The Merging Galaxy Cluster A520 - A Broken-Up Cool Core, A Dark Subcluster, and an X-Ray Channel
TL;DR: In this article, a Chandra X-ray observation of a merging galaxy cluster A520 is presented, showing that thermal conductivity is suppressed by a factor greater than 100 across the presumed direction of the magnetic field (as found in other clusters).

CHANG-ES XII: A LOFAR and VLA view of the edge-on star-forming galaxy NGC 3556
Arpad Miskolczi,Volker Heesen,Cathy Horellou,Dominik J. Bomans,R. Beck,George Heald,R.-J. Dettmar,S. Blex,Błażej Nikiel-Wroczyński,Krzysztof T. Chyzy,Yelena Stein,Judith A. Irwin,Timothy W. Shimwell,Q. D. Wang +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, the radio spectral index, magnetic field strength, and orientation using VLA 1.5 and 6 GHz and LOFAR 144 MHz data were mapped using SPINNAKER (Spectral Index Numerical Analysis of K(c)osmic-ray electron radio emission) and its interactive wrapper SPINTERACTIVE.
CHANG-ES. XXI. Transport processes and the X-shaped magnetic field of NGC 4217: off-center superbubble structure
Y. Stein,Y. Stein,R.-J. Dettmar,Rainer Beck,Judith Irwin,Theresa Wiegert,Arpad Miskolczi,Q. D. Wang,Jayanne English,Richard N. Henriksen,Michael Radica,Jiang-Tao Li +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the radio spectrum properties of the edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 4217 using CHANG-ES radio data at two frequencies, 6 GHz (C -band) and 1.5 GHz (L -band), and supplemental LOFAR data at 150 MHz.
Bow shock in merging cluster A520: the edge of the radio halo and the electron-ion equilibration timescale
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the prominent bow shock in the merging galaxy cluster A520 using a deep Chandra X-ray observation and archival VLA radio data, and they measured a Mach number of $M=2.4
