ATCA observations of the MACS-Planck Radio Halo Cluster Project II. Radio observations of an intermediate redshift cluster sample

G. Martinez Aviles, M. Johnston-Hollitt, C. Ferrari +16

A fraction of galaxy clusters host diffuse radio sources whose origins are investigated through multi-wavelength studies of cluster samples. We investigate the presence of diffuse…

Forecasting Polarized Radio Sources for CMB observations

G. Puglisi, V. Galluzzi, L. Bonavera +7

We combine the latest datasets obtained with different surveys to study the frequency dependence of polarized emission coming from Extragalactic Radio Sources (ERS). We consider da…

Average fractional polarization of extragalactic sources at Planck frequencies

T. Trombetti, C. Burigana, G. De Zotti +2

Recent detailed simulations have shown that an insufficiently accurate characterization of the contamination of unresolved polarized extragalactic sources can seriously bias measur…

Resolved magnetic dynamo action in the simulated intracluster medium

F. Vazza, G. Brunetti, M. Brüggen +1

Faraday rotation and synchrotron emission from extragalactic radio sources give evidence for the presence of magnetic fields extending over ~Mpc scales. However, the origin of thes…

Simulations of extragalactic magnetic fields and of their observables

F. Vazza, M. Brüggen, C. Gheller +3

The origin of extragalactic magnetic fields is still poorly understood. Based on a dedicated suite of cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical simulations with the ENZO code we have per…

Euclid: Superluminous supernovae in the Deep Survey

C. Inserra, R. C. Nichol, D. Scovacricchi +31

In the last decade, astronomers have found a new type of supernova called `superluminous supernovae' (SLSNe) due to their high peak luminosity and long light-curves. These hydrogen…

Simulations of ultra-high Energy Cosmic Rays in the local Universe and the origin of Cosmic Magnetic Fields

Stefan Hackstein, Franco Vazza, Marcus Brüggen +2

We simulate the propagation of cosmic rays at ultra-high energies, eV, in models of extragalactic magnetic fields in constrained simulations of the local Universe…

Observations of the galaxy cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301 with the Sardinia Radio Telescope

F. Loi, M. Murgia, F. Govoni +25

We observed the galaxy cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301 with the Sardinia Radio Telescope to provide new constraints on its spectral properties at high frequency. We conducted observation…

Complex diffuse emission in the cluster PLCK~G004.5-19.5

J. G. Albert, C. Sifón, A. Stroe +4

We present radio observations of the galaxy cluster PLCK G004.5-19.5 () using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope at 150~MHz, 325~MHz, and 610~MHz. We find an unusual arran…

Discovery of a radio relic in the low mass, merging galaxy cluster PLCK G200.9-28.2

Ruta Kale, Daniel R. Wik, Simona Giacintucci +5

Radio relics at the peripheries of galaxy clusters are tracers of the elusive cluster merger shocks. We report the discovery of a single radio relic in the galaxy cluster PLCK G200…

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): An unbiased estimate of the growth rate of structure at using the clustering of luminous blue galaxies

F. G. Mohammad, B. R. Granett, L. Guzzo +34

We use the VIPERS final data release to investigate the performance of colour-selected populations of galaxies as tracers of linear large-scale motions. We empirically select volum…

Evolution of vorticity and enstrophy in the intracluster medium

Denis Wittor, Tom Jones, Franco Vazza +1

Turbulence generated by large-scale motions during structure formation affects the evolution of the thermal and non-thermal components of the intracluster medium. As enstrophy is a…

On the absence of radio halos in clusters with double relics

A. Bonafede, R. Cassano, M. Brüggen +10

Pairs of radio relics are believed to form during cluster mergers, and are best observed when the merger occurs in the plane of the sky. Mergers can also produce radio halos, throu…

Simulations of the Galaxy Cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301 I: Thermal Model and Shock Properties

J. M. F. Donnert, A. M. Beck, K. Dolag +1

The giant radio relic in CIZA J2242.8+5301 is likely evidence of a Mpc sized shock in a massive merging galaxy cluster. However, the exact shock properties are still not clearly de…

Sardinia Radio Telescope observations of Abell 194 - the intra-cluster magnetic field power spectrum

F. Govoni, M. Murgia, V. Vacca +30

We study the intra-cluster magnetic field in the poor galaxy cluster Abell 194 by complementing radio data, at different frequencies, with data in the optical and X-ray bands. We a…

The two-component giant radio halo in the galaxy cluster Abell 2142

T. Venturi, M. Rossetti, G. Brunetti +9

We report on a spectral study at radio frequencies of the giant radio halo in A2142 (z=0.0909), which we performed to explore its nature and origin. A2142 is not a major merger and…
