TL;DR: In this article, an isotropic diffusion coefficient with a value of 6.6 ± 0.2 × 1028 cm2 s-1 is found to fit best and is similar to what is seen in the Milky Way.
Journal ArticleDOI
XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL analysis of the Ophiuchus cluster of galaxies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the non-thermal hard X-ray emission in the Ophiuchus cluster of galaxies and investigated the physical properties of the nonthermal component and its interaction with the cosmic microwave background.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gamma rays as probes of cosmic-ray propagation and interactions in galaxies.
TL;DR: Gamma-ray observations have been pushing forward our understanding of the life cycle of cosmic rays in galaxies and, combined with advances in related domains, they have been challenging standard assumptions in the field and have spurred new developments in modelling approaches and data analysis methods as discussed by the authors.
