Abstract (from CDS):

The presence of non-thermal electrons and large-scale magnetic fields in the intracluster medium is known through the detection of megaparsec (Mpc) scale diffuse radio synchrotron emission. Although a significant amount of progress in finding new diffuse radio sources has happened in the last decade, most of the investigation has been constrained towards massive low-redshift clusters. In this work, we explore clusters with redshift z > 0.3 in search of diffuse radio emission, at 325 MHz with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. This campaign has resulted in the discovery of two new radio haloes (SPT-CL J0013-4906 and SPT-CL J0304-4401) along with two other detections (SPT-CL J2031-4037 and SPT-CL J2248-4431), previously reported (at 325 MHz) in the literature. In addition, we detect a halo candidate in one cluster in our sample, and upper limits for haloes are placed in eight clusters where no diffuse emission is detected. In the P1.4-LX plane, the detected haloes follow the observed correlation, whereas the upper limits lie above the correlation line, indicating the possibility of future detection with sensitive observations.
