Scientific paper

The intracluster magnetic field of the Virgo supercluster of galaxies is investigated using an available data set of reliable Faraday rotation measures of extragalactic radio sources. No excess RM were detected. Taking relevant physical values of the Virgo into account, this null detection, however, cannot rule out the possibility that the strength of Virgo's intracluster magnetic field is as strong as that of Coma (1 μG). More RM data are substantiated for better understanding of the nature of Virgo's magnetic field.
