The giant radio source 0917+75: Origin and properties

G. Giovannini, N. Biava, M. Girardi +11

Context. Several author have studied the giant radio source GRS0917 + 75 , but its origin remains unclear. Aims. This source is unusual, because of its large size and its location…

CLASH-VLT: The inner slope of the MACS J1206.2-0847 dark matter density profile

A. Biviano, L. Pizzuti, A. Mercurio +7

The inner slope (gammadm) of the dark matter (DM) density profile of cosmological halos carries information about the properties of DM and/or baryonic processes affecting the halo…

Optical/X-ray/radio view of Abell 1213: A galaxy cluster with anomalous diffuse radio emission

W. Boschin, M. Girardi, S. De Grandi +5

Context. Abell 1213, a low-richness galaxy system, is known to host an anomalous radio halo detected in data of the VLA. It is an outlier with regard to the relation between the ra…

A newly identified galaxy group thanks to tidal streams of intragroup light

M. Girardi, S. Zarattini, W. Boschin +5

In the accretion-driven growth scenario, part of the intracluster light is formed in the group environment. We report the serendipitous discovery of a group of galaxies with signs…

VST-GAME: Galaxy Assembly as a function of Mass and Environment with VST. Photometric assessment and density field of MACSJ0416

Nicolas Estrada, Amata Mercurio, Benedetta Vulcani +14

Observational studies have widely demonstrated that galaxy physical properties are strongly affected by the surrounding environment. On one side, gas inflows provide galaxies with…

Fossil group origins XII. Large-scale environment around fossil systems

S. Zarattini, J. A. L. Aguerri, R. Calvi +1

We analyse the large-scale structure out to 100 Mpc around a sample of 16 confirmed fossil systems using spectroscopic information from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 16…
