title = "Investigation of the diffuse IGM by cross-correlation studies",
abstract = "We present results from the first cross-correlation search for the synchrotron component of the diffuse intergalactic medium (IGM) in filamentary large scale structure (LSS). We used the low resolution (36') Bonn survey at 21cm, with the infrared 2MASS catalog as a tracer of the LSS. Synchrotron emission likely results from LSS formation shocks and feedback from AGN and galactic winds [2]. We determined 3σupper limits to the diffuse emission in units of flux per galaxy; these correspond to filament equipartition magnetic fields as low as 0.2 μG. The detection threshold for the average (peak) filament brightness is 1 (7) mK for 0.03",
