Turbulent amplification of magnetic fields in laboratory laser-produced shock waves
X-ray1-3 and radio4-6 observations of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A reveal the presence of magnetic fields about 100 times stronger than those in the surrounding interstellar medium. Field coincident with the outer shock probably arises through a nonlinear feedback process involving cosmic rays...
