Spectral energy distribution and radio halo of NGC 253 at low radio frequencies

A. D. Kapinska, L. Staveley-Smith, R. Crocker +67

We present new radio continuum observations of NGC253 from the Murchison Widefield Array at frequencies between 76 and 227 MHz. We model the broadband radio spectral energy distrib…

The radio spectral energy distribution of infrared-faint radio sources

A. Herzog, R. P. Norris, E. Middelberg +57

Infrared-faint radio sources (IFRS) are a class of radio-loud (RL) active galactic nuclei (AGN) at high redshifts (z > 1.7) that are characterised by their relative infrared faintn…

A Large Scale, Low Frequency Murchison Widefield Array Survey of Galactic HII regions between 260< l <\340

L. Hindson, M. Johnston-Hollitt, N. Hurley-Walker +40

We have compiled a catalogue of HII regions detected with the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) between 72 and 231MHz. The multiple frequency bands provided by the MWA allow us ident…

Broadband Spectral Modeling of the Extreme Gigahertz-Peaked Spectrum Radio Source PKS B0008-421

J. R. Callingham, B. M. Gaensler, R. D. Ekers +40

We present broadband observations and spectral modeling of PKS B0008-421, and identify it as an extreme gigahertz-peaked spectrum (GPS) source. PKS B0008-421 is characterized by th…

The Spectral Variability of the GHz-Peaked Spectrum Radio Source PKS 1718-649 and a Comparison of Absorption Models

S. J. Tingay, J. -P. Macquart, J. D. Collier +42

Using the new wideband capabilities of the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), we obtain spectra for PKS 1718-649, a well-known gigahertz-peaked spectrum radio source. The ob…
