Investigating the magnetic field in the inter-cluster filament between Abell 3667 and Abell 3651 with POSSUM

C. Stuardi, S. P. O'Sullivan, L. Rudnick +19

[Abridged abstract] The objective of this study is to measure the magnetic field within the prominent inter-cluster filament recently detected in X-rays by the extended ROentgen Su…

The plethora of diffuse emission in Abell 2034 as revealed by MeerKAT polarization observations

A. Bonafede, M. Balboni, G. W. Pratt +15

We present MeerKAT observations of the galaxy cluster Abell 2034, a massive (M_500=5.21 10^14 solar masses) nearby cluster in a merging state. Previous observations at 144 MHz have…

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…

Detection of magnetic fields in superclusters of galaxies

G. V. Pignataro, S. P. O'Sullivan, A. Bonafede +3

Magnetic fields in large scale structure filaments beyond galaxy clusters remain poorly understood. Superclusters offer a unique setting to study these low density environments, wh…

Mind the Gap between A2061 and A2067: Unveiling new diffuse large-scale radio emission

G. V. Pignataro, A. Bonafede, G. Bernardi +11

The clusters Abell 2061 and Abell 2067 in the Corona Borealis supercluster have been studied at different radio frequencies and are both known to host diffuse radio emission. The a…

Abell 0399-Abell 0401 radio bridge spectral index: the first multifrequency detection

G. V. Pignataro, A. Bonafede, G. Bernardi +12

Recent low-frequency radio observations at 140 MHz discovered a 3 Mpc-long bridge of diffuse emission connecting the galaxy clusters Abell 0399 and Abell 0401. We present follow-up…

Sardinia Radio Telescope observations of the Coma Cluster

M. Murgia, F. Govoni, V. Vacca +25

We present deep total intensity and polarization observations of the Coma cluster at 1.4 and 6.6 GHz performed with the Sardinia Radio Telescope. By combining the single-dish 1.4 G…

The VLBA CANDELS GOODS-North Survey. I -- Survey Design, Processing, Data Products, and Source Counts

Roger P. Deane, Jack F. Radcliffe, Ann Njeri +9

The past decade has seen significant advances in wide-field cm-wave very long baseline interferometry (VLBI), which is timely given the wide-area, synoptic survey-driven strategy o…

Probing diffuse radio emission in bridges between galaxy clusters with uGMRT

G. V. Pignataro, A. Bonafede, G. Bernardi +3

The main purpose of this work is to investigate the properties of the non-thermal emission in the interacting clusters pairs Abell 0399-Abell 0401 and Abell 21-PSZ2 G114.9, found i…

Constraints on the magnetic field in the inter-cluster bridge A399-A401

M. Balboni, A. Bonafede, G. Bernardi +7

Galaxy cluster mergers are natural consequences of the structure formation in the Universe. Such events involve a large amount of energy ( erg) dissipated during the…

Radio multifrequency observations of Abell~781 with the WSRT

B. V. Hugo, G. Bernardi, O. M. Smirnov +4

The `Main' galaxy cluster in the Abell 781 system is undergoing a significant merger and accretion process with peripheral emission to the north and southeastern flanks of the merg…
