Astronomers have taken an unprecedentedly detailed look at the tendrils and filaments that wrap around supermassive black hole-dominated galaxies of Abell 2255.

A repeating radio burst every 2 hours from Ursa Major reveals a unique white dwarf–red dwarf system, shaking up theories in ...

The galaxy clusters involved in this scuffle are part of a larger system—a “combined” galaxy cluster—called PSZ2 G181. In a study published in The Astrophysical Journal in April, researchers analyzed ...

LOFAR will use low-band antennas operating at 10–90 MHz and high-band devices operating between 110 and 250 MHz will allow scientists to look back to the formation of the first stars in the universe ...

Our LOFAR survey only covered 15 percent of the sky. And most of these giant jets are likely difficult to spot, so we believe there are many more of these behemoths out there.” ...

LOFAR is an array of radio antennas that span hundreds of kilometers across Europe, centered in the Netherlands but with additional stations in France, Germany, Ireland, Latvia, Poland, Sweden and ...

LOFAR is the largest radio telescope on Earth and headquartered in the Netherlands. Since it opened in 2010, it has had additional antennas installed throughout Europe to boost its resolution, ...

A Dutch-Italian-German team of astronomers has observed a huge glow of radio emission around a cluster of thousands of galaxies. They combined data from thousands of LOFAR antennas that were ...
