Sigl, Miniati & Enßlin, ‘03  UHECRs isotropization (?) observer position

40 MAP OF DEFLECTIONS around “Virgo” cluster
3/28/2017 MAP OF DEFLECTIONS around “Virgo” cluster

41 Preliminary results Dolag, Grasso et al 03 Significant deflections are obtained only when UHECRs cross a rich cluster of galaxies at a distance < few Mpc’s In the filaments, where  deflections in filaments are neglibible MF strength around the local group is UHECRs are not isotropized !!

42 Concluding UHECRs can map Magnetic Fields in Intergalactic Medium ( B ~ nG) and the Galaxy (polarization). Need complete simulations + Better UHECR data Watch for Auger S + N

43 MSPH simulations of MFs in rich clusters
Dolag, Bartelmann & Lesch, ‘99, ‘02 MSPH (Magnetic-SPH) simulations implement the SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) strategy by adding MHD equations (Faraday equation) SPH: N-BOBY SIMULATIONS of DM + GAS + MAGNETIC FIELDS Initial conditions ( z ~ 20) : density fluctuation field compatible with -CDM + seed magnetic field MAGNETIC FIELD AMPLIFICATION: (frozen-in field) + non-linear MHD amplification due to the presence of shocks and turbulence

44 They succeed to reproduce observations if
3/28/2017 Predictions for -CDM RMs B(R) Dolag, Baterlmann & Lesch ’02 They succeed to reproduce observations if The memory of the initial MF geometrical structure is lost

45 are below experimental sensitivity if
Deflections induced by the smooth component of the cosmic MF: are below experimental sensitivity if This is consistent with the UHECRs – BL-Lacs correlation ! Probability to cross a rich cluster outside the LSC for a CR coming from d < 1000 Mpc: Deflections have to be dominated by EGMF in the local universe It is consistent with hints of anisotropies in the UHECRs – BL-Lacs correlation

46 Need simulations of EGMF in the LSC ?
Close clusters and filaments have the largest cross section. Constrained simulations of EGMF in the LSC A realistic map of deflections in order to be able to trace UHECRs back to the source the EGMF in our surroundings deflections may differ considerably depending whether we leave or not in an extended magnetized bubble

47 Constrained MSPH simulation of the LSC
3/28/2017 Constrained MSPH simulation of the LSC The goal is to produce a realistic map of MF in the LSC Initial conditions on density fluctuations are constrained so that the simulated smoothed density field is equal to that inferred from observations Kolatt ’96 Mathis et al. ‘01 dark matter only ( IRAS survey)

48 3/28/2017 Conclusions MSPH simulations account for observed EGMF in rich clusters without requiring a strong smooth component in the IGM The “maximal” EGMF compatible with observations give rise to significant UHECR deflections only when they cross or skim clusterized regions This is consistent with the claimed UHECR-BL Lacs correlation MSPH constrained simulations will provide soon maps of UHECR deflections to be compared with data from high statistics experiments they will allow a more reliable source identification provide a deeper insight on the nature of cosmological magnetic fields Preliminary results suggest that UHECR astronomy may be possible

49 The BL-Lacs – UHECR Connection
3/28/2017 The BL-Lacs – UHECR Connection Tinyakov & Tkachev ’01a Small angle clustering: Very likely, sources of UHECR are pointlike ! ● Correlation with -ray-loud BL-Lacs: Accounting for deflection by MF in the Galaxy correlation improves for charged +1 particles Tinyakov and Tkachev ’01b
