Scientific paper

Recent simulations suggest that shocks in clusters have a long-lasting impact on the energetics and temperature distribution of the cluster gas. As a result all clusters should contain diffuse and filamentary regions with non-thermal particles that predominantly radiate at extremely low radio frequencies. Here we propose XMM-Newton observations of the best candidate for such a long-lived shocked system, the 74 MHz radio source VLSS J1431.8+1331, located in a cluster at z=0.16. The aims of the observations are to characterize the dynamical state of the cluster and to relate density and temperature variations to the radio structure. This will allow us to study the evolution of the energy content of both the thermal and non-thermal gas in the cluster on extremely long timescales.
