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 LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey - II. First data release
T. W. Shimwell, C. Tasse, M. J. Hardcastle +104
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) is an ongoing sensitive, high-resolution 120-168MHz survey of the entire northern sky for which observations are now 20% complete. We present…
AGN duty cycle estimates for the ultra-steep spectrum radio relic VLSS J1431.8+1331
A. Shulevski, R. Morganti, P. D. Barthel +19
Steep spectrum radio sources associated with active galactic nuclei (AGN) may contain remnants of past AGN activity episodes. Novel instruments like the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR)…
Wide-field LOFAR imaging of the field around the double-double radio galaxy B1834+620: A fresh view on a restarted AGN and doubeltjes
E. Orrú, S. van Velzen, R. F. Pizzo +8
The existence of double-double radio galaxies (DDRGs) is evidence for recurrent jet activity in AGN, as expected from standard accretion models. A detailed study of these rare sour…
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…
Discovery of Carbon Radio Recombination Lines in absorption towards Cygnus~A
J. B. R. Oonk, R. J. van Weeren, F. Salgado +100
We present the first detection of carbon radio recombination line absorption along the line of sight to Cygnus A. The observations were carried out with the LOw Frequency ARray in…
