Primary Beam Calibration for Commensal Telescopes Utilizing Offset Optics
Emil Polisensky, Tracy E. Clarke, Simona Giacintucci +1
Accurate primary beam calibration is essential for precise brightness measurements in radio astronomy. The VLA Low-band Ionosphere and Transient Experiment (VLITE) faces challenges…
Multi-frequency Radio Observations of the Dissociative Cluster Merger CIZA J0107.7+5408
Emma Schwartzman, Tracy Clarke, Simona Giacintucci +9
We present new radio observations of the galaxy cluster merger CIZA J0107.7+5408 (CIZA0107), a large, roughly equal mass, post-core passage, dissociative binary system at z = 0.106…
Probing the high frequency variability of NGC 5044: the key to AGN feedback
Gerrit Schellenberger, Ewan O'Sullivan, Laurence David +10
The active galactic nucleus (AGN) feeding and feedback process in the centers of galaxy clusters and groups is still not well understood. NGC 5044 is the ideal system in which to s…
The radio halo in PLCKESZ G171.94 40.65: Beacon of merging activity
Ramananda Santra, Ruta Kale, Simona Giacintucci +6
We present the first multi-frequency analysis of the candidate ultra-steep spectrum radio halo in the galaxy cluster PLCKESZ G171.9440.65, using the upgraded Giant Metrewave Rad…
The Multi-Epoch Jet Outbursts in Abell 496: synchrotron ageing and buoyant X-ray cavities draped by warm gas filaments
Francesco Ubertosi, Simona Giacintucci, Tracy Clarke +4
The galaxy cluster Abell 496 has been extensively studied in the past for the clear sloshing motion of the hot gas on large scales, but the interplay between the central radio gala…
PSZ2 G282.28+49.94, a recently discovered analogue of the famous Bullet Cluster
I. Bartalucci, M. Rossetti, W. Boschin +17
We present a detailed study of the gas and galaxy properties of the cluster PSZ2 G282.28+49.94 detected in the Planck all-sky survey. The intracluster medium (ICM) of this object a…
