CMB limits on large-scale magnetic fields in an inhomogeneous universe


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We use the cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropy to place limits on large-scale magnetic fields in an inhomogeneous (perturbed Friedmann) universe. If no assumptions are made about the spacetime geometry, only a weak limit can be deduced directly from the CMB. In the special case where spatial inhomogeneity is neglected to first order, the upper limit is much stronger, i.e. a few nano-G
