The role of cluster mergers and travelling shocks in shaping the H luminosity function at : `sausage' and `toothbrush' clusters

Andra Stroe, David Sobral, Huub J. A. Röttgering +1

The most extreme cluster mergers can lead to massive cluster-wide travelling shock waves. The CIZA J2242.8+5301 ('sausage') and 1RXS J0603.3+4213 (`toothbrush') clusters ($z\sim0.2…

A Merger Shock in Abell 2034

Matt S. Owers, Paul E. J. Nulsen, Warrick J. Couch +6

We present a ks Chandra observation of the cluster merger A2034 with the aim of understanding the nature of a sharp edge previously characterized as a cold front. The new da…

Detecting cosmic rays with the LOFAR radio telescope

P. Schellart, A. Nelles, S. Buitink +102

The low frequency array (LOFAR), is the first radio telescope designed with the capability to measure radio emission from cosmic-ray induced air showers in parallel with interferom…

Studying Galactic interstellar turbulence through fluctuations in synchrotron emission: First LOFAR Galactic foreground detection

M. Iacobelli, M. Haverkorn, E. Orrú +85

The characteristic outer scale of turbulence and the ratio of the random to ordered components of the magnetic field are key parameters to characterise magnetic turbulence in the i…

The brightness and spatial distributions of terrestrial radio sources

A. R. Offringa, A. G. de Bruyn, S. Zaroubi +75

Faint undetected sources of radio-frequency interference (RFI) might become visible in long radio observations when they are consistently present over time. Thereby, they might obs…

Complex diffuse radio emission in the merging PLANCK ESZ cluster Abell 3411

R. J. van Weeren, K. Fogarty, C. Jones +7

We present VLA radio and Chandra X-ray observations of the merging galaxy cluster Abell 3411. For the cluster, we find an overall temperature of 6.4 keV and an X-ray luminosity of…
