- W2035587219 abstract "Chandra observations of the merging galaxy cluster A520 reveal a prominent bow shock with M = 2.1. This is only the second clear example of a substantially supersonic merger shock front in clusters. Comparison of the X-ray image with that of the previously known radio halo reveals a coincidence of the leading edge of the halo with the bow shock, offering an interesting experimental setup for determining the role of shocks in the radio halo generation. The halo in A520 apparently consists of two spatially distinct parts, the main turbulence-driven component and a cap-like forward structure related to the shock, where the latter may provide preenergized electrons for subsequent turbulent reacceleration. The radio edge may be caused by electron acceleration by the shock. If so, the synchrotron spectrum should have a slope of α ≃ 1.2 right behind the edge, with quick steepening farther away from the edge. Alternatively, if shocks are inefficient accelerators, the radio edge may be explained by an increase in the magnetic field and density of preexisting relativistic electrons due to gas compression. In the latter model, there should be radio emission in front of the shock with the same spectrum as that behind it, but 10-20 times fainter. If future sensitive radio measurements do not find such preshock emission, then the electrons are indeed accelerated (or reaccelerated) by the shock, and one will be able to determine its acceleration efficiency. We also propose a method to estimate the magnetic field strength behind the shock, based on measuring the dependence of the radio spectral slope upon the distance from the shock. In addition, the radio edge provides a way to constrain the diffusion speed of the relativistic electrons." @default.
