The SKA View of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect from Massive Cosmic Halos

Yvette C. Perrott, Luca Di Mascolo, Rémi Adam +4

The thermal intracluster medium (ICM) can be observed via its interaction with Cosmic Microwave Background photons, known as the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect. This effect produces…

Study of Polarized Emission in Radio Halos and Filaments in the SKA Telescopes Era

Valentina Vacca, Federica Govoni, Matteo Murgia +12

Synchrotron diffuse emission in merging galaxy clusters and along filaments connecting them demonstrates the presence of relativistic particles and magnetic fields in these environ…

Using rotation measure grids to detect cosmological magnetic fields -- a Bayesian approach

V. Vacca, N. Oppermann, T. Ensslin +17

Determining magnetic field properties in different environments of the cosmic large-scale structure as well as their evolution over redshift is a fundamental step toward uncovering…

The brightness and spatial distributions of terrestrial radio sources

A. R. Offringa, A. G. de Bruyn, S. Zaroubi +75

Faint undetected sources of radio-frequency interference (RFI) might become visible in long radio observations when they are consistently present over time. Thereby, they might obs…

LOFAR and APERTIF surveys of the radio sky: probing shocks and magnetic fields in galaxy clusters

Huub Rottgering, Jose Afonso, Peter Barthel +32

At very low frequencies, the new pan-European radio telescope LOFAR is opening the last unexplored window of the electromagnetic spectrum for astrophysical studies. The revolutiona…

LOFAR: Early imaging results from commissioning for Cygnus A

John McKean, Louise Ker, Reinout J. van Weeren +19

The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) will operate between 10 and 250 MHz, and will observe the low frequency Universe to an unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution. The constru…

GMRT observations of the Ophiuchus galaxy cluster

M. Murgia, D. Eckert, F. Govoni +4

VLA observations at 1477 MHz revealed the presence of a radio mini-halo surrounding the faint central point-like radio source in the Ophiuchus cluster of galaxies. In this work we…
