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…

The peculiar radio galaxy 4C 35.06: a case for recurrent AGN activity?

A. Shulevski, R. Morganti, P. D. Barthel +85

Using observations obtained with the LOw Fequency ARray (LOFAR), the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) and archival Very Large Array (VLA) data, we have traced the radio…

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…

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…

LOFAR detections of low-frequency radio recombination lines towards Cassiopeia A

Ashish Asgekar, J. B. R. Oonk, S. Yatawatta +89

Cassiopeia A was observed using the Low-Band Antennas of the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) with high spectral resolution. This allowed a search for radio recombination lines (RRLs) a…
