Cosmic voids are magnetized at the level of at least $10^{-17}$ G on Mpc scales, as implied by blazar observations. We show that an electrically conducting plasma is present in the voids, and that, because of the plasma, \emph{diffusion}…
Magnetic fields are one of most concealed components of the universe. They are observed as part of the intergalactic medium and on galaxy cluster scales, however their origin and evolution is unclear. In this work we use the IllustrisTNG…
The origin of intergalactic magnetic fields is still a mystery and several scenarios have been proposed so far: among them, primordial phase transitions, structure formation shocks and galactic outflows. In this work we investigate how…
Galaxies are observed to host magnetic fields with a typical total strength of around 15microgauss. A coherent large-scale field constitutes up to a few microgauss of the total, while the rest is built from strong magnetic fluctuations over…
Astrophysical processes can contribute to magnetic fields within cosmic voids either through magnetized outflows from the astrophysical large-scale structure or through superposition of dipolar contributions from individual galaxies. Such…
We argue that ultra-high energy cosmic rays emitted by galaxy clusters result in electric currents in filaments of the large-scale structure that are sufficient to generate magnetic fields in voids of the magnitude of ~1e-12 G and the…
The existence of magnetic fields associated with the intracluster medium in clusters of galaxies is now well established through different methods of analysis. Magnetic fields are investigated in the radio band from studies of the rotation…
We present semi-analytical models for magnetisation of the void inter-galactic medium (IGM) by outflows from void galaxies. The number density of dark matter haloes in an under-dense region (i.e., void) is obtained using the excursion set…
Since magnetic fields in galaxies, galactic clusters and even void regions are observed, theoretical attempts to explain their origin are strongly motivated. It is interesting to consider that inflation is responsible for the origin of the…
The existence of magnetic fields associated with the intracluster medium in clusters of galaxies is now well established through different methods of analysis. The most detailed evidence for the presence of cluster magnetic fields comes…
We discuss the magnetic field influence on diffuse gamma-ray emission from extragalactic electromagnetic cascades initiated by ultra-high energy cosmic rays. Regions in space vary considerably in field strength: it is possibly of 10^(-12) G…
Recent rotation measure observations of a dozen or so galaxy clusters have revealed a surprisingly large amount of magnetic fields, whose estimated energy and flux are, on average, $\sim 10^{58}$ ergs and $\sim 10^{41}$ G cm$^2$,…
We present a series of cosmological magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations that simultaneously follow the formation of a galaxy cluster and evolution of magnetic fields ejected by an Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN). Specifically, we…
We propose a mechanism for the early generation of the mean Intracluster magnetic field in terms of magnetized galactic winds. These winds are the result of starburst phases of the cluster galaxies, assumed to produce the predominant…
We argue that clusters of galaxies have an intergalactic medium, which is permeated by strong magnetic fields and also has a contribution of pressure from cosmic rays. These two components of total pressure are probably highly time…
Magnetic fields of debated origin appear to permeate the Universe on all large scales. There is mounting evidence that supernovae produce not only roughly spherical ejecta and winds, but also highly relativistic jets of ordinary matter.…
Theory and simulations suggest that magnetic fields from radio jets and lobes powered by their central super massive black holes can be an important source of magnetic fields in the galaxy clusters. This is paper II in a series of studies…
The Universe at present is highly magnetized, with fields of the order of a few 10^-5 G and coherence lengths larger than 10 kpc in typical galaxies like the Milky Way. We propose that the magnetic field was amplified to this values already…
A framework is introduced for coupling the evolution of galactic magnetic fields sustained by the mean-field dynamo with the formation and evolution of galaxies in cold dark matter cosmology. Estimates of the steady-state strength of the…
Radio continuum observations of barred galaxies revealed strong magnetic fields of >= 50-100 muG in the circumnuclear starbursts. Such fields are dynamically important and give rise to magnetic stress that causes inflow of gas towards the…
