The great Kite in the sky: a LOFAR observation of the radio source in Abell 2626
A. Ignesti, T. Shimwell, G. Brunetti +15
The radio source at the center of the galaxy cluster Abell 2626, also known as the Kite, stands out for its unique morphology composed of four, symmetric arcs. Previous studies hav…
Low-frequency observations of the Giant Radio Galaxy NGC 6251
T. M. Cantwell, J. D. Bray, J. H. Croston +22
We present LOFAR observations at 150 MHz of the borderline FRI/FRII giant radio galaxy NGC 6251. This paper presents the most sensitive and highest-resolution images of NGC 6251 at…
Signatures from a merging galaxy cluster and its AGN population: LOFAR observations of Abell 1682
A. O. Clarke, A. M. M. Scaife, T. Shimwell +13
We present LOFAR data from 110--180~MHz of the merging galaxy cluster Abell 1682, alongside archival optical, radio and X-ray data. Our 6 arc-second resolution images at low freque…
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey - II. First data release
T. W. Shimwell, C. Tasse, M. J. Hardcastle +104
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) is an ongoing sensitive, high-resolution 120-168MHz survey of the entire northern sky for which observations are now 20% complete. We present…
LOFAR MSSS: Flattening low-frequency radio continuum spectra of nearby galaxies
K. T. Chyży, W. Jurusik, J. Piotrowska +35
The shape of low-frequency radio continuum spectra of normal galaxies is not well understood, the key question being the role of physical processes such as thermal absorption in sh…
Studying the late evolution of a radio-loud AGN in a galaxy group with LOFAR
Federica Savini, Annalisa Bonafede, Marcus Brüggen +17
Feedback by radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN) in galaxy groups is not fully understood. Open questions include the duty cycle of the AGN, the spatial extent of the radio lobe…
