We present high-resolution, high-sensitivity upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope observations of the Coma cluster (A1656) at 250-500 MHz and 550-850 MHz. At 250-500 MHz, 135 sources have extensions $>$ 0.45 arcmin (with…

Context: The clusters Abell 3017 and Abell 3016 are located within a large-scale filament. A prominent X-ray bridge has been detected connecting the two clusters and a potential galaxy group between them. Aims: The aim of this work is to…

Among the bent tail radio galaxies common in galaxy clusters are some with long, collimated tails (so-called head-tail galaxies) shaped by their interactions with the intracluster medium (ICM). Here we report the discovery of intricate…

Diffuse radio sources known as radio relics are direct tracers of shocks in the outskirts of merging galaxy clusters. PSZ2 G200.95-28.16, a low-mass merging cluster($\textrm{M}_{500} = (2.7 \pm 0.2) \times 10^{14}~\mathrm{M}_{\odot}$)…

We report the discovery of two new giant radio galaxies (GRGs) using the MeerKAT International GHz Tiered Extragalactic Exploration (MIGHTEE) survey. Both GRGs were found within a 1 deg^2 region inside the COSMOS field. They have redshifts…

In this Letter, we report the discovery of a radio halo in the high-redshift galaxy cluster PSZ2 G099.86+58.45 ($z=0.616$) with the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) at 120-168 MHz. This is one of the most distant radio halos discovered so far.…

We investigated the detailed radio structure of the jet of 1H 0323+342 using high-resolution multi-frequency Very Long Baseline Array observations. This source is known as the nearest $\gamma$-ray emitting radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1…

We have found a peculiar radio source in the field of one of the hottest known clusters of galaxies 1E0657-56. It is slightly extended, highly polarised (54% at 8.8GHz) and has a very steep spectrum, with alpha ~ -1 at 1.3 GHz, steepening…
