Description
Relativistic particles are revealed in clusters of galaxies from observations of diffuse synchrotron radio emission. At least part of this emission can be originated by secondary electrons produced by cosmic-ray protons interacting with the protons of the intra-cluster medium. This should be accompanied by the production of gamma rays, potentially detectable by the Fermi satellite and Cherenkov telescopes, and neutrinos, potentially detectable by IceCube. I will present the latest constraints and predictions.
