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…
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…
A large light-mass component of cosmic rays at 10^{17} - 10^{17.5} eV from radio observations
S. Buitink, A. Corstanje, H. Falcke +101
Cosmic rays are the highest energy particles found in nature. Measurements of the mass composition of cosmic rays between 10^{17} eV and 10^{18} eV are essential to understand whet…
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…
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…
Probing Atmospheric Electric Fields in Thunderstorms through Radio Emission from Cosmic-Ray-Induced Air Showers
P. Schellart, T. N. G. Trinh, S. Buitink +71
We present measurements of radio emission from cosmic ray air showers that took place during thunderstorms. The intensity and polarization patterns of these air showers are radical…
