Two-component large-scale radio emission in Abell 2244
M. Cianfaglione, F. De Gasperin, V. Cuciti +9
Context. In recent years, clusters have been observed that host multi-component haloes, both in non-merging and merging systems. The existence of these multi-component haloes sugge…
The plethora of diffuse emission in Abell 2034 as revealed by MeerKAT polarization observations
A. Bonafede, M. Balboni, G. W. Pratt +15
The paper presents MeerKAT multi‑frequency and polarimetric observations of the merging galaxy cluster Abell 2034, confirming a radio halo, identifying a relic and steep‑spectrum f…
The topology of the magnetic field in Abell 2255 out to its virial radius. Results from the LOFAR Galaxy Cluster Ultra-Deep Field
A. Botteon, R. J. van Weeren, Y. Hu +14
The paper presents ultra‑deep LOFAR radio images of the galaxy cluster Abell 2255 and uses the synchrotron intensity gradient method to map the orientation of its magnetic field fr…
Radio Halos in Galaxy Clusters as unveiled by the SKA telescope
R. Cassano, G. Di Gennaro, V. Cuciti +24
Giant radio halos (RHs) are diffuse, Mpc-scale synchrotron sources observed in a growing fraction of galaxy clusters. They trace relativistic particles and magnetic fields in the i…
Multi-Wavelength Signatures of a Giant Cometary Radio Halo in MACSJ0417-1154
Ramananda Santra, Marco Balboni, Ruta Kale
Galaxy clusters hosting diffuse non-thermal radio emission offer direct insight into plasma processes of the intracluster medium (ICM). We present the first multi-frequency study o…
The youth of the intracluster medium. I. A non-parametric characterisation of the gas and electron number density profiles of protoclusters
David Vallés-Pérez, Annalisa Bonafede, Klaus Dolag +3
Context. Protoclusters of galaxies are the earliest phase in the assembly of galaxy clusters and can provide invaluable information about plasma physics, cosmic magnetism, and cosm…
