Untangling cosmic magnetic fields: Faraday tomography at metre wavelengths with LOFAR
(2018-11-29)
The technique of Faraday tomography is a key tool for the study ofmagnetised plasmas in the new era of broadband radio-polarisation observations. In particular, observations at metre wavelengths provide significantly better ...
LOFAR MSSS: Flattening low-frequency radio continuum spectra of nearby galaxies
(2018-11-07)
Aims. 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 shaping them. In this work we take ...
The intergalactic magnetic field probed by a giant radio galaxy
(2018-10-09)
Cosmological simulations predict that an intergalactic magnetic field (IGMF) pervades the large scale structure (LSS) of the Universe. Measuring the IGMF is important to determine its origin (i.e. primordial or otherwise). ...
Polarized point sources in the LOFAR Two-meter Sky Survey: A preliminary catalog
(2018-06-01)
The polarization properties of radio sources at very low frequencies (<200 MHz) have not been widely measured, but the new generation of low-frequency radio telescopes, including the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR: a Square ...
