EVIDENCE FOR PARTICLE RE-ACCELERATION IN THE RADIO RELIC IN THE GALAXY CLUSTER PLCKG287.0+32.9
2014
Astrophysical Journal
Radio relics are diffuse radio sources observed in galaxy clusters, probably produced by shock acceleration during cluster-cluster mergers. Their large size, of the order of 1 Mpc, indicates that the emitting electrons need to be (re)accelerated locally. The usually invoked Diffusive Shock Acceleration models have been challenged by recent observations and theory. We report the discovery of complex radio emission in the Galaxy cluster PLCKG287.0 +32.9, which hosts two relics, a radio halo, and
