Communication protocol for a satellite-swarm interferometer

Oliver Nagy, Manish Pandey, Georgios Exarchakos +2

Orbiting low frequency antennas for radio astronomy (OLFAR) that capture cosmic signals in the frequency range below 30MHz could provide valuable insights on our Universe. These wi…

Imaging the Southern Sky at 159MHz using Spherical Harmonics with the Engineering Development Array 2

Michael A. Kriele, Randall B. Wayth, Mark J. Bentum +2

One of the major priorities of international radio astronomy is to study the early universe through the detection of the 21 cm HI line from the epoch of reionisation (EoR). Due to…

LOFAR imaging of Cygnus A -- Direct detection of a turnover in the hotspot radio spectra

J. P. McKean, L. E. H. Godfrey, S. Vegetti +75

The low-frequency radio spectra of the hotspots within powerful radio galaxies can provide valuable information about the physical processes operating at the site of the jet termin…

LOFAR 144-MHz follow-up observations of GW170817

J. W. Broderick, T. W. Shimwell, K. Gourdji +66

We present low-radio-frequency follow-up observations of AT 2017gfo, the electromagnetic counterpart of GW170817, which was the first binary neutron star merger to be detected by A…

A LOFAR Observation of Ionospheric Scintillation from Two Simultaneous Travelling Ionospheric Disturbances

Richard A. Fallows, Biagio Forte, Ivan Astin +55

This paper presents the results from one of the first observations of ionospheric scintillation taken using the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR). The observation was of the strong natur…

Cassiopeia A, Cygnus A, Taurus A, and Virgo A at ultra-low radio frequencies

F. de Gasperin, J. Vink, J. P. McKean +49

The four persistent radio sources in the northern sky with the highest flux density at metre wavelengths are Cassiopeia A, Cygnus A, Taurus A, and Virgo A; collectively they are ca…
