• The Astrophysics of Ultrahigh-Energy Cosmic Rays (2011, background): “Since very little is known about cosmic magnetic fields (for recent reviews see, e.g., Beck 2008; Kulsrud & Zweibel 2008; Vallée 2004; Widrow 2002; Kronberg 1994), the parameter space for an accurate description is quite large.”
• The Outer Scale of Turbulence in the Magnetoionized Galactic Interstellar Medium (2008, background): “A pitch angle of 12 (Vallée 2004) is assumed, but a pitch angle of 0 gives no significant changes.”
• The Spiral Arms and Interarm Separation of the Milky Way: An Updated Statistical Study (2005, background): “The Sun is not located in an arm but in a stellar spur (not shown); for a recent review, see Olano (2001) and Vallée (2004).”
• Planck 2015 results: XIX. Constraints on primordial magnetic fields (2015, unknown): “In addition to the ubiquitous presence of magnetic fields in the Universe, astrophysical observations show that some galaxies might have a helical magnetic field structure (Widrow 2002; Vallée 2004).”
• Heating Hot Atmospheres with Active Galactic Nuclei (2007, background): “Faraday rotation measurements of background radio galaxies and radio galaxies within clusters have revealed that the intracluster gas is threaded with magnetic fields (Carilli & Taylor 2002; Kronberg 2003; Govoni & Feretti 2004; Vallée 2004).”
• BLAZARS AS ULTRA-HIGH-ENERGY COSMIC-RAY SOURCES: IMPLICATIONS FOR TeV GAMMA-RAY OBSERVATIONS (2011, background): “Clusters of galaxies are known to haveBEG ∼ 0.1− 1 µG (e.g., Vallée 2004), and recent simulations have suggested that filaments haveBEG ∼ 1− 10 nG (Ryu et al. 2008; Das et al. 2008, and see also, e.g., Donnert et al. 2009), which are larger than levels expected for the IGMF in voids, and galaxies…”
• NONSTEADY ACCRETION IN PROTOSTARS (2008, background): “…al. 2008), local disk simulations in which the mean field is allowed to evolve because of the boundary conditions (Brandenburg et al. 1995), and observations of the galactic disk (Vallee 2004) all exhibit a “mean” azimuthal field when an average is taken over areas of & H2 in the plane of the disk.”
