Session Chair: | Sean Dougherty |
The understanding of the origins of cosmic magnetism and its effect in diverse astrophysical processes throughout the universe is a growing research field. It is one of the key science topics for the SKA, and the intrinsic polarization of the CMBR probes the physics within the first moments after the Big Bang. This session will review the science, instruments, experiments and results that define the state of the art in this field.
