Modern radio telescopes are routinely reaching depths where normal starforming galaxies are the dominant observed population. Realising the potential of radio as a tracer of star formation and black hole activity over cosmic time involves achieving such depths over representative volumes, with radio forming part of a larger multiwavelength campaign. In pursuit of this we used the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to image \\(\\sim\\)5 deg\\(^{2}\\) of the VIDEO/XMM-LSS extragalactic deep field at 1--2 GHz. We achieve a median depth of 16 \\(\\mu\\)Jy beam\\(^{-1}\\) with an angular resolution of 4.5\\arcsec. Comparisons with existing radio observations of XMM-LSS showcase the improved survey speed of the upgraded VLA: we cover 2.5 times the area and increase the depth by \\(\\sim\\)20\\% in 40\\% of the time. Direction-dependent calibration and wide-field imaging were required to suppress the error patterns from off-axis sources of even modest brightness. We derive a catalogue containing 5,762 sources from the final mosaic. Sub-band imaging provides in-band spectral indices for 3,458 (60\\%) sources, with the average spectrum becoming flatter than the canonical synchrotron slope below 1 mJy. Positional and flux-density accuracy of the observations, and the differential source counts are in excellent agreement with those of existing measurements. A public release of the images and catalogue accompanies this article.

Astronomers performing polarimetric analysis on astronomical images often have to manually identify locations on their objects of interest, such as galaxies, which exhibit the influence of magnetic forces due to interaction with their environments or inherent processes. These locations are known as Lines of Sight (LoS). Analysing the various lines of sight can provide insight into the electromagnetic nature of the astrophysical object in question and its surroundings. For each LoS, astronomers generate diagnostic plots to map out the variation of the corresponding electromagnetic field, such as those of fractional polarisation and Faraday spectra. However, associating the different LoS diagnostic plots to their positions on an astronomical image requires alternating between the plots and the images. As a result, determining whether the location of the LoS influences its magnetic field variation by analysing its diagnostic plots becomes arduous due to the absence of a direct way of linking the two. PolarVis is an effort towards allowing an almost instant view of the interactive diagnostic plots corresponding to a given line of sight at the click of a button on that line of sight on the image, using an interactive web-based FITS viewer -- JS9.

During their lifetime, galaxy clusters grow through the accretion of matter from the filaments of the large scale structure and from mergers with other clusters. These mergers release a large amount of energy into the intracluster medium (ICM) through merger shocks and turbulence. These phenomena are associated with the formation of radio sources known as radio relics and radio halos, respectively. Radio relics and halos are unique proxies to study the complex properties of these dynamically active regions of clusters and in general the micro physics of the ICM. Abell 3667 is a spectacular examples of a merging system hosting a large pair of radio relics. Due to its proximity (z=0.0553) and large mass, the system enables the study of these sources to a uniquely high level of detail. We observed Abell 3667 with MeerKAT as part of the MeerKAT Galaxy Cluster Legacy Survey. We used these data to study the large scale emission of the cluster, including its polarisation and spectral properties. We present the most detailed view of the radio relic system in Abell 3667 to date, with a resolution reaching 3 kpc. The relics are filled with a network of filaments with different spectral and polarisation properties that are likely associated with multiple regions of particle acceleration and local enhancements of the magnetic field. Conversely, the magnetic field in the space between filaments has strengths close to that expected in unperturbed regions at the same cluster-centric distance. Comparisons with MHD simulations supports the idea of filaments as multiple acceleration sites. Our observations also confirm the presence of an elongated radio halo, developed in the wake of the bullet-like sub-cluster that merged from the South-East. Finally, we associate the process of magnetic draping to a thin polarised radio source surrounding the remnant of the bullet's cool core.

ESO 149-G003 is a close-by, isolated dwarf irregular galaxy. Previous observations with the ATCA indicated the presence of anomalous neutral hydrogen (HI) deviating from the kinematics of a regularly rotating disc. We conducted follow-up observations with the MeerKAT radio telescope during the 16-dish Early Science programme as well as with the MeerLICHT optical telescope. Our more sensitive radio observations confirm the presence of anomalous gas in ESO 149-G003, and further confirm the formerly tentative detection of an extraplanar HI component in the galaxy. Employing a simple tilted-ring model, in which the kinematics is determined with only four parameters but including morphological asymmetries, we reproduce the galaxy's morphology, which shows a high degree of asymmetry. By comparing our model with the observed HI, we find that in our model we cannot account for a significant (but not dominant) fraction of the gas. From the differences between our model and the observed data cube we estimate that at least 7%-8% of the HI in the galaxy exhibits anomalous kinematics, while we estimate a minimum mass fraction of less than 1% for the morphologically confirmed extraplanar component. We investigate a number of global scaling relations and find that, besides being gas-dominated with a neutral gas-to-stellar mass ratio of 1.7, the galaxy does not show any obvious global peculiarities. Given its isolation, as confirmed by optical observations, we conclude that the galaxy is likely currently acquiring neutral gas. It is either re-accreting gas expelled from the galaxy or accreting pristine intergalactic material.
