We examine data from the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) in the frequency range 72 -- 102 MHz for a field-of-view that serendipitously contained the interstellar object 'Oumuamua on 2017 November 28. Observations took place with time…

We report the first astrophysical application of the technique of wide-field Interplanetary Scintillation (IPS) with the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA). This powerful technique allows us to identify and measure sub-arcsecond compact…

The low frequency component of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA1-Low) will be an aperture phased array located at the Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory (MRO) site in Western Australia. It will be composed of 512 stations, each of them…

A host of new low-frequency radio telescopes seek to measure the 21-cm transition of neutral hydrogen from the early universe. These telescopes have the potential to directly probe star and galaxy formation at redshifts $20 \gtrsim z…

Accurate antenna beam models are critical for radio observations aiming to isolate the redshifted 21cm spectral line emission from the Dark Ages and the Epoch of Reionization and unlock the scientific potential of 21cm cosmology. Past work…

Refraction and diffraction of incoming radio waves by the ionosphere induce time variability in the angular positions, peak amplitudes and shapes of radio sources, potentially complicating the automated cross-matching and identification of…

We present early results from a project to measure the sky-averaged (global), redshifted $21\,$cm signal from the Epoch of Reionisation (EoR), using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) telescope. Because interferometers are not sensitive to…

We present and evaluate the prospects for detecting coherent radio counterparts to gravitational wave (GW) events using Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) triggered observations. The MWA rapid-response system, combined with its buffering mode…

We describe a new low-frequency wideband radio survey of the southern sky. Observations covering 72 - 231 MHz and Declinations south of $+30^\circ$ have been performed with the Murchison Widefield Array "extended" Phase II configuration…

We present new molecular modelling for 14NO and 15NO and a deep, blind molecular line survey at low radio frequencies (99-129 MHz). This survey is the third in a series completed with the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), but in comparison…

We present the results of a pilot study search for Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) at low frequencies (139 - 170 MHz). We utilised MWA data obtained in a routine imaging mode from observations where the…

Type II solar radio bursts are caused by magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) shocks driven by solar eruptive events such as Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs). Often both fundamental and harmonic bands of type II bursts are split into sub-bands,…
