Chromatic periodic activity down to 120 MHz in a Fast Radio Burst
Inés Pastor-Marazuela, Liam Connor, Joeri van Leeuwen +34
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are extragalactic astrophysical transients whose brightness requires emitters that are highly energetic, yet compact enough to produce the short, milliseco…
Cassiopeia A, Cygnus A, Taurus A, and Virgo A at ultra-low radio frequencies
F. de Gasperin, J. Vink, J. P. McKean +49
The four persistent radio sources in the northern sky with the highest flux density at metre wavelengths are Cassiopeia A, Cygnus A, Taurus A, and Virgo A; collectively they are ca…
The LOFAR Tied-Array All-Sky Survey (LOTAAS): Survey overview and initial pulsar discoveries
S. Sanidas, S. Cooper, C. G. Bassa +20
We present an overview of the LOFAR Tied-Array All-Sky Survey (LOTAAS) for radio pulsars and fast transients. The survey uses the high-band antennas of the LOFAR Superterp, the den…
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…
LOFAR MSSS: Detection of a low-frequency radio transient in 400 hrs of monitoring of the North Celestial Pole
A. J. Stewart, R. P. Fender, J. W. Broderick +99
We present the results of a four-month campaign searching for low-frequency radio transients near the North Celestial Pole with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR), as part of the Mult…
Probing Atmospheric Electric Fields in Thunderstorms through Radio Emission from Cosmic-Ray-Induced Air Showers
P. Schellart, T. N. G. Trinh, S. Buitink +71
We present measurements of radio emission from cosmic ray air showers that took place during thunderstorms. The intensity and polarization patterns of these air showers are radical…
The shape of the radio wavefront of extensive air showers as measured with LOFAR
A. Corstanje, P. Schellart, A. Nelles +78
Extensive air showers, induced by high energy cosmic rays impinging on the Earth's atmosphere, produce radio emission that is measured with the LOFAR radio telescope. As the emissi…
Synchronous X-ray and Radio Mode Switches: a Rapid Global Transformation of the Pulsar Magnetosphere
W. Hermsen, J. W. T. Hessels, L. Kuiper +8
Pulsars emit low-frequency radio waves through to high-energy gamma-rays that are generated anywhere from the surface out to the edges of the magnetosphere. Detecting correlated mo…
Wide-band Simultaneous Observations of Pulsars: Disentangling Dispersion Measure and Profile Variations
T. E. Hassall, B. W. Stappers, J. W. T. Hessels +91
Dispersion in the interstellar medium is a well known phenomenon that follows a simple relationship, which has been used to predict the time delay of dispersed radio pulses since t…
