LOFAR Observation (MS file) from the Boötes Field and the Toothbrush cluster used in the paper: "Looking beyond pixels with continuous-space EstimAtion of Point sources"

<p>The dataset contains the measurement sets (MS file) of the LOFAR observations from the Boötes field and the Toothbrush cluster. The dataset was used in the experiments of the paper: </p> <blockquote> <p>LEAP: Looking beyond pixels with continuous-spaceEstimAtion of Point sources</p> <p>Pan, H., Simeoni, M., Hurley, P., Blu, T. &amp; Vetterli, M. In: Astronomy &amp; Astrophysics, in press, 2017</p> </blockquote> <p>The data was provided as a collaboration between ASTRON and IBM within the DOME project. The data was acquired for a LOFAR sky survey of the Boötes field:</p> <blockquote> <p>LOFAR 150-MHz observations of the Boötes field: Catalogue and Source Counts</p> <p>Williams, W.
