Scientific paper

Using ENZO, a 3D adaptive mesh cosmological simulation code, we look at the characteristics of magnetic fields generated in early structure formation by the Biermann battery process. Tracking six species (H, H+, He, He+, He++ and e-), we follow the formation of structure from multiple independent realizations of cosmological initial conditions to better understand how magnetic fields are generated by non aligned pressure and density gradients. These efforts aim at adding ideal MHD to the ENZO framework which will enable the study of the build up and evolution of cosmic magnetic fields.
