IllustrisTNG: The cosmic magnetic field strength

Video from the IllustrisTNG project Time evolution of the cosmic magnetic field strength. Blue/purple shows regions of low magnetic energy along filaments of the cosmic web, whereas orange and white indicate regions with significant magnetic energy inside halos and galaxies. The displayed region is taken from the TNG100 simulation and is 10 megaparsec wide. The Illustris TNG project is an ongoing series of large, cosmological magnetohydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formati
