MIGHTEE: total intensity radio continuum imaging and the COSMOS / XMM-LSS Early Science fields
(2021-10-21)
MIGHTEE is a galaxy evolution survey using simultaneous radio continuum, spectro-polarimetry, and spectral line observations from the South African MeerKAT telescope. When complete, the survey will image $\sim$20 deg$^{2}$ ...
Low-frequency radio spectra of submillimetre galaxies in the Lockman Hole
(2021-04-19)
We investigate the radio properties of a sample of 53 sources selected at 850 $\mu$m from the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey using new deep, low-frequency radio imaging of the Lockman Hole field from the Low Frequency ...
The LOFAR Two Meter Sky Survey : Deep Fields Data Release 1, I -- Direction-dependent calibration and imaging
(2021-04-07)
The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) is an ideal instrument to conduct deep extragalactic surveys. It has a large field of view and is sensitive to large scale and compact emission. It is, however, very challenging to synthesize ...
The bright end of the infrared luminosity functions and the abundance of hyperluminous infrared galaxies
(2021-04-07)
We provide the most accurate estimate yet of the bright end of the infrared (IR) luminosity functions (LFs) and the abundance of hyperluminous IR galaxies (HLIRGs) with IR luminosities > 10^13 L_solar, thanks to the ...
LOFAR Deep Fields : Probing a broader population of polarized radio galaxies in ELAIS-N1
(2021-04-07)
We present deep polarimetric observations of the European Large Area ISO Survey-North 1 (ELAIS-N1) field using the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) at 114.9-177.4 MHz. The ELAIS-N1 field is part of the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey ...
LOFAR Properties of SILVERRUSH Lya emitter candidates in the ELAIS-N1 Field
(2021-04-07)
Lyman alpha emitters (LAEs) in the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) offer valuable probes of early galaxy evolution and the process of reionization; however, the exact evolution of their abundance and the nature of their emission ...
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey: Deep Fields: : II. The ELAIS-N1 LOFAR deep field
(2021-04-07)
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) will cover the full northern sky and, additionally, aims to observe the LoTSS deep fields to a noise level of ~10 microJy/bm over several tens of square degrees in areas that have the ...
The LOFAR Two Metre Sky Survey: Deep Fields Data Release 1. III. Host-galaxy identifications and value added catalogues
(2021-04-07)
We present the source associations, cross-identifications, and multi-wavelength properties of the faint radio source population detected in the deep tier of the LOFAR Two Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS): the LoTSS Deep Fields. ...
The contribution of discrete sources to the sky temperature at 144 MHz
(2021-04-07)
In recent years, the level of the extragalactic radio background has become a point of considerable interest, with some lines of argument pointing to an entirely new cosmological synchrotron background. The contribution ...
The best of both worlds : Combining LOFAR and Apertif to derive resolved radio spectral index images
(2021-04-07)
Supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies can cycle through periods of activity and quiescence. Characterising the duty cycle of active galactic nuclei is crucial for understanding the impact of the energy they ...
