The largest magnetic fields in the universe may have found themselves charged up by dust batteries when the first stars began to shine.
The largest magnetic fields in the universe may have found themselves charged up when the first stars began to shine, according to new research.
But astronomers also find magnetic fields at the very largest of scales, with weak but persistent fields spanning across galaxies or even galaxy clusters. These fields are usually no stronger than a millionth the strength of the Earth’s, but they can reach for millions of light years in length.has put forward and intriguing hypothesis.
When the next generation of stars came online their powerful radiation shown through all the gas and dust surrounding them. That radiation was so powerful that it could literally push on the dust grains.
