AbstractAn apparent connection is reported between the magnetic field strengths inside an electron, in newly born pulsars, and the sun. It is argued that the upper limit to the strength of magnetic field which seems to exist is that which would permit emission of a photon at the non-relativistic electron gyrofrequency, with energy of the order of the electron rest mass. The strongest magnetic fields at the surface of polar regions of pulsars conform to this. By equating approximately the rest mass of an electron to its magnetic energy, the same magnetic field is found inside the electron. It is proposed that magnetic field building ‘blocks’ called M-particles are formed by a variant of the electron-positron spin-zero annihilation. The particles become as tightly stacked as possible to form the macroscopic magnetic field of the newly born pulsar. The sun’s present magnetic moment is described by a pulsar-sized object at its centre, with the maximum packing of M-particles. The hypothesis may have a bearing on the formation of magnetic fields in celestial bodies, and on the secular variation of the magnetic fields of the sun and the Earth.

The problem of the origin of celestial bodies - stars, galaxies and their clusters - is discussed proceeding from the concept of superheavy strongly interacting elementary particles termed superhadrons.Starting from generalized Regge law the universal relationship between mass and intrinsic angular momentum of cosmic objects has been established. Expressions are obtained for parameters of stars and Universe via fundamental constants. The prediction of the global rotation of the Universe is discussed and the problems of cosmic magnetic fields and energy problem in active galaxies are considered.

Magnetic Fields are the crucial and most important ingredient involved in the processes of various violent activities in Active Galactic Nuclei and other celestial bodies. The generally accepted 2-sided symmetric-jets model of active galactic nuclei (AGN) does not include the magnetic fields. We present here the first direct detection of helical magnetic field in AGN, and the first direct detection of ejection of large scale magnetic fields from AGN. (CME) 2. The annular (helical) magnetic field is responsible for the collimation of the jet (through Pinch Effect) and may be of crucial importance for extraction of black hole rotational energy. 3. The CMEs are responsible for sporadic ejection of jet components in AGN, while the general accepted 2-sided jets pertain to the quiescent Jets. 4. Observations show that the CME with Asymmetric Jets can explain many phenomena and much of the morphological diversities in AGN.
