Radio relics in galaxy clusters are extended synchrotron sources produced by cosmic-ray electrons in the $\mu$G magnetic field. Many relics are found in the cluster periphery and have a cluster-centric, narrow arc-like shape, which suggests…

Radio emission in the direction of galaxy clusters is due to the individual emission of AGNs, and to the diffuse non-thermal emission of the intracluster medium (ICM). The population of AGNs in clusters is correlated to the overall halo…

Without AGN feedback, simulated massive, star-forming galaxies become too compact relative to observed galaxies at z<2. In this paper, we perform high-resolution re-simulations of a massive (M_star~10^11 M_sol) galaxy at z~2.3, drawn from…

A comprehensive study of the effect of the cluster environment on the far- infrared (FIR)/radio correlation in nearby Abell clusters is presented. Using the cluster radio galaxy database from Miller & Owen (2001) and optical spectroscopy…
