Diffuse Cluster-wide Radio Halos
Abstract
We will discuss the properties and origins of halos and relics including estimates of the cluster magnetic fields, and present results for a few recently discovered halos and relics. The electrons in the suprathermal high energy tail of the thermal gas distribution are likely to provide the seed particles for acceleration through mergers and turbulences to relativistic energies. These relativistic particles are then responsible for the synchrotron emission of the halos.
