We have undertaken a systematic search for diffuse radio halos and relics in all of the Abell clusters that are visible in the Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (WENSS). In this survey we found 18 candidates, 11 of which are already known from…

We study the radial total mass profiles of nine massive galaxy clusters ($M_\mathrm{200c}>5\times10^{14}$ M$_\odot$) in the redshift range $0.2 < z < 0.9$. These clusters were observed as part of the CLASH, HFF, BUFFALO, and CLASH-VLT…

We study a sample of 19 galaxy clusters in the redshift range $0.15<z<0.30$ with highly complete spectroscopic membership catalogues (to $K < K^{\ast}(\rm z)+1.5$) from the Arizona Cluster Redshift Survey (ACReS); individual weak-lensing…

We investigate dipole asymmetries in four large radio surveys, each spanning more than 80\% of the sky. Two of them, the Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS) and the Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS), have recently yielded dipoles that…

Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the FIRST (Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty Centimeters) catalogs, we examined the optical environments around double-lobed radio sources. Previous studies have shown that multi-component…

We study synergies between three promising methods to measure $2<z<5$ large-scale structure in the next decade. Optical spectroscopic surveys are the most mature, but become increasingly difficult at $z>2$ and suffer from interloper…

An analysis of the cluster environments around distant radio galaxies is presented, in particular the results from new NTT deep optical-IR imaging of the fields of radio sources at z ~ 1.6. A net overdensity of K-band galaxies is found,…

Low-frequency radio observations of galaxy clusters are the key to detecting the diffuse extended emission associated with them. The presence and properties of such radio sources in galaxy clusters reveal the existence of magnetic fields on…

We present new redshifts and positions for 635 galaxies in nine rich clusters containing Wide-Angle Tailed (WAT) radio galaxies. Combined with existing data, we now have a sample of 18 WAT-containing clusters with more than 10 redshifts.…

The Combined EIS-NVSS Survey Of Radio Sources (CENSORS) is a 1.4GHz radio survey selected from the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) and complete to a flux-density of 7.2mJy. It targets the ESO Imaging Survey (EIS) Patch D, which is a 3 by 2…

A joint analysis of the clustering of galaxies and their weak gravitational lensing signal is well-suited to simultaneously constrain the galaxy-halo connection as well as the cosmological parameters by breaking the degeneracy between…

The thermal and non-thermal components in galaxy clusters have properties that, although shaped from different physical phenomena, can share some similarities, mainly driven by their halo mass and the accretion processes. Scaling relations…

We analyze optical and radio properties of radiogalaxies detected in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The sample of radio sources are selected from the catalogue of Kimball & Ivezi\'c (2008) with flux densities at 325, 1400 and 4850…

Non-thermal properties of galaxy clusters have been studied with detailed and deep radio images in comparison with X-ray data. While much progress has been made, most of the studied clusters are at a relatively low redshift (z < 0.3). We…
