Description

In 2010, it was first reported that weak and large scale magnetic fields (MFs) were observed in void regions. These void MFs may share their origin with galactic/galaxy cluster MFs in primordial MFs. Thus a theoretical research on the generation of primordial MFs is now strongly motivated. I seek the possibility that primordial MFs is produced during inflation and find not only several interesting implications for inflationary magnetogenesis model building but also further observational connections.
