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…

Extreme intra-hour variability of the radio source J1402+5347 discovered with Apertif

T. A. Oosterloo, H. K. Vedantham, A. M. Kutkin +27

The propagation of radio waves from distant compact radio sources through turbulent interstellar plasma in our Galaxy causes these sources to twinkle, a phenomenon called interstel…

Mid Frequency Aperture Array Architectural Design Document

A. W. Gunst, A. J. Faulkner, S. Wijnholds +3

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is the next generation radio telescope. Aperture Arrays (AA) are considered for SKA-2 for frequencies up to 1.4 GHz (SKA-1 uses AAs up to 350 MHz).…

A bright, high rotation-measure FRB that skewers the M33 halo

Liam Connor, Joeri van Leeuwen, L. C. Oostrum +37

We report the detection of a bright fast radio burst, FRB\,191108, with Apertif on the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT). The interferometer allows us to localise the FRB…

Repeating fast radio bursts with WSRT/Apertif

L. C. Oostrum, Y. Maan, J. van Leeuwen +40

Repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) present excellent opportunities to identify FRB progenitors and host environments, as well as decipher the underlying emission mechanism. Detaile…
