A search for long-timescale, low-frequency radio transients

Tara Murphy, David L. Kaplan, Steve Croft +30

We present a search for transient and highly variable sources at low radio frequencies (150-200 MHz) that explores long timescales of 1-3 years. We conducted this search by compari…

Mpc-scale diffuse radio emission in two massive cool-core clusters of galaxies

Martin W. Sommer, Kaustuv Basu, Huib Intema +4

Radio halos are diffuse synchrotron sources on scales of ~1 Mpc that are found in merging clusters of galaxies, and are believed to be powered by electrons re-accelerated by the me…

LBCS: the LOFAR Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey

N. Jackson, A. Tagore, A. Deller +76

(abridged). We outline LBCS (the LOFAR Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey), whose aim is to identify sources suitable for calibrating the highest-resolution observations made with the…

The MHz-peaked radio spectrum of the unusual gamma-ray source PMN J1603-4904

C. Müller, P. R. Burd, R. Schulz +6

Context. The majority of bright extragalactic gamma-ray sources are blazars. Only a few radio galaxies have been detected by Fermi/LAT. Recently, the GHz-peaked spectrum source PKS…

ATCA observations of the MACS-Planck Radio Halo Cluster Project - I. New detection of a radio halo in PLCK G285.0-23.7

Gerardo Martinez Aviles, Chiara Ferrari, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt +12

We investigate the possible presence of diffuse radio emission in the intermediate redshift, massive cluster PLCK G285.0-23.7 (z=0.39, M_500 = 8.39 x 10^(14) M_Sun). Our 16cm-band…

(Sub)millimetre interferometric imaging of a sample of COSMOS/AzTEC submillimetre galaxies IV. Physical properties derived from spectral energy distributions

Oskari Miettinen, Ivan Delvecchio, Vernesa Smolčić +10

We characterise the physical nature of a 1.1 mm-selected, flux-limited, and interferometrically followed up sample of SMGs in COSMOS. We used the MAGPHYS code to fit the multiwavel…
