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…

LOFAR 144-MHz follow-up observations of GW170817

J. W. Broderick, T. W. Shimwell, K. Gourdji +66

We present low-radio-frequency follow-up observations of AT 2017gfo, the electromagnetic counterpart of GW170817, which was the first binary neutron star merger to be detected by A…

Classification of Multiwavelength Transients with Machine Learning

K. Sooknunan, M. Lochner, Bruce A. Bassett +7

With the advent of powerful telescopes such as the Square Kilometer Array and the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, we are entering an era of multiwavelength transient astronomy that will…

On the optical counterparts of radio transients and variables

A. J. Stewart, T. Muñoz-Darias, R. P. Fender +1

We investigate the relation between the radio (F_r) and optical (F_o) flux densities of a variety of classes of radio transients and variables, with the aim of analysing whether th…

LOFAR 150-MHz observations of SS 433 and W 50

J. W. Broderick, R. P. Fender, J. C. A. Miller-Jones +28

We present LOFAR high-band data over the frequency range 115-189 MHz for the X-ray binary SS 433, obtained in an observing campaign from 2013 February - 2014 May. Our results inclu…

On the use of variability time-scales as an early classifier of radio transients and variables

M. Pietka, T. D. Staley, M. L. Pretorius +1

We have shown previously that a broad correlation between the peak radio luminosity and the variability time-scales, approximately L ~ t^5, exists for variable synchrotron emitting…
