A Multiwavelength Dynamical State Analysis of ACT-CL J0019.6+0336

Denisha S. Pillay, David J. Turner, Matt Hilton +8

In our study, we show a multiwavelength view of ACT-CL J0019.6+0336 (which hosts a radio halo), to investigate the cluster dynamics, morphology, and ICM. We use a combination of XM…

Turning AGN bubbles into radio relics with sloshing: modeling CR transport with realistic physics

John ZuHone, Kristian Ehlert, Rainer Weinberger +1

Radio relics are arc-like synchrotron sources at the periphery of galaxy clusters, produced by cosmic-ray electrons in a G magnetic field which are believed to have been (re-)ac…

EuCAPT White Paper: Opportunities and Challenges for Theoretical Astroparticle Physics in the Next Decade

R. Alves Batista, M. A. Amin, G. Barenboim +134

Astroparticle physics is undergoing a profound transformation, due to a series of extraordinary new results, such as the discovery of high-energy cosmic neutrinos with IceCube, the…

Two striking head-tail galaxies in the galaxy cluster IIZW108: insights into transition to turbulence, magnetic fields and particle re-acceleration

Ancla Müller, Christoph Pfrommer, Alessandro Ignesti +12

We present deep JVLA observations at 1.4 GHz and 2.7 GHz (full polarization), as well as optical OmegaWINGS/WINGS and X-ray observations of two extended radio galaxies in the IIZW1…

Gas flows in galaxy mergers: supersonic turbulence in bridges, accretion from the circumgalactic medium, and metallicity dilution

Martin Sparre, Joseph Whittingham, Mitali Damle +5

In major galaxy mergers, the orbits of stars are violently perturbed, and gas is torqued to the centre, diluting the gas metallicity and igniting a starburst. In this paper, we stu…

Spectrally resolved cosmic rays: II -- Momentum-dependent cosmic ray diffusion drives powerful galactic winds

Philipp Girichidis, Christoph Pfrommer, Rüdiger Pakmor +1

Recently, cosmic ray (CR) feedback has been identified as a critical process in galaxy formation but most previous simulations have integrated out the energy-dependence of the CR d…
