Combined Radio/X-ray Study of Galaxy Clusters
PI: Thomas Reiprich and Marcus Brueggen
We propose to study the radio properties of X-ray selected galaxy clusters. This includes studies
of radio haloes, radio relics, tailed radio galaxies, as well as cluster central radio AGN and their
correlation with morphological X-ray parameters. The X-ray and radio views of galaxy clusters
are highly complementary, tracing the hot thermal and relativistic particle populations,
respectively.
