Record completeness
Claims
The halo detection rate in this high-redshift sample is lower than at intermediate redshift, but remains higher than the ≲10% occurrence generally predicted by theoretical models at z≳1.
That the visual or quantitative identification of diffuse emission is complete and unbiased, and that the SZ-selected sample has no significant selection bias against clusters without mergers or with faint halos.
MeerKAT observations detect radio halos in 27% of 30 massive clusters at z>1, a rate lower than at intermediate redshifts but above model predictions, with power-mass scaling similar to lower-z samples.
