The most accurate measurements of magnetic fields in star-forming gas are based on the Zeeman observations analyzed by Crutcher et al. (2010). We show that their finding that the 3D magnetic field scales approximately as density$^{0.65}$…

We assess the principal statistical and physical uncertainties associated with the determination of magnetic field strengths in clusters of galaxies from measurements of Faraday rotation (FR) and Compton-synchrotron emissions. In the former…

The origin of magnetic fields in the Universe is an open problem in astrophysics and fundamental physics. Our present-day knowledge is limited to regions of strong magnetic fields and to star-forming disks of galaxies. Low-energy electrons…

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…

We investigate the capability of ongoing radio telescopes for probing Faraday rotation measure (RM) due to the intergalactic magnetic field (IGMF) in the large-scale structure of the universe which is expected to be of order $O(1) {\rm…

The amplitude of the magnetic field near the Galactic Centre has been uncertain by two orders of magnitude for several decades. On a scale of approximately 100 pc fields of approximately 1000 microG have been reported, implying a magnetic…

The Galactic magnetic field is an integral constituent of the interstellar medium (ISM), and knowledge of its structure is crucial to understanding Galactic dynamics. The Rotation Measures (RM) of extragalactic (EG) sources have been the…

Rotation measures of pulsars and extragalactic point sources have been known to reveal large-scale antisymmetries in the Faraday rotation sky with respect to the Galactic plane and halo that have been interpreted as signatures of the mean…

A weak fluctuating magnetic field embedded into a turbulent conducting medium grows exponentially while its characteristic scale decays. In the ISM and protogalactic plasmas, the magnetic Pr is very large, so a broad spectrum of growing…

We study the magnetic fields in galaxy clusters through Faraday rotation measurements crossing systems in different dynamical states. We confirm that magnetic fields are present in those systems and analyze the difference between relaxed…

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…
