Abell 2256 - Observing a Mpc(3) nonthermal laboratory
The galaxy cluster Abell 2256 is in the violent stage of a giant cluster merger event. Evidence of this merger is seen in the X-ray substructure of ROSAT images (Briel et al. 1991). Radio images reveal the complex nature of this cluster: a synchrotron halo, several head-tail radio galaxies, and two...
