Physical insights from the spectrum of the radio halo in MACS J0717.5+3745
K. Rajpurohit, G. Brunetti, A. Bonafede +18
We present new LOFAR observations of the massive merging galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745. The cluster hosts the most powerful radio halo known to date. These new observations, in…
MIGHTEE: Are giant radio galaxies more common than we thought?
J. Delhaize, I. Heywood, M. Prescott +31
We report the discovery of two new giant radio galaxies (GRGs) using the MeerKAT International GHz Tiered Extragalactic Exploration (MIGHTEE) survey. Both GRGs were found within a…
Understanding the radio relic emission in the galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745: spectral analysis
K. Rajpurohit, D. Wittor, R. J. van Weeren +21
Radio relics are diffuse, extended synchrotron sources that originate from shock fronts generated during cluster mergers. The massive merging galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745 hosts…
The Coma cluster at LOFAR frequencies I: insights into particle acceleration mechanisms in the radio bridge
A. Bonafede, G. Brunetti, F. Vazza +18
Radio synchrotron emission from the bridges of low-density gas connecting galaxy clusters and groups is a challenge for particle acceleration processes. In this work, we analyse th…
The LOFAR Two Metre Sky Survey: Deep Fields Data Release 1 -- III. Host-galaxy identifications and value added catalogues
R. Kondapally, P. N. Best, M. J. Hardcastle +40
We present the source associations, cross-identifications, and multi-wavelength properties of the faint radio source population detected in the deep tier of the LOFAR Two Metre Sky…
Unveiling the rarest morphologies of the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey radio source population with self-organised maps
Rafaël I. J. Mostert, Kenneth J. Duncan, Huub J. A. Röttgering +11
The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) is a low-frequency radio continuum survey of the Northern sky at an unparalleled resolution and sensitivity. In order t…
