The discovery of a radio galaxy of at least 5 Mpc
(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 ...
The ALMA REBELS Survey : the dust content of z ∼7 Lyman break galaxies
(2022-03-03)
We include a fully coupled treatment of metal and dust enrichment into the Delphi semi-analytic model of galaxy formation to explain the dust content of 13 Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) detected by the Atacama Large millimetre ...
Gaia GraL: Gaia DR2 Gravitational Lens Systems. VII. XMM-Newton Observations of Lensed Quasars
(2022-03-03)
We present XMM-Newton X-ray observations of nine confirmed lensed quasars at 1 ≲ z ≲ 3 identified by the Gaia Gravitational Lens program. Eight systems are strongly detected, with 0.3-8.0 keV fluxes F 0.3-8.0 ≳ 5 ×10-14 ...
Sub-arcsecond imaging with the International LOFAR Telescope : I. Foundational calibration strategy and pipeline
(2022-02-28)
The International LOFAR Telescope is an interferometer with stations spread across Europe. With baselines of up to ∼2000 km, LOFAR has the unique capability of achieving sub-arcsecond resolution at frequencies below 200 ...
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey -- V. Second data release
(2022-02-25)
In this data release from the ongoing LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR) Two-metre Sky Survey we present 120a 168 MHz images covering 27% of the northern sky. Our coverage is split into two regions centred at approximately 12h45m ...
Accretion mode versus radio morphology in the LOFAR Deep Fields
(2022-02-16)
Radio-loud active galaxies have two accretion modes [radiatively inefficient (RI) and radiatively efficient (RE)], with distinct optical and infrared signatures, and two jet dynamical behaviours, which in arcsec- to ...
Non-star-forming molecular gas in the Abell 1367 intra-cluster multiphase orphan cloud
(2022-02-04)
We report the detection of CO emission in the recently discovered multiphase isolated gas cloud in the nearby galaxy cluster Abell 1367. The cloud is located about 800 kpc in projection from the center of the cluster and ...
The resolved jet of 3C 273 at 150 MHz : Sub-arcsecond imaging with the LOFAR international baselines
(2022-02-01)
Context. Since its discovery in 1963, 3C 273 has become one of the most widely studied quasars with investigations spanning the electromagnetic spectrum. While much has therefore been discovered about this historically ...
Sub-arcsecond imaging with the International LOFAR Telescope. II. Completion of the LOFAR Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey
(2022-02-01)
The Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey (LBCS) was conducted between 2014 and 2019 in order to obtain a set of suitable calibrators for the LOFAR array. In this paper, we present the complete survey, ...
High-resolution international LOFAR observations of 4C~43.15 -- Spectral ages and injection indices in a high-z radio galaxy
(2022-02-01)
It has long been known that radio sources with the steepest spectra are preferentially associated with the most distant galaxies, the α - z relation, but the reason for this relation is an open question. The spatial ...
