Investigating Galaxy Clusters through Gamma-ray Emission
Francesco Miniati
We address the role of gamma-ray astronomy in the investigation of nonthermal processes in the large scale structure of the universe. Based on EGRET upper limits on nearby galaxy c…
Structure Shocks as a Source of Cosmic Rays in Clusters
T. W. Jones, Francesco Miniati, Dongsu Ryu +2
Shocks are a ubiquitous consequence of cosmic structure formation, and they play an essential role in heating galaxy cluster media. Virtually all of the gas in clusters has been pr…
Gamma-rays from the Large Scale Structure of the Universe
Francesco Miniati
Gamma-ray astronomy will play a crucial role in the investigation of nonthermal processes in the large scale structure of the universe. Particularly, galaxy clusters (GC) observati…
Evidence for Shock Acceleration and Intergalactic Magnetic Fields in a Large-Scale Filament of Galaxies ZwCl 2341.1+0000
Joydeep Bagchi, Torsten A. Ensslin, Francesco Miniati +4
We report the discovery of large-scale diffuse radio emission from what appears to be a large-scale filamentary network of galaxies in the region of cluster ZwCl 2341.1+0000, and s…
Inter-galactic Shock Acceleration and the Cosmic Gamma-ray Background
Francesco Miniati
We investigate numerically the contribution to the cosmic gamma-ray background from cosmic-rays ions and electrons accelerated at intergalactic shocks associated with cosmological…
