    • The discovery of a radio galaxy of at least 5 Mpc 

      Oei, Martijn S. S. L.; Weeren, Reinout J. van; Hardcastle, Martin J.; Botteon, Andrea; Shimwell, Tim W.; Dabhade, Pratik; Gast, Aivin R. D. J. G. I. B.; Röttgering, Huub J. A.; Brüggen, Marcus; Tasse, Cyril; Williams, Wendy L.; Shulevski, Aleksandar (2022-04-01)
      Context. Giant radio galaxies (GRGs, or colloquially giants) are the Universes largest structures generated by individual galaxies. They comprise synchrotron-radiating active galactic nucleus ejecta and attain cosmological ...
    • Faraday tomography of LoTSS-DR2 data : I. Faraday moments in the high-latitude outer Galaxy and revealing Loop III in polarisation 

      Erceg, Ana; Jelić, Vibor; Haverkorn, Marijke; Bracco, Andrea; Shimwell, Timothy W.; Tasse, Cyril; Dickey, John M.; Ceraj, Lana; Drabent, Alexander; Hardcastle, Martin J.; Turić, Luka (2022-07-01)
      Context. Observations of synchrotron emission at low radio frequencies reveal a labyrinth of polarised Galactic structures. However, the explanation for the wealth of structures remains uncertain due to the complex ...
    • LOFAR and APERTIF Surveys of the Radio Sky : Probing Shocks and Magnetic Fields in Galaxy Clusters 

      Rottgering, Huub; Afonso, Jose; Barthel, Peter; Batejat, Fabien; Best, Philip; Bonafede, Annalisa; Brueggen, Marcus; Brunetti, Gianfranco; Chyzy, Krzysztof; Conway, John; De Gasperin, Francesco; Ferrari, Chiara; Haverkorn, Marijke; Heald, George; Hoeft, Matthias; Jackson, Neal; Jarvis, M.J.; Ker, Louise; Lehnert, Matt; Macario, Giulia; McKean, John; Miley, George; Morganti, Raffaella; Oosterloo, Tom; Orru, Emanuela; Pizzo, Roberto; Rafferty, David; Shulevski, Alexander; Tasse, Cyril; van Bemmel, Ilse; van der Tol, Bas; van Weeren, Reinout; Verheijen, Marc; White, Glenn; Wise, Michael (2011-12)
      At very low frequencies, the new pan-European radio telescope LOFAR is opening the last unexplored window of the electromagnetic spectrum for astrophysical studies. The revolutionary APERTIF-phased arrays that are about ...
    • LOFAR/H-ATLAS: The low-frequency radio luminosity - star-formation rate relation 

      Gurkan, Gulay; Hardcastle, Martin J.; Smith, Daniel; Best, Philip N.; Bourne, Nathan; Calistro-Rivera, Gabriela; Heald, George; Jarvis, Matt J.; Prandoni, Isabella; Rottgering, Huub J. A.; Sabater, Jose; Shimwell, Tim; Tasse, Cyril; Williams, Wendy L. (2018-04-11)
      Radio emission is a key indicator of star-formation activity in galaxies, but the radio luminosity-star formation relation has to date been studied almost exclusively at frequencies of 1.4 GHz or above. At lower radio ...
    • LoTSS/HETDEX: Optical quasars I. Low-frequency radio properties of optically selected quasars 

      Gürkan, Gülay; Hardcastle, Martin; Best, Philip; Morabito, Leah; Prandoni, Isabella; Jarvis, Matt; Duncan, Ken; Rivera, Gabriela Calistro; Callingham, Joe; Cochrane, Rachel; Croston, Judith; Heald, George; Mingo, Beatriz; Mooney, Sean; Sabater, Jose; Röttgering, Huub; Shimwell, Timothy; Smith, Dan; Tasse, Cyril; Williams, Wendy (2018-10-10)
      The radio-loud/radio-quiet (RL/RQ) dichotomy in quasars is still an open question. Although it is thought that accretion onto supermassive black holes in the centre the host galaxies of quasars is responsible for some radio ...
    • Spectral analysis of spatially-resolved 3C295 (sub-arcsecond resolution) with the International LOFAR Telescope 

      Bonnassieux, Etienne; Sweijen, Frits; Brienza, Marisa; Rajpurohit, Kamlesh; Riseley, Christopher John; Bonafede, Annalisa; Jackson, Neal; Morabito, Leah K.; Brunetti, Gianfranco; Harwood, Jeremy; Kappes, Alex; Rottgering, Huub J.; Tasse, Cyril; Weeren, Reinout van (2022-02-25)
      3C295 is a bright, compact steep spectrum source with a well-studied integrated radio spectral energy distribution (SED) from 132 MHz to 15 GHz. However, spatially resolved spectral studies have been limited due to a lack ...
    • The XXL Survey: : XXIX. GMRT 610 MHz continuum observations 

      Smolcic, Vernesa; Intema, Huib; Slaus, Bruno; Raychaudhury, Somak; Novak, Mladen; Horellou, Cathy; Chiappetti, Lucio; Delhaize, Jacinta; Birkinshaw, Mark; Bondi, Marco; Bremer, Malcolm; Ciliegi, Paolo; Ferrari, Chiara; Kolokythas, Konstantinos; Lidman, Chris; McGee, Sean L.; Norris, Ray; Pierre, Marguerite; Rottgering, Huub; Tasse, Cyril; Williams, Wendy (2018-12-01)
      We present the 25 square-degree GMRT-XXL-N 610 MHz radio continuum survey, conducted at 50 cm wavelength with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) towards the XXL Northern field (XXL-N). We combined previously published ...
