Unique Science from a Coordinated LSST-WFIRST Survey of the Galactic Bulge
R. A. Street, M. B. Lund, M. Donachie +19
NASA's WFIRST mission will perform a wide-field, NIR survey of the Galactic Bulge to search for exoplanets via the microlensing techniques. As the mission is due to launch in the m…
The Diverse Science Return from a Wide-Area Survey of the Galactic Plane
R. A. Street, M. B. Lund, S. Khakpash +19
The overwhelming majority of objects visible to LSST lie within the Galactic Plane. Though many previous surveys have avoided this region for fear of stellar crowding, LSST's spati…
Multi-wavelength Analysis of the Merging Galaxy Cluster A115
Mincheol Kim, M. James Jee, Kyle Finner +4
A115 is a merging galaxy cluster at with a number of remarkable features including a giant ( Mpc) radio relic, two asymmetric X-ray peaks with trailing tails, a…
Brightest Cluster Galaxy Alignments in Merging Clusters
David Wittman, Drake Foote, Nathan Golovich
The orientations of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) and their host clusters tend to be aligned, but the mechanism driving this is not clear. To probe the role of cluster mergers…
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…
Merging Cluster Collaboration: A Panchromatic Atlas of Radio Relic Mergers
Nathan Golovich, William A. Dawson, David M. Wittman +13
Golovich et al. 2017b presents an optical imaging and spectroscopic survey of 29 radio relic merging galaxy clusters. In this paper, we study this survey to identify substructure a…
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…
