LOFAR/H-ATLAS: A deep low-frequency survey of the Herschel-ATLAS North Galactic Pole field
(2016-10-21)
We present LOFAR High-Band Array (HBA) observations of the Herschel-ATLAS North Galactic Pole survey area. The survey we have carried out, consisting of four pointings covering around 142 square degrees of sky in the ...
The WEAVE-LOFAR Survey
(Societe Francaise d'Astronomie et d'Astrophysique, 2016-10-14)
In these proceedings we highlight the primary scientific goals and design of the WEAVE-LOFAR survey, which will use the new WEAVE spectrograph on the 4.2m William Herschel Telescope to provide the primary source of ...
GAMA/H-ATLAS: common star formation rate indicators and their dependence on galaxy physical parameters
(2016-09-11)
We compare common star-formation rate (SFR) indicators in the local Universe in the GAMA equatorial fields (around 160 sq. deg.), using ultraviolet (UV) photometry from GALEX, far-infrared (FIR) and sub-millimetre (sub-mm) ...
A resolved map of the infrared excess in a Lyman Break Galaxy at z=3
(2016-09-10)
We have observed the dust continuum of ten z=3.1 Lyman Break Galaxies with the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array at ~450 mas resolution in Band 7. We detect and resolve the 870um emission in one of the targets ...
Excited-state hydroxyl maser catalogue from the methanol multibeam survey -- I. Positions and Variability
(2016-09-01)
We present the results of the first complete unbaised survey of the Galactic Plane for 6035-MHz excited-state hydroxyl masers undertaken as part of the Methanol Multibeam Survey. These observations cover the Galactic ...
A deep / wide 1-2 GHz snapshot survey of SDSS Stripe 82 using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array in a compact hybrid configuration
(2016-08-21)
We have used the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array to image ~100 sq. deg. of SDSS Stripe 82 at 1-2 GHz. The survey consists of 1,026 snapshot observations of 2.5 minutes duration, using the hybrid CnB configuration. The ...
The average submillimetre properties of Lyman-alpha Blobs at z=3
(2016-08-21)
Ly-alpha blobs (LABs) offer insight into the complex interface between galaxies and their circumgalactic medium. Whilst some LABs have been found to contain luminous star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei that ...
Radio Galaxy Zoo: discovery of a poor cluster through a giant wide-angle tail radio galaxy
(2016-08-11)
We have discovered a previously unreported poor cluster of galaxies (RGZ-CL J0823.2+0333) through an unusual giant wide-angle tail radio galaxy found in the Radio Galaxy Zoo project. We obtained a spectroscopic redshift ...
Hi-GAL, the Herschel infrared Galactic Plane Survey : photometric maps and compact source catalogues. First data release for Inner Milky Way: +68°> l > -70°
(2016-07-04)
(Abridged) We present the first public release of high-quality data products (DR1) from Hi-GAL, the {\em Herschel} infrared Galactic Plane Survey. Hi-GAL is the keystone of a suite of continuum Galactic Plane surveys from ...
What are the megahertz peaked-spectrum sources?
(2016-07-01)
Megahertz peaked-spectrum (MPS) sources have spectra that peak at frequencies below 1 GHz in the observer's frame and are believed to be radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN). We recently presented a new method to search ...
