Revived Fossil Plasma Sources in Galaxy Clusters

S. Mandal, H. T. Intema, R. J. van Weeren +10

It is well established that particle acceleration by shocks and turbulence in the intra-cluster medium can produce cluster-scale synchrotron emitting sources. However, the detailed…

ConvoSource: Radio-Astronomical Source-Finding with Convolutional Neural Networks

V. Lukic, F. De Gasperin, M. Brüggen

Finding and classifying astronomical sources is key in the scientific exploitation of radio surveys. Source-finding usually involves identifying the parts of an image belonging to…

Particle acceleration in a nearby galaxy cluster pair: the role of cluster dynamics

A. Botteon, R. Cassano, D. Eckert +17

Diffuse radio emission associated with the intra-cluster medium (ICM) is observed in a number of merging galaxy clusters. It is currently believed that in mergers a fraction of the…

LOFAR discovery of a radio halo in the high-redshift galaxy cluster PSZ2 G099.86+58.45

R. Cassano, A. Botteon, G. Di Gennaro +15

In this Letter, we report the discovery of a radio halo in the high-redshift galaxy cluster PSZ2 G099.86+58.45 () with the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) at 120-168 MHz. This…

Diffuse Radio Emission from Galaxy Clusters

R. J. van Weeren, F. de Gasperin, H. Akamatsu +5

In a growing number of galaxy clusters diffuse extended radio sources have been found. These sources are not directly associated with individual cluster galaxies. The radio emissio…
