Measuring a Cherenkov ring in the radio emission from air showers at 110-190 MHz with LOFAR

A. Nelles, P. Schellart, S. Buitink +66

Measuring radio emission from air showers offers a novel way to determine properties of the primary cosmic rays such as their mass and energy. Theory predicts that relativistic tim…

LOFAR low-band antenna observations of the 3C295 and Bootes fields: source counts and ultra-steep spectrum sources

R. J. van Weeren, W. L. Williams, C. Tasse +98

We present LOFAR Low Band observations of the Bootes and 3C295 fields. Our images made at 34, 46, and 62 MHz reach noise levels of 12, 8, and 5 mJy beam, making them the dee…

The LOFAR Pilot Surveys for Pulsars and Fast Radio Transients

Thijs Coenen, Joeri van Leeuwen, Jason W. T. Hessels +87

We have conducted two pilot surveys for radio pulsars and fast transients with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) around 140 MHz and here report on the first low-frequency fast-radio…

LOFAR tied-array imaging of Type III solar radio bursts

D. E. Morosan, P. T. Gallagher, P. Zucca +82

The Sun is an active source of radio emission which is often associated with energetic phenomena such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). At low radio frequencies (<…

Lunar occultation of the diffuse radio sky: LOFAR measurements between 35 and 80 MHz

H. K. Vedantham, L. V. E. Koopmans, A. G. de Bruyn +91

We present radio observations of the Moon between and MHz to demonstrate a novel technique of interferometrically measuring large-scale diffuse emission extending far bey…

Initial LOFAR observations of Epoch of Reionization windows: II. Diffuse polarized emission in the ELAIS-N1 field

V. Jelic, A. G. de Bruyn, M. Mevius +106

This study aims to characterise the polarized foreground emission in the ELAIS-N1 field and to address its possible implications for the extraction of the cosmological 21-cm signal…
