In this data release from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) we present 120-168MHz images covering 27% of northern sky. Our coverage is split into two regions centred at approximately 12h45m +44$^\circ$30' and 1h00m +28$^\circ$00' spanning 4178 1457 square degrees respectively. The were derived 3,451hrs (7.6PB) High Band Antenna which corrected for direction-independent instrumental properties as well direction-dependent ionospheric distortions during extensive, but fully automated,...
In this predominantly photometric study, we investigate various types of and physical instabilities in the yellow hypergiant (YHG) ρ Cas as well its evolution between 1885 2023. The second study is YHG HR 8752, which recently became stable. other two hypergiants are 5171A HD 179821. We constructed temperature calibration relations based on T eff simultaneously observed B V photometry, exclusively for enabled us to discuss dependencies selective continuum opacity variations .

The International LOFAR Telescope (ILT) is a pan-European radio interferometer with baselines up to 2,000 km. This provides sub-arcsecond resolution at frequencies of <200 MHz. Since starting science operations in 2012, the ILT has carried out observations for state-of-the-art Two-metre Sky Survey, which 6 arcsec 144 Wide-area surveys low frequencies, while scientifically productive, have compromise on resolution. Sub-arcsecond imaging become more accessible over last decade, thanks efforts...
The purpose of this investigation was to determine how models weightlessness, hindlimb suspension (HS), and immobilization (HI) affect the metabolic enzyme profile in slow oxidative (SO), fast glycolytic (FOG), (FG) fibers rat hindlimb. After 1, 2, or 4 wk HS HI, single were isolated from freeze-dried soleus gastrocnemius muscles; a small section each fiber run on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gels identify type, remaining piece assayed for either lactate...
Fatigue failure in micron-scale polycrystalline silicon structural films, a phenomenon that is not observed bulk silicon, can severely impact the durability and reliability of microelectromechanical system devices. Despite several studies on very high-cycle fatigue behavior these films (up to 1012cycles), there still an on-going debate precise mechanisms involved. We show here for devices fabricated multiuser process (MUMPs) foundry Sandia Ultra-planar, Multi-level MEMS Technology (SUMMiT...
Radio mini-haloes are poorly-understood, moderately-extended diffuse radio sources that trace the presence of magnetic fields and relativistic electrons on scales hundreds kiloparsecs, predominantly in relaxed clusters. With relatively few confirmed detections to-date, many questions remain unanswered. This paper presents new observations galaxy cluster MS1455.0$+$2232 performed with MeerKAT (covering frequency range 872$-$1712 MHz) LOFAR 120$-$168 MHz), first results from a homogeneously...
In this paper we report the first identification of jellyfish galaxies in Perseus cluster (Abell 426). We identified four (LEDA 2191078, MCG +07-07-070, UGC 2654, 2665) within central $2^\circ \times 2^\circ$ ($2.6\,\mathrm{Mpc} 2.6\,\mathrm{Mpc}$) based on presence one-sided radio continuum tails that were detected at $144\,\mathrm{MHz}$ by LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR). The observed tails, as well orientation morphological features rest-frame optical, are consistent with these being impacted...
ABSTRACT Many relaxed cool-core clusters host diffuse radio emission on scales of hundreds kiloparsecs: mini-haloes. However, the mechanism responsible for generating them, as well their connection with central active galactic nuclei, is elusive and many questions related to physical properties origins remain unanswered.

Measurements of the quantity radio-mode feedback injected by an active galactic nucleus into cluster environment have mostly relied on X-ray observations, which reveal cavities in intracluster medium excavated radio lobes. However, sensitivity required to accurately constrain dimensions these has proven be a major limiting factor and is main bottleneck high-redshift measurements. We describe hybrid method based combination aims enhance our ability study feedback. In this paper, we present...

The prominent radio source Hercules A features complex structures in its lobes. Although it is one of the most comprehensively studied sources sky, origin ring lobes remains an open question. We present first sub-arcsecond angular resolution images at low frequencies (<300 MHz) A, made with International LOFAR Telescope. With addition data from Karl G.

Radio-mode feedback associated with the active galactic nuclei (AGN) at cores of galaxy clusters injects large amount energy into intracluster medium (ICM), offsetting radiative losses through X-ray emission. This mechanism prevents ICM from rapidly cooling down and fueling extreme starburst activity as it accretes onto central galaxies, is therefore a key ingredient in evolution clusters. However, influence mode high redshifts (z~1) remains largely unknown. Low-frequency sub-arcsecond...
