Deep VLA observations of the cluster 1RXS J0603.3+4214 in the frequency range 1-2 GHz

K. Rajpurohit, M. Hoeft, R. J. van Weeren +11

We report L-band VLA observations of 1RXS J0603.3+4214, a cluster that hosts a bright radio relic, known as the Toothbrush, and an elongated giant radio halo. These new observation…

Recovering galaxy cluster gas density profiles with XMM-Newton and Chandra

I. Bartalucci, M. Arnaud, G. W. Pratt +6

We examine the reconstruction of galaxy cluster radial density profiles obtained from Chandra and XMM X-ray observations, using high quality data for a sample of twelve objects cov…

VLA Radio Observations of the HST Frontier Fields Cluster Abell 2744: The Discovery of New Radio Relics

C. J. J. Pearce, R. J. van Weeren, F. Andrade-Santos +12

Cluster mergers leave distinct signatures in the ICM in the form of shocks and diffuse cluster radio sources that provide evidence for the acceleration of relativistic particles. H…

Pressure profiles of distant galaxy clusters in the Planck catalog

H. Bourdin, P. Mazzotta, A. Kozmanyan +2

Successive releases of Planck data have demonstrated the strength of the Sunyaev--Zeldovich (SZ) effect in detecting hot baryons out to the galaxy cluster peripheries. To infer the…

The Infall of the Virgo Elliptical Galaxy M60 toward M87 and the Gaseous Structures Produced by Kelvin-Helmholtz Instabilities

R. A. Wood, C. Jones, M. E. Machacek +6

We present Chandra observations of hot gas structures, characteristic of gas stripping during infall, in the Virgo cluster elliptical galaxy M60 (NGC4649) located Mpc east of M…
