio-SFR relation
V. Heesen, M. Staffehl, A. Basu +24
Context. Cosmic rays and magnetic fields are key ingredients in galaxy evolution, regulating both stellar feedback and star formation. Their properties can be studied with low-freq…
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey -- V. Second data release
T. W. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle, C. Tasse +103
In this data release from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) we present 120-168MHz images covering 27% of the northern sky. Our coverage is split into two regions centred at ap…
