Detection of very-high energy γ-ray emission from NGC 1275 by the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +161

We report on the detection of very-high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-ray emission from NGC 1275, the central radio galaxy of the Perseus cluster of galaxies. The source has been d…

Constraining Cosmic Rays and Magnetic Fields in the Perseus Galaxy Cluster with TeV observations by the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +161

Galaxy clusters are being assembled today in the most energetic phase of hierarchical structure formation which manifests itself in powerful shocks that contribute to a substantial…

Observation of the Perseus cluster of galaxies with the MAGIC telescopes

Saverio Lombardi, Pierre Colin, Dorothee Hildebrand +4

The MAGIC telescopes performed a deep observation of the central region of the Perseus galaxy cluster in stereoscopic mode between October 2009 and February 2011. The nearly 85 hr…

MAGIC detection of VHE Gamma-ray emission from NGC 1275 and IC 310

Dorothee Hildebrand, Saverio Lombardi, Pierre Colin +5

The MAGIC Cherenkov telescopes observed the Perseus cluster sky region in stereo mode for nearly 90 hr from October 2009 to February 2011. This campaign led to the discovery of ver…

Cosmic ray transport in galaxy clusters: implications for radio halos and gamma-rays

Christoph Pfrommer, Torsten Ensslin, Francesco Miniati +1

Observations of giant radio halos provide unambiguous evidence for the existence of cosmic ray (CR) electrons and magnetic fields in galaxy clusters. The physical mechanism generat…
