AGN Jets from Formation to Dissipation

Anne-Kathrin Baczko, A. -K. Baczko, Eleni Vardoulaki +27

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are among the most energetic phenomena in the Universe, capable of launching powerful relativistic jets that extend from sub-parsec to megaparsec scale…

The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey: VII. Third Data Release

T. W. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle, C. Tasse +99

We present the third data release of the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS-DR3). The survey images cover 88% of the northern sky and were created from 12,950 hrs of data (18.6 PB)…

A MeerKAT-meets-LOFAR study of Abell 1413: a moderately disturbed non-cool-core cluster hosting a kpc 'mini'-halo

C. J. Riseley, N. Biava, G. Lusetti +12

Many relaxed cool-core clusters host diffuse radio emission on scales of hundreds of kiloparsecs: mini-haloes. However, the mechanism responsible for generating them, as well as th…

Radio fossils, relics, and haloes in Abell 3266: cluster archaeology with ASKAP-EMU and the ATCA

C. J. Riseley, E. Bonnassieux, T. Vernstrom +21

Abell 3266 is a massive and complex merging galaxy cluster that exhibits significant substructure. We present new, highly sensitive radio continuum observations of Abell 3266 perfo…

The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey -- V. Second data release

T. W. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle, C. Tasse +103

In this data release from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) we present 120-168MHz images covering 27% of the northern sky. Our coverage is split into two regions centred at ap…

The galaxy group NGC 507: newly detected AGN remnant plasma transported by sloshing

M. Brienza, L. Lovisari, K. Rajpurohit +15

Jets from active galactic nuclei (AGN) are known to recurrently enrich their surrounding medium with mildly-relativistic particles and magnetic fields. Here, we present a detailed…

Pilot study and early results of the Cosmic Filaments and Magnetism Survey with Nenufar: the Coma cluster field

Bonnassieux Etienne, Evangelia Tremou, Julien N. Girard +9

NenuFAR, the New Extension in Nancay Upgrading LOFAR, is currently in its early science phase. It is in this context that the Cosmic Filaments and Magnetism Pilot Survey is observi…

Spectral analysis of spatially-resolved 3C295 (sub-arcsecond resolution) with the International LOFAR Telescope

Etienne Bonnassieux, Frits Sweijen, Marisa Brienza +11

3C295 is a bright, compact steep spectrum source with a well-studied integrated radio spectral energy distribution (SED) from 132 MHz to 15 GHz. However, spatially resolved spectra…

The resolved jet of 3C 273 at 150 MHz

Jeremy J. Harwood, Sean Mooney, Leah K. Morabito +6

Since its discovery in 1963, 3C273 has become one of the most widely studied quasars with investigations spanning the electromagnetic spectrum. While much has been discovered about…

Physical insights from the spectrum of the radio halo in MACS J0717.5+3745

K. Rajpurohit, G. Brunetti, A. Bonafede +18

We present new LOFAR observations of the massive merging galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745. The cluster hosts the most powerful radio halo known to date. These new observations, in…

Understanding the radio relic emission in the galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745: spectral analysis

K. Rajpurohit, D. Wittor, R. J. van Weeren +21

Radio relics are diffuse, extended synchrotron sources that originate from shock fronts generated during cluster mergers. The massive merging galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745 hosts…
