2018 
We thank the staff of the GMRT that made these observations possible. GMRT is run by the National Centre for Radio Astrophysics of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. We thank Avishay Gal-Yam and Doron Kushnir for using the high-performance computing (HPC) facility WEXAC at the Weizmann Institute of Science. The Weizmann HPC facility is partly supported by the Israel Atomic Energy Commission—The Council for Higher Education—Pazi Foundation and partly by a research grant from The Abramson Family Center for Young Scientists. Development of the BOXFIT code was supported in part by NASA through grant NNX10AF62G issued through the Astrophysics Theory Program and by the NSF through grant AST-1009863. Simulations for BOXFIT version 2 have been carried out in part on the computing facilities of the Computational Center for Particle and Astrophysics (C2PAP) of the research cooperation "Excellence Cluster universe" in Garching, Germany. This work made use of the IAA-CSIC high-performance (HPC) and throughput (HTC) computing infrastructure. R.L. acknowledges support from the grant EMR/2016/007127 from Department of Science and Technology, India. R.L. thanks M. Govindankutty (IIST, Trivandrum) for generously providing computing facilities and ICTS, Bangalore for hospitality and computing facilities. J.B. acknowledges support from the CONICYT-Chile grant Basal-CATAPFB-06/2007 and FONDECYT Postdoctorados 3160439. R.S.-R. acknowledges support from ASI (Italian Space Agency) through the contract No. 2015-046-R.0 and from European Union Horizon 2020 Programme under the AHEAD project (grant agreement No. 654215). S.S. acknowledges support from the Feinberg Graduate School. R.S.-R. is grateful for the excellent support and advice from Rafael Parra (Computing Center, IAA-CSIC).
