Hadronic processes in the low-luminosity radio galaxy IC310

The active radio galaxy IC310 is one of brightest objects of the Perseus cluster in the radio wavelengths and X-rays. This source has been detected in radio, X rays and rays. Recently, a -ray flux at TeV energies was detected by the MAGIC Telescopes. We introduce a lepto-hadronic model to describe t...

Sumario:The active radio galaxy IC310 is one of brightest objects of the Perseus cluster in the radio wavelengths and X-rays. This source has been detected in radio, X rays and rays. Recently, a -ray flux at TeV energies was detected by the MAGIC Telescopes. We introduce a lepto-hadronic model to describe the spectral energy distribution (SED), radio to GeV photons as synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) emission and TeV photons as the result of the decay of neutral pions resulting from p interactions. For the p interactions, we assume that the seed photons are those around the second SSC peak. We show that this hadronic model describes successfully the TeV -ray photons at low state of this radio galaxy. Additionally, we compute the number of neutrinos expected to be detected in the IceCube neutrino telescope.
