Radio observations of the double-relic galaxy cluster Abell 1240
Radio observations of the double-relic galaxy cluster Abell 1240
We present LOFAR $120-168$ MHz images of the merging galaxy cluster Abell 1240 that hosts double radio relics. In combination with the GMRT $595-629$ MHz and VLA $2-4$ GHz data, we characterised the spectral and polarimetric properties of the radio emission. The spectral indices for the relics steepen from their …
