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…
Tracing low-mass galaxy clusters with radio relics: the discovery of Abell 3527-bis
F. de Gasperin, H. T. Intema, J. Ridl +6
Galaxy clusters undergo mergers that can generate extended radio sources called radio relics. Radio relics are the consequence of merger-induced shocks that propagate in the intra…
Pulsar Candidates Toward Fermi Unassociated Sources
D. A. Frail, K. P. Mooley, P. Jagannathan +1
We report on a search for steep spectrum radio sources within the 95% confidence error ellipses of the Fermi unassociated sources from the Large Array Telescope (LAT). Using existi…
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, VLA, and Chandra observations of the Toothbrush galaxy cluster
R. J. van Weeren, G. Brunetti, M. Brüggen +39
We present deep LOFAR observations between 120-181 MHz of the "Toothbrush" (RX J0603.3+4214), a cluster that contains one of the brightest radio relic sources known. Our LOFAR obse…
LOFAR facet calibration
R. J. van Weeren, W. L. Williams, M. J. Hardcastle +39
LOFAR, the Low-Frequency Array, is a powerful new radio telescope operating between 10 and 240 MHz. LOFAR allows detailed sensitive high-resolution studies of the low-frequency rad…
