Description
LOFAR has proved to be one on the most successful SKA pathfinder in the
Northern hemisphere opening up a poorly investigated radio window
providing observations at 144MHz with unprecedented sensitivity and resolution with the addition of the International Stations.
The Euclid Deep Field North (EDFN), located at RA=269.73 deg and
Dec=+66.02 deg in the North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) region, is the fourth
field of the LOFAR Deep Field project, and the only deep field in the
northern sky to be observed by the Euclid mission.
The Euclid satellite will cover the circular shape 20 sq deg of the
EDFN with multiple passes providing high-resolution near-IR imaging
(~0.3 arcsecond) down to the full depth of H=26 by DR3.
In this talk I will present an overview of the LOFAR observations on the EDFN, the status of the data processing and some of the results obtained so far imaging the EDFN with an angular resolution ranging from 6" down to 0".3.
