A low-frequency radio halo associated with a cluster of galaxies
G. Brunetti, S. Giacintucci, R. Cassano +7
Clusters of galaxies are the largest gravitationally bound objects in the Universe, containing about 10^15 solar masses of hot (10^8 K) gas, galaxies and dark matter in a typical v…
A GMRT multifrequency radio study of the isothermal core of the poor galaxy cluster AWM 4
S. Giacintucci, J. M. Vrtilek, M. Murgia +7
We present a detailed radio morphological study and spectral analysis of the wide-angle-tail radio source 4C +24.36 associated with the dominant galaxy in the relaxed galaxy cluste…
Shock acceleration as origin of the radio relic in A521?
S. Giacintucci, T. Venturi, G. Macario +6
We present new high sensitivity observations of the radio relic in A521 carried out with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope at 327 MHz and with the Very Large Array at 4.9 and 8.5…
GMRT Radio Halo Survey in galaxy clusters at z = 0.2 -- 0.4. II.The eBCS clusters and analysis of the complete sample
T. Venturi, S. Giacintucci, D. Dallacasa +4
We present the results of the GMRT cluster radio halo survey. The main purposes of our observational project are to measure which fraction of massive galaxy clusters in the redshif…
Revised statistics of radio halos and the re-acceleration model
R. Cassano, G. Brunetti, T. Venturi +4
Aims. The statistical properties of radio halos can be used to discriminate among the possible models for their origin. Therefore an unbiased and exhaustive investigation in this d…
Radio morphology and spectral analysis of cD galaxies in rich and poor galaxy clusters
S. Giacintucci, T. Venturi, M. Murgia +5
We present a radio morphological study and spectral analysis for a sample of 13 cD galaxies in rich and poor clusters of galaxies.} Our study is based on new high sensitivity Giant…
