Ultra-Steep Spectrum Radio `Jellyfish' Uncovered in Abell 2877

no code implementations11 Mar 2021 Torrance Hodgson, Iacopo Bartalucci, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt, Benjamin McKinley, Franco Vazza, Denis Wittor

We report on the discovery of a mysterious ultra-steep spectrum (USS) synchrotron source in the galaxy cluster Abell 2877.

Callingham, Kshitij Thorat, Chen Wu, Paul Hancock, Richard W. Hunstead, Nick Seymour, Jesse Swan, Randall Wayth, John Morgan, Rajan Chhetri, Carole Jackson, Stuart Weston, Martin Bell, Bi-Qing For, B. M. Gaensler, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt, André Offringa, Lister Staveley-Smith

Of these G4Jy sources, 78 are resolved by the MWA (Phase-I) synthesised beam ($\sim$2 arcmin at 200 MHz), and we label 67% of the sample as 'single', 26% as 'double', 4% as 'triple', and 3% as having 'complex' morphology at $\sim$1 GHz (45-arcsec resolution).

The GLEAM 4-Jy (G4Jy) Sample: II. Host-galaxy identification for individual sources

This is the GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA (GLEAM) Survey, and we have previously used a combination of visual inspection, cross-checks against the literature, and internal matching to identify the 'brightest' radio-sources ($S_{\mathrm{151MHz}} >$ 4 Jy) in the extragalactic catalogue (Galactic latitude, $|b| >$ 10 deg).

A fast and exact $w$-stacking and $w$-projection hybrid algorithm for wide-field interferometric imaging

1 code implementation24 Jul 2018 Luke Pratley, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt, Jason D. McEwen

We show that the same calculation can be performed with a radially symmetric $w$-projection kernel, where we use one dimensional adaptive quadrature to calculate the resulting Hankel transform, decreasing the computation required for kernel generation by several orders of magnitude, whilst preserving the accuracy.
