Galaxy clusters enveloped by vast volumes of relativistic electrons
V. Cuciti, F. de Gasperin, M. Brueggen +12
The central regions of galaxy clusters are permeated by magnetic fields and filled with relativistic electrons. When clusters merge, the magnetic fields are amplified and relativis…
The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey -- V. Second data release
T. W. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle, C. Tasse +103
In this data release from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) we present 120-168MHz images covering 27% of the northern sky. Our coverage is split into two regions centred at ap…
The Planck clusters in the LOFAR sky. I. LoTSS-DR2: new detections and sample overview
A. Botteon, T. W. Shimwell, R. Cassano +23
Relativistic electrons and magnetic fields permeate the intra-cluster medium (ICM) and manifest themselves as diffuse sources of synchrotron emission observable at radio wavelength…
The ultra-steep diffuse radio emission observed in the cool-core cluster RX J1720.1+2638 with LOFAR at 54 MHz
N. Biava, F. de Gasperin, A. Bonafede +17
Diffuse radio emission at the centre of galaxy clusters has been observed both in merging clusters on scales of Mpc, called giant radio haloes, and in relaxed systems with a cool-c…
A LOFAR-uGMRT spectral index study of distant radio halos
G. Di Gennaro, R. J. van Weeren, R. Cassano +9
Context. Radio halos are megaparsec-scale diffuse radio sources{ mostly} located at the centres of merging galaxy clusters. The common mechanism invoked to explain their origin is…
Nonthermal phenomena in the center of Abell 1775: An 800 kpc head-tail, revived fossil plasma and slingshot radio halo
A. Botteon, S. Giacintucci, F. Gastaldello +15
Thermal gas in the center of galaxy clusters can show substantial motions that generate surface-brightness and temperature discontinuities known as cold fronts. The motions may be…
