Extragalactic magnetic fields unlikely generated at the electroweak phase transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we show that magnetic fields generated at the electroweak phase transition are most likely too weak to explain the void magnetic fields apparently observed today unless they have considerable helicity.

Fast Radio Bursts as Probes of Magnetic Fields in Galaxies at z < 0.5

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a sample of nine fast radio bursts (FRBs) from which we derive magnetic field strengths of the host galaxies represented by normal, z < 0.5 star-forming galaxies with stellar masses M _* ≈ 10 ^8 –10 ^10.5 M _⊙ .

A Numerical Model for the Propagation of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays through Extragalactic Magnetic Fields

open access: yes, 2017
We present a novel numerical model for the propagation of ultra-high energy charged particles in the intergalactic medium, assumed to have a cellular structure of coherent magnetic fields. We take into account the diffusion of ultrarelativistic particles

On irregularities in the cosmic ray spectrum of \(10^{16}-10^{18}\) eV range

open access: yesSciPost Physics Proceedings, 2023
Existing small, medium and large arrays for the study of cosmic rays of ultra-high energies are aimed for obtaining information about our galaxy and extragalactic space, namely to search and study astronomical objects that produce the flux of ...

Time dependence of AGN pair echo, and halo emission as a probe of weak extragalactic magnetic fields

open access: yes, 2017
Gamma-rays with energy exceeding 100 GeV emitted by extragalactic sources initiate cascades in the intergalactic medium. The angular and temporal distribution of the cascade photons that arrive at the Earth depend on the strength and configuration of ...

On the vertigo due to static magnetic fields. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Vertigo is sometimes experienced in and around MRI scanners. Mechanisms involving stimulation of the vestibular system by movement in magnetic fields or magnetic field spatial gradients have been proposed.

FERMI/LAT OBSERVATIONS OF 1ES 0229+200: IMPLICATIONS FOR EXTRAGALACTIC MAGNETIC FIELDS AND BACKGROUND LIGHT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report the observation in the GeV band of the blazar 1ES 0229+200, which over recent years has become one of the primary sources used to put constraints on the extragalactic background light (EBL) and extragalactic magnetic field (EGMF).
