Schematic model for the synchrotron and SZ flux profiles for the A2256 relic at 10 GHz. The geometry assumes a ℳ = 2 shock propagating inward at roughly 500 kpc distance from the cluster center, and viewed at an angle of 40°. The black solid line is the synchrotron flux profile, and the blue dot-dashed line is the SZ profile. The red points are the measured 1.4 GHz flux density values from Clarke & Ensslin (2006), scaled to the considered frequency.
