MOSS III: MeerKATs view on the galaxy populations in two massive galaxy clusters

Robert Kincaid, Mark Sargent, Pascale Jablonka +5

The MeerKAT Observations of the Saraswati Supercluster (MOSS) is an ongoing project attempting to study the radio and optical properties of the core region of the Saraswati supercl…

uGMRT and MeerKAT observation of RXCJ0232-4420: a quiet cluster with a giant radio halo

Pralay Biswas, Ramananda Santra, Ruta Kale +1

Giant radio halos are the Mpc-scale extended sources associated with the merging clusters, while the mini-halos are preferentially associated with cool-core clusters. Both trace th…

What drives the wheels of evolution in NGC 1512? A UVIT study

Thomas Robin, Sreeja S Kartha, Ujjwal Krishnan +4

Environmental and secular processes play a pivotal role in the evolution of galaxies. These can be due to external processes such as interactions or internal processes due to the a…

Mining Mini-Halos with MeerKAT I. Calibration and Imaging

K. S. Trehaeven, V. Parekh, N. Oozeer +7

Radio mini-halos are clouds of diffuse, low surface brightness synchrotron emission that surround the Brightest Cluster Galaxy (BCG) in massive cool-core galaxy clusters. In this p…

The MeerKAT Galaxy Cluster Legacy Survey I. Survey Overview and Highlights

K. Knowles, W. D. Cotton, L. Rudnick +148

MeerKAT's large number of antennas, spanning 8 km with a densely packed 1 km core, create a powerful instrument for wide-area surveys, with high sensitivity over a wide range of an…

Jets from MRC 0600-399 bent by magnetic fields in the cluster Abell 3376

James O. Chibueze, Haruka Sakemi, Takumi Ohmura +7

Galaxy clusters are known to harbour magnetic fields. The nature of the intra-cluster magnetic fields remains an unresolved question. Intra-cluster magnetic field can be observed a…

MeerKAT's discovery of a radio relic in the bimodal merging cluster A2384

V. Parekh, K. Thorat, R. Kale +12

We present the discovery of a single radio relic located at the edge of the galaxy cluster A2384, using the MeerKAT radio telescope. A2384 is a nearby ( = 0.092), low mass, comp…

A study of spectral curvature in the radio relic in Abell 4038 using the uGMRT

Ruta Kale, Viral Parekh, K. S. Dwarakanath

The remnant radio galaxies in galaxy clusters are important sources of seed relativistic electron population in the intra-cluster medium (ICM). Their occurrence and spectral proper…

A hot X-ray filament associated with A3017 galaxy cluster

Viral Parekh, F. Durret, P. Padmanabh +1

Recent simulations and observations have shown large scale filaments in the cosmic web connecting nodes, with accreting materials (baryonic and dark matter) flowing through them. C…

A study of diffuse radio sources and X-ray emission in six massive clusters

Viral Parekh, K. S. Dwarakanath, Ruta Kale +1

The goal of the present study is to extend our current knowledge of the diffuse radio source (halo and relic) populations to 0.3. Here we report GMRT and EVLA radio observa…
