Astrophysical Magnetic Fields

Astrophysical magnetic fields play a crucial role in shaping cosmic phenomena. They influence star formation, drive jets and outflows from black holes, and affect the behavior of interstellar and intergalactic matter. Magnetic fields are integral to the dynamics of accretion disks around celestial objects and contribute to the structure of galaxies. Studying these fields helps us understand the forces governing the universe's large-scale structure and evolution.
