The origin and dynamics of magnetic fields depend crucially on the dynamics of a gas in the Galaxy. In turn the magnetic field is needed to isotropize the cosmic rays (the influence on chemistry) and is of importance for the formation of stars (local dynamics). Thus the appearance of this topic at the Colloquium is justified.
