Abstract
Magnetic fields of unknown origin appear to permeate the Universe on all large scales. We suggest that the winds and cosmic rays, which are produced by the spherical ejecta and jets from supernova explosions, magnetize the interstellar medium in galaxies, the intracluster medium in galaxy clusters, and the intergalactic space. We show that, if the cosmic rays generate magnetic fields in rough energy equipartition with the cosmic rays, the predicted magnetic-field strengths coincide with the ones observed.
