Fast and "lossless" propagation of relativistic electrons along magnetized non-thermal filaments in galaxy clusters and the Galactic Center region
Eugene Churazov, Lawrence Rudnick, Ildar Khabibullin +3
Relativistic leptons in galaxy clusters lose their energy via radiation (synchrotron and inverse Compton losses) and interactions with the ambient plasma. At z~0, pure radiative lo…
Revealing the intricacies of radio galaxies and filaments in the merging galaxy cluster Abell 2255. I. Insights from deep LOFAR-VLBI sub-arcsecond resolution images
E. De Rubeis, M. Bondi, A. Botteon +7
High sensitivity of modern interferometers is revealing a plethora of filaments surrounding radio galaxies, especially in galaxy cluster environments. The morphology and spectral c…
Multi-frequency Radio Observations of the Dissociative Cluster Merger CIZA J0107.7+5408
Emma Schwartzman, Tracy Clarke, Simona Giacintucci +9
We present new radio observations of the galaxy cluster merger CIZA J0107.7+5408 (CIZA0107), a large, roughly equal mass, post-core passage, dissociative binary system at z = 0.106…
Probing cluster magnetism with embedded and background radio sources in Planck clusters
Erik Osinga, Reinout J. van Weeren, Lawrence Rudnick +6
Magnetic fields remain an enigmatic part of the content of galaxy clusters. Faraday rotation and depolarisation of extragalactic radio sources are useful probes, but the limited av…
