A 5.3-minute-period pulsing white dwarf in a binary detected from radio to X-rays

Ingrid Pelisoli, T. R. Marsh, David A. H. Buckley +19

White dwarf stars are the most common stellar fossils. When in binaries, they make up the dominant form of compact object binary within the Galaxy and can offer insight into differ…

An ASKAP survey for HI absorption towards dust-obscured quasars

M. Glowacki, J. R. Allison, V. A. Moss +11

Obscuration of quasars by accreted gas and dust, or dusty intervening galaxies, can cause active galactic nuclei (AGN) to be missed in optically-selected surveys. Radio observation…

Connecting X-ray absorption and 21cm neutral hydrogen absorption in obscured radio AGN

V. A. Moss, J. R. Allison, E. M. Sadler +22

Many radio galaxies show the presence of dense and dusty gas near the active nucleus. This can be traced by both 21cm HI absorption and soft X-ray absorption, offering new insight…

The detection of an extremely bright fast radio burst in a phased array feed survey

Keith Bannister, Ryan Shannon, Jean-Pierre Macquart +53

We report the detection of an ultra-bright fast radio burst (FRB) from a modest, 3.4-day pilot survey with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder. The survey was conducte…

The radio spectral energy distribution of infrared-faint radio sources

A. Herzog, R. P. Norris, E. Middelberg +57

Infrared-faint radio sources (IFRS) are a class of radio-loud (RL) active galactic nuclei (AGN) at high redshifts (z > 1.7) that are characterised by their relative infrared faintn…
