Observations of Faraday rotation and synchrotron emission in galaxy clusters imply large-scale magnetic fields with $\mu\mathrm{G}$ strengths possibly extending back to $z=4$. Non-radiative cosmological simulations of galaxy clusters show a…

Three-dimensional electron phase space holes are shown to be positive charges on the plasma background which produce a radial electric field and force the trapped electron component into an azimuthal drift. In this way electron holes…
