Turbulence and Particle Acceleration in Giant Radio Haloes: the Origin of Seed Electrons

Anders Pinzke, S. Peng Oh, Christoph Pfrommer

About 1/3 of X-ray-luminous clusters show smooth, Mpc-scale radio emission, known as giant radio haloes. One promising model for radio haloes is Fermi-II acceleration of seed relat…

Deep observation of the NGC 1275 region with MAGIC: search of diffuse gamma-ray emission from cosmic rays in the Perseus cluster

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +154

Clusters of galaxies are expected to be reservoirs of cosmic rays (CRs) that should produce diffuse gamma-ray emission due to their hadronic interactions with the intra-cluster med…

Constraints on the cosmic ray cluster physics from a very deep observation of the Perseus cluster with MAGIC

Pierre Colin, Fabio Zandanel, Monica Vazquez Acosta +3

Galaxy clusters are the largest and most massive gravitationally bound structures known in the Universe. Cosmic-Ray (CR) hadrons accelerated at structure formation shocks and injec…

Turbulence and Particle Acceleration in Giant Radio Halos: the Origin of Seed Electrons

Anders Pinzke, S. Peng Oh, Christoph Pfrommer

About 1/3 of X-ray-luminous clusters show smooth, unpolarized radio emission on ~Mpc scales, known as giant radio halos. One promising model for radio halos is Fermi-II acceleratio…

MAGIC Gamma-ray Observations of the Perseus Galaxy Cluster

Fabio Zandanel, Pierre Colin, Saverio Lombardi +6

In order to detect the gamma-ray emission from cosmic ray (CR) interactions with the intra-cluster medium, the ground-based imaging Cherenkov telescope MAGIC conducted the deepest-…

Constraints on Cosmic Rays, Magnetic Fields, and Dark Matter from Gamma-Ray Observations of the Coma Cluster of Galaxies with VERITAS and Fermi

T. Arlen, T. Aune, M. Beilicke +81

Observations of radio halos and relics in galaxy clusters indicate efficient electron acceleration. Protons should likewise be accelerated, suggesting that clusters may also be sou…
