M87 at metre wavelengths: the LOFAR picture
F. de Gasperin, E. Orru', M. Murgia +92
M87 is a giant elliptical galaxy located in the centre of the Virgo cluster, which harbours a supermassive black hole of mass 6.4x10^9 M_sun, whose activity is responsible for the…
The LOFAR radio environment
A. R. Offringa, A. G. de Bruyn, S. Zaroubi +93
Aims: This paper discusses the spectral occupancy for performing radio astronomy with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR), with a focus on imaging observations. Methods: We have analys…
Wide-band Simultaneous Observations of Pulsars: Disentangling Dispersion Measure and Profile Variations
T. E. Hassall, B. W. Stappers, J. W. T. Hessels +91
Dispersion in the interstellar medium is a well known phenomenon that follows a simple relationship, which has been used to predict the time delay of dispersed radio pulses since t…
First LOFAR observations at very low frequencies of cluster-scale non-thermal emission: the case of Abell 2256
R. J. van Weeren, H. J. A. Rottgering, D. A. Rafferty +79
Abell 2256 is one of the best known examples of a galaxy cluster hosting large-scale diffuse radio emission that is unrelated to individual galaxies. It contains both a giant radio…
