Understanding the radio relic emission in the galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745: Spectral analysis
Understanding the radio relic emission in the galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745: Spectral analysis
Radio relics are diffuse, extended synchrotron sources that originate from shock fronts generated during cluster mergers. The massive merging galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745 hosts one of the more complex relics known to date. We present upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope band 3 (300−500 MHz) and band 4 (550−850 MHz) observations. …
