Degree-Scale Galactic Radio Emission at 122 MHz around the North Celestial Pole with LOFAR-AARTFAAC
B. K. Gehlot, L. V. E. Koopmans, A. R. Offringa +11
Aims: Contamination from bright diffuse Galactic thermal and non-thermal radio emission poses crucial challenges in experiments aiming to measure the 21-cm signal of neutral hydrog…
Combining LOFAR and Apertif Data for Understanding the Life Cycle of Radio Galaxies
Raffaella Morganti, Nika Jurlin, Tom Oosterloo +10
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) at the centres of galaxies can cycle between periods of activity and of quiescence. Characterising the duty-cycle of AGN is crucial for understanding t…
Sub-arcsecond imaging with the International LOFAR Telescope: II. Completion of the LOFAR Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey
Neal Jackson, Shruti Badole, John Morgan +69
The Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey (LBCS) was conducted between 2014 and 2019 in order to obtain a set of suitable calibrators for the LOFAR array. In…
Sub-arcsecond imaging with the International LOFAR Telescope I. Foundational calibration strategy and pipeline
L. K. Morabito, N. J. Jackson, S. Mooney +71
[abridged] The International LOFAR Telescope is an interferometer with stations spread across Europe. With baselines of up to ~2,000 km, LOFAR has the unique capability of achievin…
Searching for low radio-frequency gravitational wave counterparts in wide-field LOFAR data
K. Gourdji, A. Rowlinson, R. A. M. J. Wijers +3
The electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational wave (GW) merger events are highly sought after, but difficult to find owing to large localization regions. In this study, we pres…
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…
