Magnetic fields within and beyond galaxy clusters

Dr. Federica Govoni (INAF - Osservatorio Astronomico di Cagliari, Italia)
Magnetic fields within and beyond galaxy clusters

The existence of magnetic fields associated with the intracluster medium is now well established and thanks to new radio observations and interpretative tools our knowledge on the strength and structure of these magnetic fields is rapidly improving. In this talk I will present observed properties of magnetic fields at the center of galaxy clusters and the evidence of magnetic fields in the space between the two galaxy clusters A399 and A401.
