Observations of a nearby filament of galaxy clusters with the Sardinia Radio Telescope

V. Vacca, M. Murgia, F. Govoni +29

We report the detection of diffuse radio emission which might be connected to a large-scale filament of the cosmic web covering a 8deg x 8deg area in the sky, likely associated wit…

Observations of the galaxy cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301 with the Sardinia Radio Telescope

F. Loi, M. Murgia, F. Govoni +25

We observed the galaxy cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301 with the Sardinia Radio Telescope to provide new constraints on its spectral properties at high frequency. We conducted observation…

Sardinia Radio Telescope observations of Abell 194 - the intra-cluster magnetic field power spectrum

F. Govoni, M. Murgia, V. Vacca +30

We study the intra-cluster magnetic field in the poor galaxy cluster Abell 194 by complementing radio data, at different frequencies, with data in the optical and X-ray bands. We a…

Using rotation measure grids to detect cosmological magnetic fields -- a Bayesian approach

V. Vacca, N. Oppermann, T. Ensslin +17

Determining magnetic field properties in different environments of the cosmic large-scale structure as well as their evolution over redshift is a fundamental step toward uncovering…

Statistical methods for the analysis of rotation measure grids in large scale structures in the SKA era

Valentina Vacca, Niels Oppermann, Torsten Ensslin +18

To better understand the origin and properties of cosmological magnetic fields, a detailed knowledge of magnetic fields in the large-scale structure of the Universe (galaxy cluster…
