LOFAR discovery and wide-band characterisation of an ultra-steep spectrum AGN radio remnant associated with Abell 1318

A. Shulevski, M. Brienza, F. Massaro +15

We present the discovery of a very extended (550 kpc) and low-surface-brightness ( at 144 MHz) radio emission region in Abell 1318. These propert…

Weak-Lensing Analysis of the Complex Cluster Merger Abell 746 with Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam

Kim HyeongHan, Hyejeon Cho, M. James Jee +15

The galaxy cluster Abell 746 (A746; =0.214), featuring a double radio relic system, two isolated radio relics, a possible radio halo, disturbed V-shaped X-ray emission, and intr…

Abell 746: A highly disturbed cluster undergoing multiple mergers

K. Rajpurohit, L. Lovisari, A. Botteon +21

We present deep XMM-Newton, Karl Jansky Very Large Array, and upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope observations of Abell 746, a cluster that hosts a plethora of diffuse emissio…

A MeerKAT-meets-LOFAR study of Abell 1413: a moderately disturbed non-cool-core cluster hosting a kpc 'mini'-halo

C. J. Riseley, N. Biava, G. Lusetti +12

Many relaxed cool-core clusters host diffuse radio emission on scales of hundreds of kiloparsecs: mini-haloes. However, the mechanism responsible for generating them, as well as th…

New filamentary remnant radio emission and duty cycle constraints in the radio galaxy NGC 6086

S. Candini, M. Brienza, A. Bonafede +6

Radio galaxies are a subclass of active galactic nuclei in which accretion onto the supermassive black hole releases energy via relativistic jets. The jets are not constantly activ…

Radio continuum tails in ram pressure-stripped spiral galaxies: experimenting with a semi-empirical model in Abell 2255

A. Ignesti, B. Vulcani, A. Botteon +7

Wide-field radio continuum observations of galaxy clusters are revealing an increasing number of spiral galaxies hosting tens of kpc-long radio tails produced by the nonthermal int…

AGN feedback in an infant galaxy cluster: the LOFAR-Chandra view of the giant FRII radio galaxy J103025+052430 at z=1.7

M. Brienza, R. Gilli, I. Prandoni +19

In the nearby universe jets from AGN are observed to have a dramatic impact on their surrounding extragalactic environment. Their effect at the `cosmic noon' (z>1.5), the epoch whe…

The Planck clusters in the LOFAR sky VI. LoTSS-DR2: Properties of radio relics

A. Jones, F. de Gasperin, V. Cuciti +19

Context. It is well-established that shock waves in the intracluster medium launched by galaxy cluster mergers can produce synchrotron emission, which is visible to us at radio fre…
