A Linearly Polarized Merger Shock Down to 550 MHz: A uGMRT Study of the Merging Cluster Abell 746

Arpan Pal, Ruta Kale, Reinout J. van Weeren

Radio relics, arc-like polarized sources with highly aligned magnetic fields, are typically found on the outskirts of merging galaxy clusters. The magneto-ionic media responsible f…

A new enigmatic radio relic in the low mass cluster Abell 2108

Swarna Chatterjee, Majidul Rahaman, Abhirup Datta +2

We report the discovery of a radio relic in the northeastern periphery of the cluster Abell 2108 (A2108). A2108 is a part of the uGMRT LOw-MAss Galaxy Cluster Survey (GLOMACS), whe…

Are radio minihalos confined by cold fronts in galaxy clusters? Minihalos and large-scale sloshing in A3444 and MS 1455.0+2232

Simona Giacintucci, Tiziana Venturi, Maxim Markevitch +3

We present radio and X-ray studies of A3444 and MS1455.0+2232, two galaxy clusters with radio minihalos in their cool cores. A3444 is imaged using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telesco…

Cygnus X-3 revealed as a Galactic ultraluminous X-ray source by IXPE

Alexandra Veledina, Fabio Muleri, Juri Poutanen +127

The accretion of matter by compact objects can be inhibited by radiation pressure if the luminosity exceeds the critical value, known as the Eddington limit. Discovery of ultralumi…

Diffuse radio source candidate in CIZA J1358.9-4750

Kohei Kurahara, Takuya Akahori, Ruta Kale +11

We report on results of our upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) observations for an early-stage merging galaxy cluster, CIZA J1358.9-4750 (CIZA1359), in Band-3 (300--5…

Substructure analysis of the RXCJ0232.2-4420 galaxy cluster

Viral Parekh, Tatiana F. Laganá, Ruta Kale

RXCJ0232.2-4420, at = 0.28, is a peculiar system hosting a radio halo source around the cool-core of the cluster. To investigate its formation and nature, we used archival {\it…
