Modelling the Energy Spectra of Radio Relics
Denis Wittor, Matthias Hoeft, Marcus Brüggen
Radio relics are diffuse synchrotron sources that illuminate shock waves in the intracluster medium. In recent years, radio telescopes have provided detailed observations about rel…
Magnetogenesis and the Cosmic Web: a joint challenge for radio observations and numerical simulations
Franco Vazza, Nicola Locatelli, Kamlesh Rajpurohit +16
The detection of the radio signal from filaments in the cosmic web is crucial to distinguish possible magnetogenesis scenarios. We review the status of the different attempts to de…
MeerKAT view of the diffuse radio sources in Abell 3667 and their interactions with the thermal plasma
F. de Gasperin, L. Rudnick, A. Finoguenov +11
During their lifetime, galaxy clusters grow through the accretion of matter from the filaments of the large scale structure and from mergers with other clusters. These mergers rele…
Deep low-frequency radio observations of Abell 2256 I: The filamentary radio relic
K. Rajpurohit, R. J. van Weeren, M. Hoeft +22
We present deep and high fidelity images of the merging galaxy cluster Abell 2256 at low frequencies, using the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) and LOw-Frequency A…
Turbulent magnetic fields in the merging galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745: polarization analysis
K. Rajpurohit, M. Hoeft, D. Wittor +20
We present wideband polarimetric observations, obtained with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA), of the merging galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745, which hosts one of the most…
Radio relics radio emission from multi-shock scenario
Giannandrea Inchingolo, Denis Wittor, Kamlesh Rajpurohit +1
Radio relics are giant (Mpc) synchrotron sources that are believed to be produced by the (re)acceleration of cosmic-ray electrons (CRe) by shocks in the intracluster medium.…
