We study the distribution of projected offsets between the cluster X-ray centroid and the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) for 65 X-ray selected clusters from the Local Cluster Substructure Survey (LoCuSS), with a median redshift of z=0.23.…
This paper presents results of a spectroscopic analysis of the X-CLASS-redMaPPer (XC1-RM) galaxy cluster sample. X-CLASS is a serendipitous search for clusters in the X-ray wavebands based on the XMM-Newton archive, whereas redMaPPer is an…
Cool cores of some galaxy clusters exhibit faint radio "minihalos." Their origin is unclear; their study has been limited by their small number. We undertook a systematic search for minihalos in a large sample of X-ray luminous clusters…
The radio counterparts to the 15-micron sources in the European Large Area ISO Survey southern fields are identified in 1.4-GHz maps down to about 80 microJy. The radio-MIR correlation is investigated and derived for the first time at these…
This paper investigates the clustering properties of a complete sample of 1041 24um-selected sources brighter than F[24um]=400 uJy in the overlapping region between the SWIRE and UKIDSS UDS surveys. We have concentrated on the two…
The study of soft X-ray emission of 38 X-ray selected galaxy clusters observed by ROSAT PSPC indicates that the soft excess phenomenon may be a common occurrence in galaxy clusters. Excess soft X-ray radiation, above the contribution from…
Low-frequency radio observations are revealing an increasing number of diffuse synchrotron sources from galaxy clusters, dominantly in the form of radio halos or radio relics. The existence of this diffuse synchrotron emission indicates the…
The features and make up of the population of X-ray sources in Galactic star clusters reflect the properties of the underlying stellar environment. Cluster age, mass, stellar encounter rate, binary frequency, metallicity, and maybe other…
Only a small fraction of galactic nuclei in the nearby universe are luminous; most of them are currently dim. We investigate the feasibility of constraining the X-ray luminosity in the recent past (up to ~10^6 years ago) of the nucleus of a…
We present high resolution ROSAT x-ray and radio observations of three cooling flow clusters containing steep spectrum radio sources at their cores. All three systems exhibit strong signs of interaction between the radio plasma and the hot…
We study the angular clustering of $\sim 6\times 10^5$ NVSS sources on scales $\gtrsim 50 h^{-1}$ Mpc in the context of the $\Lambda$CDM scenario. The analysis partially relies on the redshift distribution of 131 radio galaxies, inferred…
Extra-galactic radio sources are a significant contaminant in cosmic microwave background and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect experiments. Deep interferometric observations with the BIMA and OVRO arrays are used to characterize the spatial,…
The comparison of the properties of galaxy cluster samples selected using observations in different wavebands may shed light on potential biases of the way in which the samples are assembled. For this comparison, we introduce a new…
Context. Abell 1213, a low-richness galaxy system, is known to host an anomalous radio halo detected in data of the VLA. It is an outlier with regard to the relation between the radio halo power and the X-ray luminosity of the parent…
We present results from ASCA and ROSAT HRI observations of the powerful radio galaxy 4C+55.16 at redshift 0.24. Extended soft X-ray emission is imaged by the ROSAT HRI. The X-ray brightness profile is sharply peaked on the radio galaxy,…
Context. The XXL Survey is the largest survey carried out by the XMM-Newton satellite and covers a total area of 50 square degrees distributed over two fields. It primarily aims at investigating the large-scale structures of the Universe…
The X-ray emission in many clusters of galaxies shows a central peak in surface brightness coincident with a drop in temperature. These characterize a cooling flow. There is often a radio source also at the centre of such regions. Data from…
We investigate the relationship between faint X-ray and 1.4 GHz radio source populations detected within 3' of the Hubble Deep Field North using the 1 Ms Chandra and 40 uJy VLA surveys. Within this region, we find that ~42% of the 62 X-ray…
With the superb angular resolution of the Chandra Observatory, it is now possible to detect X-ray point sources, either embedded in galaxy clusters or along the cluster line of sight, which could not be resolved by previous instruments.…
A significant fraction of galaxy clusters exhibits cluster wide radio halos. We give a simple prediction of the local and higher redshift radio halo luminosity function (RHLF) on the basis of (i) an observed and a theoretical X-ray cluster…
