To study some characteristics of the interstellar medium, observational data of pulsars with large Faraday rotation values (|RM|> 300 rad / m2) were used. It was suggested and justified that large |RM| values can be due to the contribution…

Radio quasar sightlines with strong MgII absorption lines display statistically enhanced Faraday Rotation Measures (RM) indicating the presence of additional magneto-active plasma with respect to sightlines free of such absorption. In this…
Obtaining observational constraints on the role of turbulent effects for the solar dynamo is a difficult, yet crucial, task. Without such knowledge, the full picture of the operation mechanism of the solar dynamo cannot be formed. The…
The origin of the first magnetic fields in the Universe is a standing problem in cosmology. Intergalactic magnetic fields (IGMFs) may be an untapped window to the primeval Universe, providing further constrains on magnetogenesis. We…
Large-scale coherent magnetic fields in the intergalactic medium are presumed to play a key role in the formation and evolution of the cosmic web, and in large scale feedback mechanisms. However, they are theorized to be extremely weak, in…

Both observations and modelling of magnetic fields in the diffuse interstellar gas of spiral galaxies are well developed but the theory has been confronted with observations for only a handful of individual galaxies. There is now sufficient…
Constraining dynamo theories of magnetic field origin by observation is indispensable but challenging, in part because the basic quantities measured by observers and predicted by modelers are different. We clarify these differences and…
Using cosmological MHD simulations of the magnetic field in galaxy clusters and filaments we evaluate the possibility to infer the magnetic field strength in filaments by measuring cross-correlation functions between Faraday Rotation…
The Galactic magnetic field, locally observed to be on the order of a few $\mu$G, is sufficiently strong to induce deflections in the arrival directions of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. We present a method that establishes measures of…
The physics of magnetic fields ($\textbf{B}$) and cosmic rays (CRs) have recently been included in simulations of galaxy formation. However, significant uncertainties remain in how these components affect galaxy evolution. To understand…
