1 Hard X-Rays & Gamma-Rays Induced by Ultra High Energy Proton Acceleration in Cluster Accretion Shocks Susumu Inoue Felix Aharonian Naoshi Sugiyama (NAO Japan) accretion (inc. minor merger) p acceleration to E~10 18-19 eV -> p+  CMB → p+ e + e - E~10 15-16 eV -> e + e - +B(~  G) →syn. E  ~10 1-3 keV e + e - +  CMB →IC E  ~TeV (MPIK Heidelberg) paper in prep.

2 shock formation in clusters hierarchical, dark matter-driven structure formation → merger & accretion shocks → gas heating + nonthermal particle acceleration → nonthermal radiation accretion (minor merger) e.g. Ryu et al. 03 strong (high M ) shock

Aharonian 02 Rordorf et al. 04 traces shock traces gas e.g. Waxman & Loeb 00 Gabici & Blasi 03 e.g. Dar & Shaviv 95 Völk et al. 96 Berezinsky et al. 97

6 emitted luminosity Coma-like cluster - large radiative efficiency from protons - hard (  ~-1.5) spectrum

7 emitted flux > TeV absorption by IRB, CMB Coma-like cluster at D=100 Mpc

8 emitted flux extended source sensitivity x (~3 deg/ang. res.) Coma-like cluster at D=100 Mpc caution: point source sensitivities

9 model vs Coma data perhaps not impossible? but need optimism radio something else

10 implications UHE p-induced emission in cluster accretion shocks probe of UHE proton acceleration probe of accretion shock probe of magnetic field at cluster outskirts probe of IR background

11 summary acceleration to E~10 18 -10 19 eV plausible efficient secondary pair production and emission -> sync. (hard X-MeV) detectable by ASTRO-E2/HXD, imagiable by NeXT -> IC (TeV) detectable by HESS and other current IACTs UHE p-induced emission in cluster accretion shocks contribution to extragalactic gamma background nonlinear effects in proton acceleration … more efficient than primary IC, p-p  0 next steps
