The Curious Case of Abell 2256
Tracy E. Clarke, Torsten Enßlin, Alexis Finoguenov +5
Abell 2256 is a rich, nearby (z=0.0594) galaxy cluster that has significant evidence of merger activity. We present new radio and X-ray observations of this system. The low-frequen…

Low-frequency radio observations of the galaxy cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301
R. J. van Weeren, H. T. Intema, H. J. A. Rottgering +2
Some disturbed galaxy clusters host diffuse elongated radio sources, also called radio relics. It is proposed that these relics trace shock waves in the intracluster medium (ICM).…

A deep radio and X-ray view of cluster formation at the crossroads of filaments
J. Bagchi, R. J. van Weeren, S. Raychaudhury +6
Deep X-ray data from CHANDRA and XMM-Newton, and GMRT radio data are presented for ZwCl 2341.1+0000, an extremely unusual and complex merging cluster of galaxies at the intersectio…
