Rise and Fall of Radio Halos in Simulated Merging Galaxy Clusters
Julius Donnert, Klaus Dolag, Gianfranco Brunetti +1
We present the first high resolution MHD simulation of cosmic-ray electron reacceleration by turbulence in cluster mergers. We use an idealised model for cluster mergers, combined…
Low frequency follow up of radio halos and relics in the GMRT Radio Halo Cluster Survey
Tiziana Venturi, Simona Giacintucci, Daniele Dallacasa +4
We performed GMRT low frequency observations of the radio halos, relics and new candidates belonging to the GMRT Radio Halo Cluster Sample first observed at 610 MHz. High sensitivi…
Radio Continuum Surveys with Square Kilometre Array Pathfinders
Ray P. Norris, J. Afonso, D. Bacon +48
In the lead-up to the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project, several next-generation radio telescopes and upgrades are already being built around the world. These include APERTIF (T…
M87 at metre wavelengths: the LOFAR picture
F. de Gasperin, E. Orru', M. Murgia +92
M87 is a giant elliptical galaxy located in the centre of the Virgo cluster, which harbours a supermassive black hole of mass 6.4x10^9 M_sun, whose activity is responsible for the…
Radio Halos in future surveys in the radio continuum
R. Cassano, G. Brunetti, Ray P. Norris +3
Giant radio halos (RH) are Mpc-scale synchrotron sources detected in a significant fraction of massive and merging galaxy clusters.Their statistical properties can be used to discr…
Probing the origin of giant radio halos through radio and gamma-ray data : the case of the Coma cluster
G. Brunetti, P. Blasi, O. Reimer +3
We combine all available information about the spectral shape and morphology of the radio halo of the Coma cluster with the gamma-ray upper limits obtained by the Fermi-LAT and wit…
