Wide-field LOFAR imaging of the field around the double-double radio galaxy B1834+620: A fresh view on a restarted AGN and doubeltjes
E. Orrú, S. van Velzen, R. F. Pizzo +8
The existence of double-double radio galaxies (DDRGs) is evidence for recurrent jet activity in AGN, as expected from standard accretion models. A detailed study of these rare sour…
Linear polarization structures in LOFAR observations of the interstellar medium in the 3C196 field
V. Jelić, A. G. de Bruyn, V. N. Pandey +21
This study aims to characterize linear polarization structures in LOFAR observations of the interstellar medium (ISM) in the 3C196 field, one of the primary fields of the LOFAR-Epo…
The LOFAR Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS) I. Survey description and first results
G. H. Heald, R. F. Pizzo, E. Orrú +147
We present the Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS), the first northern-sky LOFAR imaging survey. In this introductory paper, we first describe in detail the motivation and de…
Galactic interstellar filaments as probed by LOFAR and Planck
S. Zaroubi, V. Jelić, A. G. de Bruyn +13
Recent Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) observations at 115-175 MHz of a field at medium Galactic latitudes (centered at the bright quasar 3C196) have shown striking filamentary structu…
The Cosmic Dawn and Epoch of Reionization with the Square Kilometre Array
L. V. E. Koopmans, J. Pritchard, G. Mellema +42
Concerted effort is currently ongoing to open up the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) (15-6) for studies with IR and radio telescopes. Whereas IR detections have been made of sou…
Simulating the 21cm forest detectable with LOFAR and SKA in the spectra of high-z GRBs
B. Ciardi, S. Inoue, F. B. Abdalla +26
We investigate the feasibility of detecting 21cm absorption features in the afterglow spectra of high redshift long Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs). This is done employing simulations of c…
Polarization leakage in Epoch of Reionization windows: I. LOFAR observations of the 3C196 field
K. M. B. Asad, L. V. E. Koopmans, V. Jelić +25
Detection of the 21-cm signal coming from the epoch of reionization (EoR) is challenging especially because, even after removing the foregrounds, the residual Stokes maps conta…
