V-LoTSS: The Circularly-Polarised LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey

J. R. Callingham, T. W. Shimwell, H. K. Vedantham +44

We present the detection of 68 sources from the most sensitive radio survey in circular polarisation conducted to date. We use the second data release of the 144 MHz LOFAR Two-metr…

Using the polarization properties of double radio relics to probe the turbulent compression scenario

C. Stuardi, A. Bonafede, K. Rajpurohit +5

Radio relics are Mpc-size synchrotron sources located in the outskirts of some merging galaxy clusters. Binary-merging systems with favorable orientation may host two almost symmet…

Diffuse radio emission from non-Planck galaxy clusters in the LoTSS-DR2 fields

D. N. Hoang, M. Brüggen, A. Botteon +17

The presence of large-scale magnetic fields and ultra-relativistic electrons in the intra-cluster medium (ICM) is confirmed through the detection of diffuse radio synchrotron sourc…

Particle re-acceleration and diffuse radio sources in the galaxy cluster Abell 1550

T. Pasini, H. W. Edler, M. Brüggen +13

We study diffuse radio emission in the galaxy cluster A1550, with the aim of constraining particle re-acceleration in the intra-cluster medium. We exploit observations at four diff…

The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey -- V. Second data release

T. W. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle, C. Tasse +103

In this data release from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) we present 120-168MHz images covering 27% of the northern sky. Our coverage is split into two regions centred at ap…

The Planck clusters in the LOFAR sky. I. LoTSS-DR2: new detections and sample overview

A. Botteon, T. W. Shimwell, R. Cassano +23

Relativistic electrons and magnetic fields permeate the intra-cluster medium (ICM) and manifest themselves as diffuse sources of synchrotron emission observable at radio wavelength…
