Radio observations of galaxy clusters show that the intra cluster medium is permeated by \mu G magnetic fields. The origin and evolution of these cosmological magnetic fields is currently not well understood and so their impact on the…

Cosmological simulations still lack numerical resolution or physical processes to simulate dwarf galaxies in sufficient details. Accurate numerical simulations of individual dwarf galaxies are thus still in demand. We aim at (i) studying in…
