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.
Journal ArticleDOI

LOFAR 150-MHz observations of the Boötes field: catalogue and source counts

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the first wide area (19 deg(2)), deep (a parts per thousand 120-150 mu Jy beam(-1)), high-resolution (5.6 x 7.4 arcsec) LOFAR High Band Antenna image of the Bootes field made at 130-169 MHz.
Journal ArticleDOI

The LOFAR Two-meter Sky Survey: Deep Fields Data Release 1. I. Direction-dependent calibration and imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new calibration and imaging pipeline that aims at producing high fidelity, high dynamic range images with LOFAR High Band Antenna data, while being computationally efficient and robust against the absorption of unmodeled radio emission.
