A scalable transient detection pipeline for the Australian SKA Pathfinder VAST survey
Sergio Pintaldi, Adam Stewart, Andrew O'Brien +2
The Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) collects images of the sky at radio wavelengths with an unprecedented field of view, combined with a high angular resolutio…
Identifying transient and variable sources in radio images
Antonia Rowlinson, Adam J. Stewart, Jess W. Broderick +16
With the arrival of a number of wide-field snapshot image-plane radio transient surveys, there will be a huge influx of images in the coming years making it impossible to manually…
RFI Flagging Implications for Short-Duration Transients
Y. Cendes, P. Prasad, A. Rowlinson +24
With their wide fields of view and often relatively long coverage of any position in the sky in imaging survey mode, modern radio telescopes provide a data stream that is naturally…
The LOFAR Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS) I. Survey description and first results
G. H. Heald, R. F. Pizzo, E. Orrú +147
We present the Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS), the first northern-sky LOFAR imaging survey. In this introductory paper, we first describe in detail the motivation and de…
The LOFAR Transients Pipeline
John D. Swinbank, Tim D. Staley, Gijs J. Molenaar +23
Current and future astronomical survey facilities provide a remarkably rich opportunity for transient astronomy, combining unprecedented fields of view with high sensitivity and th…
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…
New methods to constrain the radio transient rate: results from a survey of four fields with LOFAR
D. Carbone, A. J. van der Horst, R. A. M. J. Wijers +23
We report on the results of a search for radio transients between 115 and 190\,MHz with the LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR). Four fields have been monitored with cadences between 15 mi…
LOFAR Sparse Image Reconstruction
H. Garsden, J. N. Girard, J. L. Starck +77
Context. The LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) radio telescope is a giant digital phased array interferometer with multiple antennas distributed in Europe. It provides discrete sets of F…
