Scientific paper

The existence of the MHD shocks in the intracluster medium (ICM) is well evidenced by the radio halos in some clusters of galaxies. Among the possible sources of the ICM MHD shocks, merging of galaxy clusters is under consideration in this paper. The roles of the MHD shocks that were generated via this merging events, are investigated in relation to the topics such as a correlation of the radio halos to the X-ray properties, production of relativistic particles, the ICM magnetic-field amplifications, particle accelerations. The author proposes that radio halos were formed in cluster mergers.
