The Apertif Radio Transient System (ARTS): Design, Commissioning, Data Release, and Detection of the first 5 Fast Radio Bursts

Joeri van Leeuwen, Eric Kooistra, Leon Oostrum +49

Fast Radio Bursts must be powered by uniquely energetic emission mechanisms. This requirement has eliminated a number of possible source types, but several remain. Identifying the…

Constraints on the low frequency spectrum of FRB 121102

L. J. M. Houben, L. G. Spitler, S. ter Veen +3

While repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) remain scarce in number, they provide a unique opportunity for follow-up observations that enhance our knowledge of their sources and poten…

The Association of a J-burst with a Solar Jet

D. E. Morosan, P. T. Gallagher, R. A. Fallows +56

Context. The Sun is an active star that produces large-scale energetic events such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections and numerous smaller-scale events such as solar jets.…

Low-radio-frequency eclipses of the redback pulsar J2215+5135 observed in the image plane with LOFAR

J. W. Broderick, R. P. Fender, R. P. Breton +30

The eclipses of certain types of binary millisecond pulsars (i.e. `black widows' and `redbacks') are often studied using high-time-resolution, `beamformed' radio observations. Howe…

A LOFAR census of millisecond pulsars

V. I. Kondratiev, J. P. W. Verbiest, J. W. T. Hessels +29

We report the detection of 48 millisecond pulsars (MSPs) out of 75 observed thus far using the LOFAR in the frequency range 110-188 MHz. We have also detected three MSPs out of nin…

Pulsar polarisation below 200 MHz: Average profiles and propagation effects

A. Noutsos, C. Sobey, V. I. Kondratiev +52

We present the highest-quality polarisation profiles to date of 16 non-recycled pulsars and four millisecond pulsars, observed below 200 MHz with the LOFAR high-band antennas. Base…

LOFAR: The LOw-Frequency ARray

M. P. van Haarlem, M. W. Wise, A. W. Gunst +197

LOFAR, the LOw-Frequency ARray, is a new-generation radio interferometer constructed in the north of the Netherlands and across europe. Utilizing a novel phased-array design, LOFAR…

Calibrating High-Precision Faraday Rotation Measurements for LOFAR and the Next Generation of Low-Frequency Radio Telescopes

C. Sotomayor-Beltran, C. Sobey, J. W. T. Hessels +77

Faraday rotation measurements using the current and next generation of low-frequency radio telescopes will provide a powerful probe of astronomical magnetic fields. However, achiev…

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…
