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…

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…

Absolute Calibration of the Radio Astronomy Flux Density Scale at 22 to 43 GHz Using Planck

B. Partridge, M. López-Caniego, R. A. Perley +5

The Planck mission detected thousands of extragalactic radio sources at frequencies from 28 to 857 GHz. Planck's calibration is absolute (in the sense that it is based on the satel…

Hubble Space Telescope Observations of Dusty Filaments in Hercules A: Evidence for Entrainment

Christopher P. O'Dea, Stefi A. Baum, Grant R. Tremblay +3

We present U, V, and I-band images of the host galaxy of Hercules A (3C 348) obtained with HST/WFC3/UVIS. We find a network of dusty filaments which are more complex and extended t…

Radio Constraints on Heavily-Obscured Star-Formation within Dark Gamma-Ray Burst Host Galaxies

D. A. Perley, R. A. Perley

Highly dust-obscured starbursting galaxies (submillimeter galaxies and their ilk) represent the most extreme sites of star-formation in the distant universe and contribute signific…

Resolving the Radio Source Background: Deeper Understanding Through Confusion

J. J. Condon, W. D. Cotton, E. B. Fomalont +6

We used the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to image one primary beam area at 3 GHz with 8 arcsec FWHM resolution and 1.0 microJy/beam rms noise near the pointing center. The…
