Low frequency radio properties of the $z>5$ quasar population
(2021-12-31)
Optically luminous quasars at z > 5 are important probes of super-massive black hole (SMBH) formation. With new and future radio facilities, the discovery of the brightest low-frequency radio sources in this epoch would ...
LeMMINGs. III. The e-MERLIN Legacy Survey of the Palomar sample. Exploring the origin of nuclear radio emission in active and inactive galaxies through the [O III] -- radio connection
(2021-12-01)
What determines the nuclear radio emission in local galaxies? To address this question, we combine optical [O iii] line emission, robust black hole (BH) mass estimates, and high-resolution e-MERLIN 1.5-GHz data, from the ...
The LOFAR LBA Sky Survey: Deep Fields I. The Boötes Field
(2021-11-10)
We present the first sub-mJy ($\approx0.7$ mJy beam$^{-1}$) survey to be completed below 100 MHz, which is over an order of magnitude deeper than previously achieved for widefield imaging of any field at these low frequencies. ...
The ramp-up of interstellar medium enrichment at z>4
(2021-11-04)
Fluorine is one of the most interesting elements for nuclear and stellar astrophysics 1,2. Fluorine abundance was first measured for stars other than the Sun in 1992 1, then for a handful of metal-poor stars 3, which are ...
High resolution spectroscopic follow-up of the most metal-poor candidates from SkyMapper DR1.1
(2021-11-01)
We present chemical abundances for 21 elements (from Li to Eu) in 150 metal-poor Galactic stars spanning -4.1 < [Fe/H] < -2.1. The targets were selected from the SkyMapper survey and include 90 objects with [Fe/H] ≤ -3 of ...
Variable star classification across the Galactic bulge and disc with the VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea survey
(2021-10-30)
We present VIVACE, the VIrac VAriable Classification Ensemble, a catalogue of variable stars extracted from an automated classification pipeline for the Vista Variables in the V\'ia L\'actea (VVV) infrared survey of the ...
The Application of Ridgelines in Extended Radio Source Cross-Identification
(2021-10-22)
Extended radio sources are an important minority population in modern deep radio surveys, because they enable detailed investigation of the physics governing radio-emitting regions such as active galaxies and their ...
The JCMT Transient Survey: Four-year Summary of Monitoring the Submillimeter Variability of Protostars
(2021-10-21)
We present the four-year survey results of monthly submillimeter monitoring of eight nearby ($<500 $pc) star-forming regions by the JCMT Transient Survey. We apply the Lomb-Scargle Periodogram technique to search for and ...
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}$ ...
A snapshot of the oldest AGN feedback phases
(2021-10-18)
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) inject large amounts of energy into their host galaxies and surrounding environment, shaping their properties and evolution. In particular, AGN jets inflate cosmic-ray lobes, which can rise ...
