Diffuse radio emission in the Coma cluster

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The Coma cluster is peculiar in the radio domain owing to the presence of cluster-wide diffuse sources: the radio halo Coma C, the relic source 1253+275, and the bridge between them. Diffuse radio sources in clusters are a rare and poorly understood phenomenon. We summarize here the properties of the diffuse radio sources in Coma and their relation to other cluster properties.
