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…
The radio emission pattern of air showers as measured with LOFAR - a tool for the reconstruction of the energy and the shower maximum
A. Nelles, S. Buitink, A. Corstanje +10
The pattern of the radio emission of air showers is finely sampled with the Low-Frequency ARray (LOFAR). A set of 382 measured air showers is used to test a fast, analytic paramete…
A method for high precision reconstruction of air shower Xmax using two-dimensional radio intensity profiles
S. Buitink, A. Corstanje, J. E. Enriquez +10
The mass composition of cosmic rays contains important clues about their origin. Accurate measurements are needed to resolve long-standing issues such as the transition from Galact…
LORA: A scintillator array for LOFAR to measure extensive air showers
S. Thoudam, S. Buitink, A. Corstanje +11
The measurement of the radio emission from extensive air showers, induced by high-energy cosmic rays is one of the key science projects of the LOFAR radio telescope. The LOfar Radb…
The LOFAR Pilot Surveys for Pulsars and Fast Radio Transients
Thijs Coenen, Joeri van Leeuwen, Jason W. T. Hessels +87
We have conducted two pilot surveys for radio pulsars and fast transients with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) around 140 MHz and here report on the first low-frequency fast-radio…
Lunar occultation of the diffuse radio sky: LOFAR measurements between 35 and 80 MHz
H. K. Vedantham, L. V. E. Koopmans, A. G. de Bruyn +91
We present radio observations of the Moon between and MHz to demonstrate a novel technique of interferometrically measuring large-scale diffuse emission extending far bey…
