The Faraday rotation effect, quantified by the Rotation Measure (RM), is a powerful probe of the large-scale magnetization of the Universe - tracing magnetic fields not only on galaxy and galaxy cluster scales but also in the intergalactic…

We take advantage of the wealth of rotation measures data contained in the NRAO VLA Sky Survey catalogue to derive new, statistically robust, upper limits on the strength of extragalactic magnetic fields. We simulate the extragalactic…

Cosmological simulations predict that an intergalactic magnetic field (IGMF) pervades the large scale structure (LSS) of the Universe. Measuring the IGMF is important to determine its origin (i.e. primordial or otherwise). Using data from…

Faraday rotation (RM) probes of magnetic fields in the universe are sensitive to cosmological and evolutionary effects as $z$ increases beyond $\sim $1 because of the scalings of electron density and magnetic fields, and the growth in the…

Context. The existence of magnetic fields in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is largely unconstrained. Their detection is important as magnetic fields can have a significant impact on the evolution of the CGM and, in turn, the fields can…

Large-scale intergalactic magnetic fields may contain a mixture of galactic and cosmogenic contributions, that can be probed via observations of $\gamma$-ray "echo" - a delayed emission from electromagnetic cascades initiated by the highest…
