We used the second data release of the 144 MHz LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey to produce circularly polarised maps with a median noise of 140 µJy beam−1 and resolution of 20″ for ≈27% of the northern sky (5634 deg2). The leakage of total intensity into circular polarisation is measured to be ≈0.06%, and our survey is complete at flux densities ≥1 mJy. A detection is considered reliable when the circularly polarised fraction exceeds 1%. We find the population of circularly polarised sources is composed of four distinct classes: stellar systems, pulsars, active galactic nuclei, and sources unidentified in the literature. The stellar systems can be further separated into chromospherically active stars, M dwarfs, and brown dwarfs. Based on the circularly polarised fraction and lack of an optical counterpart, we show it is possible to infer whether the unidentified sources are likely unknown pulsars or brown dwarfs. By the completion of this survey of the northern sky, we expect to detect 300±100 circularly polarised sources. 000125260 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/101017536/EU/EOSC Future/EOSC Future$$9This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 101017536-EOSC Future$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/743029/EU/Ejection Accretion Structures in YSOs (EASY)/EASY$$9This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 743029-EASY$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/772663/EU/The MAgnetic field in the GALaxy, using Optical Polarization of Stars/MAGALOPS$$9This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 772663-MAGALOPS$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2020-117404GB-C21$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/SEV-2017-0709 000125260 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000125260 590__ $$a5.4$$b2023 000125260 592__ $$a1.896$$b2023 000125260 591__ $$aASTRONOMY & ASTROPHYSICS$$b11 / 84 = 0.131$$c2023$$dQ1$$eT1 000125260 593__ $$aSpace and Planetary Science$$c2023$$dQ1 000125260 593__ $$aAstronomy and Astrophysics$$c2023$$dQ1 000125260 594__ $$a10.2$$b2023 000125260 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000125260 700__ $$aShimwell, T.
