Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The current radio astronomical interferometers, such as, for instance, LOFAR, MeerKAT, uGMRT, ASKAP and VLA, which are paving the way to the SKA, are providing breathtaking advances in our view of radio galaxies and galaxy clusters.
It is timely to review our current understanding and open questions of the radio galaxy phenomenon, the relation between radio galaxies and the surrounding environment, and of the origin of diffuse emission in galaxy clusters. The image quality and fidelity of the present observational facilities are unveiling unexpected details which are challenging our knowledge.
The aim of this Special Issue is to review our knowledge in the field, present the new challenges we are facing and discuss scientific prospects over the next decade, in the light of the capabilities of the SKA.
