Ultra-steep spectrum emission in the merging galaxy cluster Abell 1914

S. Mandal, H. T. Intema, T. W. Shimwell +14

A number of radio observations have revealed the presence of large synchrotron-emitting sources associated with the intra-cluster medium. There is strong observational evidence tha…

Radio observations of the merging galaxy cluster Abell 520

D. N. Hoang, T. W. Shimwell, R. J. van Weeren +13

We examine the possible acceleration mechanisms of the relativistic particles responsible for the extended radio emission in Abell 520. We used new LOFAR 145 MHz, archival GMRT 323…

Characterizing the radio emission from the binary galaxy cluster merger Abell 2146

D. N. Hoang, T. W. Shimwell, R. J. van Weeren +8

Collisions of galaxy clusters generate shocks and turbulence in the intra-cluster medium (ICM). The presence of relativistic particles and magnetic fields is inferred through the d…

The spectacular cluster chain Abell 781 as observed with LOFAR, GMRT, and XMM-Newton

A. Botteon, T. W. Shimwell, A. Bonafede +20

A number of merging galaxy clusters show the presence of large-scale radio emission associated with the intra-cluster medium (ICM). These synchrotron sources are generally classifi…

Deep Very Large Array observations of the merging cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301: continuum and spectral imaging

G. Di Gennaro, R. J. van Weeren, M. Hoeft +14

Despite progress in understanding radio relics, there are still open questions regarding the underlying particle acceleration mechanisms. In this paper we present deep 1--4 GHz VLA…

VIS3COS: I. survey overview and the role of environment and stellar mass on star formation

Ana Paulino-Afonso, David Sobral, Behnam Darvish +5

We present the VIMOS Spectroscopic Survey of a Supercluster in the COSMOS field (VIS3COS) at z~0.84. We use VIMOS high-resolution spectra (GG475 filter) to spectroscopically select…
