Extragalactic sources towards the central region of the Galaxy
Restricted Access.We have observed a sample of 64 small-diameter sources towards the central -6° < l < 6°, -2° < b < 2° of the Galaxy with the aim of studying the Faraday rotation measure near the Galactic Centre region.

HEAD IN THE STARS, FEET ON THE GROUND: Scale and Astronomy Initiatives in Southern Africa
ABSTRACT This article explores the evolution of radio astronomy in South Africa and Madagascar, focusing on how “scale” functions as both a way of understanding the world and marking differences in existence. In outer space research, the ground is crucial but often overlooked.

Planck early results. XIII. Statistical properties of extragalactic radio sources in the Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalogue [PDF]
The data reported inPlanck’s Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC) are exploited to measure the number counts (dN/dS )o f extragalactic radio sources at 30, 44, 70, 100, 143 and 217 GHz.

The Extragalactic Gamma-Ray Background from Core-dominated Radio Galaxies [PDF]
Recent radio surveys have discovered a large number of low-luminosity core-dominated radio galaxies that are much more abundant than those at higher luminosities.

An Extragalactic Widefield Search for Technosignatures with the Murchison Widefield Array
It is common for surveys that are designed to find artificial signals generated by distant civilizations to focus on galactic sources. Recently, researchers have started focusing on searching for all other sources within the field observed, including the

An Updated Repository of Sub-mJy Extragalactic Source-Count Measurements in the Radio Domain
We present an updated repository of sub-mJy extragalactic radio source counts between 150 MHz and 10 GHz, incorporating recent advances in radio surveys and observational techniques. By compiling and refining previous datasets, we provide a comprehensive

Faraday rotation measures (RMs) of fast radio bursts (FRBs) offer the prospect of directly measuring extragalactic magnetic fields. We present an analysis of the RMs of 10 as yet nonrepeating FRBs detected and localized to host galaxies with robust ...

Deep Space Network Radio Science and Ground‐Based Planetary Radar in the Next Decade
Abstract The Deep Space Network (DSN) has been a core operational element of NASA's crewed and robotic exploration of the Solar System since the early 1960s. The primary role of the DSN has been to acquire telemetry and navigation data, but over the years, its radiometric and radar capabilities have expanded to form a system for obtaining unique ...

THE IMAGES OF EXTRAGALACTIC RADIO SOURCES IN THE DIFFUSION MODEL
The distribution of the spectral index and radio lobes' isophots were derived by numerical methods in the diffusion model of extragalactic radio sources. The kinetic equation for the distribution function of relativistic electrons is considered.

Extragalactic radio surveys in the pre-Square Kilometre Array era [PDF]
The era of the Square Kilometre Array is almost upon us, and pathfinder telescopes are already in operation. This brief review summarizes our current knowledge of extragalactic radio sources, accumulated through six decades of continuum surveys at the ...
