Simulating large-scale structure formation with magnetic fields
arXiv:astro-ph/0601484 · doi:10.1002/asna.200610595
Abstract
In the past, different works based on numerical simulations have been presented to explain magnetic fields (MFs) in the large scale structure and within galaxy clusters. In this review, I will summarize the main findings obtained by different authors and - even if many details are still unclear - I will try to construct a consistent picture of our interpretation of large-scale magnetic fields based on numerical effort. I will also sketch how this is related to our understanding of radio emission and summarize some arguments where our theoretical understanding has to be improved to match the observations.
