Investigating the mixing between two black hole populations in LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA GWTC-3

Ming-Feng Ho, Scott Ellis Perkins, Simeon Bird +4

We introduce a population model to analyze the mixing between hypothesised power-law and Gaussian bump black hole populations in the latest gravitational wave cat…

Chandra Observations of the Spectacular A3411-12 Merger Event

Felipe Andrade-Santos, Reinout J. van Weeren, Gabriella Di Gennaro +17

We present deep Chandra observations of A3411-12, a remarkable merging cluster that hosts the most compelling evidence for electron re-acceleration at cluster shocks to date. Using…

Radio observations of the double-relic galaxy cluster Abell 1240

D. N. Hoang, T. W. Shimwell, R. J. van Weeren +16

We present LOFAR MHz images of the merging galaxy cluster Abell 1240 that hosts double radio relics. In combination with the GMRT MHz and VLA GHz data, we…

The Case for Electron Re-Acceleration at Galaxy Cluster Shocks

Reinout J. van Weeren, Felipe Andrade-Santos, William A. Dawson +16

On the largest scales, the Universe consists of voids and filaments making up the cosmic web. Galaxy clusters are located at the knots in this web, at the intersection of filaments…
