Abstract

It is one of the greatest problems in cosmology when and how cosmological magnetic fields are generated. We show that density perturbations in the early universe generate magnetic field by considering an effect which is so tiny that it has been neglected so far. By following the evolution of perturbations numerically we give the spectrum of generated magnetic field and show the possibility that they act as seed fields for galactic magnetic fields.
