current evidence for nonthermal emission: Coma1. introduction radio Giovannini et al. 93 hard X-ray Fusco-Femiano et al. 04 Rossetti & Molendi 04 4.8 detection no detection gamma-rayno clear evidence yet! GeV Reimer et al. 03 EUV Bowyer et al. 04 TeV Perkins et al. 06 Renaud et al. astro-ph/0606114

large scale structure formation (SF) shocks formation of galaxies, groups, clusters... = hierarchical, dark matter-driven mergers and accretion → shock formation → gas heating + nonthermal particle acceleration → nonthermal radiation cosmological hydro simulations by Ryu et al. 03 shock velocitiesthermal emission clusters are forming this very moment!

cluster accretion shocks accretion (minor merger) (major) merger Ryu et al. 03 strong (high M ) shock -> high injection, hard spectra weak (low M ) shock -> low injection, soft spectra crucial for nonthermal high energy phenomena
