Out today: The Coma cluster at @LOFAR frequencies II: the halo, relic, and a new accretion relic led by @AnnalisBonafede with @fradega @roxycas @and_botteon @CStuardi @fabiogasta @cjriseley @marisa_brienza @mcrossetti_twit et al. arxiv.org/abs/2203.01958

‼️The @Planck clusters in the @LOFAR sky‼️ This is a huge project where we used 309 (!!) PSZ2 clusters to study diffuse radio sources in the ICM (halos and relics). Paper I (accepted in @AandA_journal) -> arxiv.org/abs/2202.11720 Project website -> lofar-surveys.org/planck_dr2… 1/13

Il telescopio spaziale tedesco @eROSITA_SRG a bordo della missione russo-tedesca #Spektr-RG è stato messo in 'safe mode' in attesa di sviluppi. #UkraineRussiaWar lascerà un segno indelebile anche nella mappa del cielo nei raggi X.

An international team of astronomers has produced a map of the sky at ultra-low radio frequencies using @LOFAR, revealing more than 25,000 active supermassive black holes in distant galaxies. bit.ly/3awD9Yg

high-redshift radio halos can be used to constrain magnetic field amplification in high-z galaxy clusters... on Nature Astronomy
Usando l’array di antenne @LOFAR, un team guidato da Gabriella Di Gennaro di @UniLeiden – del quale fanno parte anche ricercatori #INAF e #UNIBO – è riuscito a individuare e mappare gigantesche collisioni tra ammassi di galassie media.inaf.it/2020/11/02/sco…

The MeerKAT radio telescope has discovered two giant gas bubbles above and below the centre of the Milky Way. The bubbles could have been formed by the near-simultaneous formation and fiery death of roughly 100 large stars. go.nature.com/2ZYoRv0
