      Radio continuum (RC) emission in galaxies allows us to measure star formation rates (SFRs) unaffected by extinction due to dust, of which the low-frequency part is uncontaminated from thermal (free-free) emission. We ...
    • Detection of magnetic fields in the circumgalactic medium of nearby galaxies using Faraday rotation 

      Heesen, V.; O'Sullivan, S. P.; Brüggen, M.; Basu, A.; Beck, R.; Seta, A.; Carretti, E.; Krause, M. G. H.; Haverkorn, M.; Hutschenreuter, S.; Bracco, A.; Stein, M.; Bomans, D. J.; Dettmar, R. -J.; Chyży, K. T.; Heald, G. H.; Paladino, R.; Horellou, C. (2023-02-24)
      Context. The existence of magnetic fields in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is largely unconstrained. Their detection is important as magnetic fields can have a significant impact on the evolution of the CGM and, in turn, ...

      Context. Radio loud active galactic nuclei (AGN) are episodic in nature, cycling through periods of activity and quiescence. The study of this duty cycle has recently gained new relevance because of the importance of AGN ...
    • Exploring the making of a galactic wind in the star-bursting dwarf irregular galaxy IC 10 with LOFAR 

      Heesen, V.; Rafferty, D. A.; Horneffer, A.; Beck, R.; Basu, A.; Westcott, J.; Hindson, L.; Brinks, E.; Chyży, K. T.; Scaife, A. M. M.; Brüggen, M.; Heald, George; Fletcher, A.; Horellou, C.; Tabatabaei, F. S.; Paladino, R.; Nikiel-Wroczyński, B.; Hoeft, M.; Dettmar, R. -J. (2018-05-11)
      Low-mass galaxies are subject to strong galactic outflows, in which cosmic rays may play an important role; they can be best traced with low-frequency radio continuum observations, which are less affected by spectral ageing. ...
