Summary Cosmic rays in galaxy clusters 1 Characteristics of the CRs in clusters: CR proton pressure: time integrated non-equilibrium activities of clusters, modulated by recent mergers. Primary CR electron pressure: resembles current accretion and merging shocks in the virial regions. 2 Non-thermal cluster emission Unified model for the generation of giant radio halos, radio mini-halos, and relics We predict GLAST to detect ten γ-ray clusters: test of the presented scenario exciting experiments allow a complementary view on structure formation as well as fundamental plasma physics!
