A numerical model of resistive generation of intergalactic magnetic field at cosmic dawn

Miniati and Bell (2011) proposed a mechanism for the generation of magnetic seeds that is based the finite resistivity of the low temperature IGM in the high redshift universe. In this model, cosmic-ray protons generated by the first generation of galaxies, escape into the intergalactic medium carry...
