Crossing the veil of the brightest radio relic in the sky MACS J0717.6+3745
A. Pasetto, O. Vilchis, A. Bonafede +3
We present high-frequency, full-polarisation Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) radio data at X-band of the radio relic: MACS J0717.5+3745. Radio relics trace shock waves in the intracl…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) Community Science Book
Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
PSZ2 G181.06+48.47 I: X-ray exploration of a low-mass cluster with exceptionally-distant radio relics
Andra Stroe, Kamlesh Rajpurohit, Zhenlin Zhu +13
Relics are diffuse, highly-polarized radio sources that trace merger-driven shocks at the periphery of merging galaxy clusters. The LOFAR survey recently discovered a rare example…
Probing particle acceleration in Abell 2256: from to 16 MHz to gamma rays
E. Osinga, R. J. van Weeren, G. Brunetti +9
Merging galaxy clusters often host spectacular diffuse radio synchrotron sources. These sources can be explained by a non-thermal pool of relativistic electrons accelerated by shoc…
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…
A MeerKAT-meets-LOFAR Study of MS 1455.0+2232: A 590 kiloparsec 'Mini'-Halo in a Sloshing Cool-Core Cluster
C. J. Riseley, K. Rajpurohit, F. Loi +13
Radio mini-haloes are poorly-understood, moderately-extended diffuse radio sources that trace the presence of magnetic fields and relativistic electrons on scales of hundreds of ki…
VLA Radio Study of a Sample of Nearby X-ray and Optically Bright Early-Type Galaxies
Romana Grossová, Norbert Werner, Francesco Massaro +9
Many massive early-type galaxies host central radio sources and hot X-ray atmospheres indicating the presence of radio-mechanical active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback. The duty c…
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.…
Morphology of radio relics II: Properties of polarised emission
P. Domínguez-Fernández, M. Brüggen, F. Vazza +7
Radio relics are diffuse radio sources in galaxy clusters that are associated with merger shock waves. Detailed observations of radio relics in total intensity and in polarisation…
A 3.5 Mpc-long radio relic in the galaxy cluster ClG 0217+70
D. N. Hoang, X. Zhang, C. Stuardi +14
Mega-parsec scale radio sources in the form of halos and relics are often detected in dynamically disturbed galaxy clusters. Although they are associated with merger-induced turbul…
Morphology of radio relics I: What causes the substructure of synchrotron emission?
P. Domínguez-Fernández, M. Brüggen, F. Vazza +5
High-resolution radio observations of cluster radio relics often show complex spatial and spectral features. However, it is not clear what these features reveal about the underlyin…
Discovering the most elusive radio relic in the sky: Diffuse Shock Acceleration caught in the act?
Nicola T. Locatelli, Kamlesh Rajpurohit, Franco Vazza +9
The origin of radio relics is usually explained via diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) or re-acceleration of electrons at/from merger shocks in galaxy clusters. The case of acceler…
New mysteries and challenges from the Toothbrush relic: wideband observations from 550 MHz to 8 GHz
K. Rajpurohit, M. Hoeft, F. Vazza +10
Radio relics are diffuse extended synchrotron sources that originate from shock fronts induced by galaxy cluster mergers. The actual particle acceleration mechanism at the shock fr…
