A13_Relic, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02002701
Scientific paper
We propose to observe the two Abell clusters of galaxies A13 and A4038 in which we have identified filamentary radio relic sources. Sensitive XMM-Newton EPIC observations will allow us to detect an excess thermal X-ray emission component that may result from hydrodynamical activities associated with the relic structure as well as inverse Compton emission produced when the same relativistic electrons which produce the radio relic emission scatter Cosmic Microwave Background photons. These radiation components will be detected by XMM-Newton spatially, by finding X-ray structures which agree with the radio structures, and spectroscopically by the additional spectral features mixed with the thermal emission of the intracluster medium.
