Starting with an overview of 21st century instrumentation to observe astrophysical magnetic fields, the chapters cover observational techniques, origin of magnetic fields, magnetic turbulence, basic processes in magnetized fluids, the role of magnetic fields for cosmic rays, in the interstellar medium and for star formation. Written by a group of leading experts the book represents an excellent overview of the field. Nonspecialists will find sufficient background to enter the field and be able to appr. 000725073 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 7, 2015). 000725073 650_0 $$aCosmic magnetic fields. 000725073 650_0 $$aPlasma astrophysics. 000725073 7001_ $$aLazarian, Alexander,$$eeditor. 000725073 7001_ $$aPino, E.
