abstract
We review the present theoretical and numerical understanding of magnetic field amplification in cosmic large-scale structure, on length scales of galaxy clusters and beyond. Structure formation drives compression and turbulence, which amplify tiny magnetic seed fields to the microGauss values that are observed in the intracluster medium. This process is intimately connected to the properties of turbulence and the microphysics of the intra-cluster medium. Additional roles are played by merger induced shocks that sweep through the intra-cluster medium and motions induced by sloshing cool cores. The accurate simulation of magnetic field amplification in clusters still poses a serious challenge for simulations of cosmological structure formation. We review the current literature on cosmological simulations that include magnetic fields and outline theoretical as well as numerical challenges.

Chaotic Cold Accretion reproduces the observed near-linear black hole mass-bolometric luminosity scaling (slope 0.91) in z>2 quasars while Bondi accretion underpredicts by ~2 dex.
MHD simulations indicate that SKA-Mid Band 5a can detect filamentary polarized emission from ICM magnetic fields at high resolution and sensitivity, allowing inference of turbulence driving scales.
This review chapter summarizes the cosmic web's theoretical framework, recent radio observations of diffuse gas, and the expected impact of the SKA on detecting baryons in filaments and cluster outskirts.
