SZ effect from radio-galaxy lobes: astrophysical and cosmological relevance
S. Colafrancesco
We derive the SZ effect arising in radio-galaxy lobes that are filled with high-energy, non-thermal electrons. We provide here quantitative estimates for SZ effect expected from th…

Warming rays in cluster cool cores
S. Colafrancesco, P. Marchegiani
We present a model of cosmic ray heating of clusters' cores that reproduces the observed temperature distribution in clusters by using an energy balance condition in which the emit…

Beyond the Standard Lore of the SZ effect
S. Colafrancesco
Multi-frequency (X-ray, optical and radio) observations of galaxy clusters indicate that the atmospheres of these cosmic structures consist of a complex structure of thermal (hot a…
