O. M. Smirnov, A. G. de Bruyn
Direction-dependent effects (DDEs) represent a major challenge both for calibration of new radio telescopes, and for advancing the state of the art of existing ones. Various approa…
Early radio and X-ray observations of the youngest nearby type Ia supernova PTF11kly (SN 2011fe)
Assaf Horesh, S. R. Kulkarni, Derek B. Fox +20
On August 24 (UT) the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) discovered PTF11kly (SN 2011fe), the youngest and most nearby type Ia supernova (SN Ia) in decades. We followed this event up…
Observing pulsars and fast transients with LOFAR
B. W. Stappers, J. W. T. Hessels, A. Alexov +91
Low frequency radio waves, while challenging to observe, are a rich source of information about pulsars. The LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) is a new radio interferometer operating in…
