Scientific paper

The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) is a multi-purpose, low frequency (10-250~MHz) sensor array. LOFAR is a radio-interferometer with most stations inside a 100 km disk and with longest baseline around 1500 km. It is based on relatively cheap and numerous stations across the Europe centred in the Netherlands and use real-time software correlation. Its main purposes are to study radio sky sources at these frequencies (including pulsar), transient phenomena, magnetism in the universe and to create an accurate sky model at these frequencies. Technical description of the array, as well as a description of its astronomical possibilities, are presented.
