Here we present stringent low-frequency 185MHz limits on coherent radio emission associated with a short gamma-ray burst (SGRB). Our observations of the short GRB 180805A were taken with the upgraded Murchison Widefield Array (MWA)…

The SKA will be the largest radio astronomy observatory ever built, providing unprecedented sensitivity over a very broad frequency (50 MHz to 15.3 GHz). The SKA-Low (50 - 350 MHz), will be built at the MRO in Western Australia. It will…
