Query: The origin, evolution and signatures of primordial magnetic fields   The universe is magnetized on all scales probed so far. On the largest
scales, galaxies and galaxy clusters host magnetic fields at the micro Gauss
level coherent on scales up to ten kpc. Recent observational evidence suggests
that even the intergalactic medium in voids could host a weak $\sim 10^{-16}$
Gauss magnetic field, coherent on Mpc scales. An intriguing possibility is that
these observed magnetic fields are a relic from the early universe, albeit one
which has been subsequently amplified and maintained by a dynamo in collapsed
objects. We review here the origin, evolution and signatures of primordial
magnetic fields. After a brief summary of magnetohydrodynamics in the expanding
universe, we turn to magnetic field generation during inflation and other phase
transitions. We trace the linear and nonlinear evolution of the generated
primordial fields through the radiation era, including viscous effects.
Sensitive observational signatures of primordial magnetic fields on the cosmic
microwave background, including current constraints from Planck, are discussed.
After recombination, primordial magnetic fields could strongly influence
structure formation, especially on dwarf galaxy scales. The resulting
signatures on reionization, the redshifted 21 cm line, weak lensing and the
Lyman-$\alpha$ forest are outlined. Constraints from radio and $\gamma$-ray
astronomy are summarized. Astrophysical batteries and the role of dynamos in
reshaping the primordial field are briefly considered. The review ends with
some final thoughts on primordial magnetic fields.
