NonThermal Phenomena in Clusters of Galaxies (MA4) Research at INAF: theory (plasma astrophysics: cosmic rays, acceleraCon mechanisms, etc. ) and observaCons (in the radio, Xrays (soI+hard), γrays bands). TheoreCcal research would benefit of a more transversal view within MA4, i.e.; plasma astrophysics from clusters of galaxies to supernova remnants and AGN/radio galaxies. INAF should recognize the importance of plasma astrophysics (and theory in general) thus promoCng the coordinaCon of theorists through different channels (PRIN, PhD scholarships, staff permanent posiCons).
