The cluster environment of Abell 3667

Abstract:

Abell 3667 is a rich X-ray luminous southern cluster of galaxies at a redshift of 0.055. The properties of this cluster suggest that it is probably in a post-merger state. Recent radio observations taken with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) have allowed a detailed investigation of the environment in this cluster. We present here a synopsis of these observations.

The early days of a radio source

ASTR SOC P 250 (2002) 404-407

Authors:

D Dallacasa, C Stanghellini

Abstract:

We present a sample of bright compact sources with peaked radio spectra. The sample is likely to contain a mixture of a number of very young radio sources and some beamed objects whose radio emission is dominated by a single component. Flux density Variability is common among these sources, which we call "High Frequency Peakers" (HFPs).
