The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey. I. Survey description and preliminary data release

Timothy W. Shimwell, +85 more
TL;DR: The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) as mentioned in this paper is a deep 120-168 MHz imaging survey that will eventually cover the entire northern sky, where each of the 3170 pointings will be observed for 8 h, which, at most declinations, is sufficient to produce ~5? resolution images with a sensitivity of ~100?Jy/beam and accomplish the main scientific aims of the survey, which are to explore the formation and evolution of massive black holes, galaxies, clusters of galaxies and large-scale structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey - II. First data release

Timothy W. Shimwell, +124 more
TL;DR: The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) is an ongoing sensitive, high-resolution 120-168 MHz survey of the entire northern sky for which observations are now 20% complete as discussed by the authors.

The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS). V. Second data release

Timothy W. Shimwell, +105 more
TL;DR: In this article , a catalogue of 4,396,228 radio sources is derived from the total intensity (Stokes I) maps, where the majority of these have never been detected at radio wavelengths before.
