Investigating double bump air showers with the SKA-Low

V. De Henau, S. Bouma, J. Bray +30

Double-bump showers are a rare class of extensive air showers (EAS) predicted by Monte Carlo simulations. They occur when a high-energy secondary particle, the leading particle, tr…

Chromatic periodic activity down to 120 MHz in a Fast Radio Burst

Inés Pastor-Marazuela, Liam Connor, Joeri van Leeuwen +34

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are extragalactic astrophysical transients whose brightness requires emitters that are highly energetic, yet compact enough to produce the short, milliseco…

Reconstructing air shower parameters with LOFAR using event specific GDAS atmospheres

P. Mitra, A. Bonardi, A. Corstanje +15

The limited knowledge of atmospheric parameters like humidity, pressure, temperature, and the index of refraction has been one of the important systematic uncertainties in reconstr…

On the cosmic-ray energy scale of the LOFAR radio telescope

K. Mulrey, S. Buitink, A. Corstanje +14

Cosmic rays are routinely measured at LOFAR, both with a dense array of antennas and with the LOFAR Radboud air shower Array (LORA) which is an array of plastic scintillators. In t…

Repeating fast radio bursts with WSRT/Apertif

L. C. Oostrum, Y. Maan, J. van Leeuwen +40

Repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) present excellent opportunities to identify FRB progenitors and host environments, as well as decipher the underlying emission mechanism. Detaile…

The Low-Frequency Radio Eclipses of the Black Widow Pulsar J1810+1744

E. J. Polzin, R. P. Breton, A. O. Clarke +10

We have observed and analysed the eclipses of the black widow pulsar J1810+1744 at low radio frequencies. Using LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR) and Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope…

A large light-mass component of cosmic rays at 10^{17} - 10^{17.5} eV from radio observations

S. Buitink, A. Corstanje, H. Falcke +101

Cosmic rays are the highest energy particles found in nature. Measurements of the mass composition of cosmic rays between 10^{17} eV and 10^{18} eV are essential to understand whet…

Probing Atmospheric Electric Fields in Thunderstorms through Radio Emission from Cosmic-Ray-Induced Air Showers

P. Schellart, T. N. G. Trinh, S. Buitink +71

We present measurements of radio emission from cosmic ray air showers that took place during thunderstorms. The intensity and polarization patterns of these air showers are radical…
