The Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (WENSS) and the NRAO/VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) were used to determine an upper limit to the diffuse radio flux from the nearby cluster Abell 2199. For the entire cluster, this limit is <3.25 Jy at 327 MHz from…

It has recently been suggested that conduction-driven magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities may operate at all radii within an intracluster medium (ICM), and profoundly affect the structure of a cluster's magnetic field. Where MHD…

Using the linearly polarized intensity and polarization angle data at 3.6, 6.2 and 20 cm, we determine variations of Faraday rotation and depolarization across the nearby galaxy M33. A 3-D model of the regular magnetic field is fitted to…
