Modelling the Energy Spectra of Radio Relics

Radio relics are diffuse synchrotron sources that illuminate shock waves in the intracluster medium. In recent years, radio telescopes have provided detailed observations about relics. Consequently, cosmological simulations of need to provide a similar amount detail. this methodological work, we include information on adiabatic compression and expansion, which been neglected past modelling simulation merging galaxy cluster, follow energy spectra accelerated cosmic-ray electrons using Lagrangian tracer particles. On board each particle, compute temporal evolution spectrum under influence radiation, inverse Compton scattering, expansion. Exploratory tests show total power and, hence, integrated not sensitive processes. This is attributed small changes ratio over time.
