Multiple shock fronts in RBS 797: the Chandra window on shock heating in galaxy clusters

F. Ubertosi, M. Gitti, F. Brighenti +11

Using 427 ks of Chandra observations, we present a study of shock heating and ICM cooling in the galaxy cluster RBS 797. We discover three nested pairs of weak shocks at roug…

Puzzling large-scale polarization in the galaxy cluster Abell 523

Valentina Vacca, Federica Govoni, Matteo Murgia +13

Large-scale magnetic fields reveal themselves through diffuse synchrotron sources observed in galaxy clusters such as radio halos. Total intensity filaments of these sources have b…

The thermal and non-thermal components within and between galaxy clusters Abell 399 and Abell 401

Federico Radiconi, Valentina Vacca, Elia Battistelli +28

We measure the local correlation between radio emission and Compton- signal across two galaxy clusters, Abell~399 and Abell~401, using maps from the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR)…

The Coma cluster at LOFAR frequencies II: the halo, relic, and a new accretion relic

A. Bonafede, G. Brunetti, L. Rudnick +26

We present LOw Frequency ARray observations of the Coma cluster field at 144\,MHz. The cluster hosts one of the most famous radio halos, a relic, and a low surface-brightness bridg…

Spectral study of the diffuse synchrotron source in the galaxy cluster Abell 523

Valentina Vacca, Timothy Shimwell, Richard A. Perley +26

The galaxy cluster Abell 523 (A523) hosts an extended diffuse synchrotron source historically classified as a radio halo. Its radio power at 1.4 GHz makes it one of the most signif…
