LOFAR MSSS: Detection of a low-frequency radio transient in 400 hrs of monitoring of the North Celestial Pole

A. J. Stewart, R. P. Fender, J. W. Broderick +99

We present the results of a four-month campaign searching for low-frequency radio transients near the North Celestial Pole with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR), as part of the Mult…

A LOFAR census of non-recycled pulsars: average profiles, dispersion measures, flux densities, and spectra

A. Bilous, V. Kondratiev, M. Kramer +24

We present first results from a LOFAR census of non-recycled pulsars. The census includes almost all such pulsars known (194 sources) at declinations and Galac…

Wide-Band, Low-Frequency Pulse Profiles of 100 Radio Pulsars with LOFAR

M. Pilia, J. W. T. Hessels, B. W. Stappers +84

LOFAR offers the unique capability of observing pulsars across the 10-240 MHz frequency range with a fractional bandwidth of roughly 50%. This spectral range is well-suited for stu…

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…

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…

Limits on Fast Radio Bursts at 145 MHz with ARTEMIS, a real-time software backend

A. Karastergiou, J. Chennamangalam, W. Armour +22

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), are millisecond radio signals that exhibit dispersion larger than what the Galactic electron density can account for. We have conducted a 1446 hour survey…
