Hi, I am mostly interested in electromagnetism (magnetohydrodynamics and plasma physics) as well as astrophysics and cosmology, both about fundamental theoretical questions and concrete engineered applications.
What are the applications of electromagnetism in astrophysics and cosmology?

In summary, electromagnetism plays a crucial role in astrophysics and cosmology, with various applications in understanding the behavior and properties of celestial objects. It helps explain the formation and evolution of stars and galaxies, as well as the dynamics of cosmic structures such as black holes and pulsars. Electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, radio waves, and X-rays, is also used to study the composition and temperature of distant objects in the universe. Furthermore, the application of electromagnetism in astrophysics has led to significant discoveries such as the cosmic microwave background radiation, which provides strong evidence for the Big Bang theory. Overall, electromagnetism is a fundamental force in the study of the universe and continues to play a vital role in
