The Perseus Region in the Light of MAGIC — •Dorothee Hildebrand — ETH Zurich, Institute for Particle Physics, 8093 Zurich, Switzerland

The Center of the Perseus cluster is an interesting target for Very High Energy (VHE) Gamma-ray Observations. There are three different physics processes that could contribute to a VHE signal: emission from the central giant radio galaxy NGC-1275, emission from hadronic interaction of cosmic rays with the inter-cluster medium, and emission from hypothetical dark matter annihilation.

This talk reports about recent observations of this region by MAGIC, including the detection of Very High Energy emission from NGC-1275 and the head-tail galaxy IC-310.
